Aegon Life Insurance re-launches their “iTerm” online protection plan.

           This week I was present at the Aegon's Life Insurance event in Mumbai where the company discussed their upcoming plans for future. Aegon Life Insurance is one of the top companies in India which provides several Life Insurances. This week they introduced their latest offering which is the 'iTerm' plan, a detailed and comprehensive plan to provide online protection concerning Life Insurance and thereby keeping the cost on the small side without burning your pocket. This program is said to be one of the very few insurance plans which have the lowest premium rates available to the current date. According to the Swiss report, Aegon has relaunched their iTerm plan to focus on the shallow insurance expansion across India along with the households which have insurance but are currently instated as under insurance. The report further claims that India currently has the largest protection margin as the growth in savings & life insurance coverage had lagged the economy and wage growth across the nation. Even though there was an immense growth of insurance penetration, Both the savings & insurance have garnered only 10% of the population. Sometimes consumers neglect such important things as there's a lack of communication in the thought process of how the thing works and how it can benefit one from the same. So with the iTerm Plan, Aegon Life Insurance wants to pioneer and lead the Insurance market in India. So today, let's discuss more regarding the Aegon's iTerm Plan.
