Women take on multiple roles and responsibilities today and become their family’s primary breadwinners. However, when it comes to life insurance, not many are aware of how important it is for women. In unforeseen situations, life insurance for women can eliminate the financial stress a woman’s family may undergo in the woman’s absence.

Importance of Life Insurance for Women

  • Financial Security

    In case of any unfortunate event, your life insurance plan will pay out a death benefit to your family that will help them sustain their livelihood. This ensures that all their dreams are fulfilled even when you are not around.

  • Long-term Savings

    A life insurance policy helps you save money for your future goals. That way, you need not depend on loans and credit for funding your future financial commitments, such as caring for your parents and children or starting a new venture.

  • Debts and Liabilities

    In case you have unpaid loans and debts, in your absence, the burden of repaying these debts should not fall on your loved ones. The policy cover can protect their life savings by taking care of these loans and debts.

  • Retirement Planning

    As a woman, planning your own retirement gives you greater financial independence to acknowledge your needs at the later years of your life. With adequate financial resources during retirement, you can support your wellbeing and be a support to your family. 

  • Medical Emergencies

    In times of medical emergencies, your life insurance can protect you and your family against critical illnesses, accidental death, disability, etc., if you add the necessary optional riders to your insurance plan.

  • Income Tax Benefits

    You can get income tax# benefits on the premium amount paid and maturity benefits received on your life insurance policy.

  • Types Of Life Insurance for Women

    These are the different types of life insurance plans that should be availed of by women who have different life insurance needs, be it for their personal goals or protecting their family’s interests:

     

    Term Plans

    A term insurance plan is essential for a woman because it offers extensive life cover for her and her family at very affordable premiums than men. Since term plans are easily customizable and come with simple underwriting guidelines, such a policy can help women safeguard their family’s financial interests with ease. Moreover, women lives have a lower premium while applying for Term Insurance.

    In the event an untimely demise during the policy term, a woman can ensure that her family is financially secure and their goals are fulfilled. For instance, if a working woman whose is a contributor to her family’s income passes away during the policy term, the sum assured of her policy can act as an income replacement.

    The sum assured from a Tata AIA Life Insurance term insurance plan can help fund her children’s education, supplement her spouse’s income and enable her parents to procure senior health assistance.

    Savings Plans

    Savings plans offer a maturity benefit and a death benefit under the same policy, as applicable. You can choose between a money-back plan or an endowment plan, depending on how you want to save money and receive benefits basis your future goals and your family’s future financial needs.

    Money-back plans are helpful if one needs to fulfil their short-term goals as a survival benefit is paid out at regular intervals during the policy term. And if one survives the policy term, all the premium amount will be paid out as a maturity benefit. Thus, a woman can make other investments with this corpus or utilize the funds for purchasing a dream home, a car, a gift, a vacation, etc. 

    Meanwhile, endowment policies are savings plans that pay out a lump sum benefit on maturity and offer life cover protection to your loved ones. Endowment policies are beneficial for fulfilling long-term goals that need lump sum funding, such as your child’s further education, a new business venture, geriatric care for your parents and so on. 

    When you buy an endowment policy, you can start saving a certain amount of money in the form of premiums each month, quarter or on an annual basis. When it comes to the life cover under the Tata AIA Life Insurance savings plans, in case of your untimely demise before the policy maturity, your family will receive financial assistance in the form of the death benefit sum assured. With Tata AIA Fortune Guarantee Supreme, women insured get a 2% discount on 1st first year premium.

    Unit-Linked Insurance Plan (ULIP)

    A Unit-Linked Insurance Plan or ULIP offers the dual benefit of a life cover and market-linked$$ returns under a single policy. As a working woman, one can choose to invest in a range of ULIP funds per their investment goals and tenure and protect their family’s financial future in case of an eventuality.

    With regular investment in her choice of funds, a woman can steadily create investment opportunities to earn market-linked returns on maturity. Moreover, after the mandatory ULIP lock-in period of 5 years, the partial withdrawal facility gives her access to immediate funds that may be used to fulfil any emergency needs.

    Tata AIA Life Insurance wealth creation solutions offer a fund-switching feature wherein you can switch from one fund to another in case you are not satisfied with your current fund performance. This can help you align your investments with your expected returns and make the most of your ULIP.

    Retirement Plans

    Women also need to start planning their retirement in their 30s so that they can lead a financially secure life during their golden years. A retirement plan ensures that women can start saving for their future during their active service years and receive financial benefits when they retire.

    When planning for retirement, it is essential to determine how much life insurance coverage and funds will be necessary for the future. Hence, consider the rate of inflation while planning your retirement. This will also help you select which type of retirement plan is most suitable for your needs.

    Under an immediate annuity, you can invest a lump sum amount in the policy and receive the regular payouts soon after retirement. In contrast, the deferred annuity enables you to get a regular income after a fixed interval. Tata AIA Life Insurance retirement plans offer flexible life insurance coverage on both annuity plan options – an immediate and deferred annuity.

    Tata AIA Life Insurance plans are also flexible regarding including optional riders^^ in your life insurance policy. By paying an additional but nominal premium, you can get specific coverage for risks, such as critical illnesses, hospitalisation, accidental death, disability and much more!
