“iTerm Prime is designed to encourage emerging India to gain access to life insurance. Self-employed individuals make up the majority of India’s working population, yet this segment remains underinsured. To make insurance accessible for them, we have simplified buying journeys and sped up underwriting by digitizing it. Besides this, we have introduced a special discount and flexible payment options to make the product more affordable for the end consumer,” said Satishwar B., MD and CEO of Aegon Life Insurance.
“The number of self-employed people in India stood at 333 million in 2021. This huge population did not have access to adequate term insurance in the past, primarily because of the extensive paperwork involved. At Aegon Life, we have simplified insurance with zero paperwork. All one needs to purchase insurance is his/her PAN, Aadhaar or driver’s license – no uploads or scans of documents required,” he added.
