Financial Underwriting Guidelines Financial Underwriting is done for the following reasons: Need for insurance cover is present This is established if there is financial loss to the family/nominee in case of untimely death of the proposed life insured. Financial Eligibility Cover proposed is commensurate with the financial loss. This is essential to avoid over insurance as it could lead to anti selection. Affordability of Insurance Cover This is required to ensure that the policy owner is able to keep the policy in force to get the benefit for which the insurance is taken. This is termed as “Premium Payment Capacity”. Need for Insurance: Need for Insurance is established where the proposed insured is a earning through source such as employment or self employment or carrying out business. Certain individuals are engaged in regular work however are not paid for their regular duties (such as housewife / home maker) are eligible for insurance cover. However, those who are not earning are generally do not qualify for taking insurance, except insurance on their lives is purely considered as future financial planning through investment in long term insurance plan. Standard Financial Eligibility: Those who satisfy the first criteria of “Need for Insurance” will be insured subject to a maximum limit. No one can insure him / herself for unlimited amount and hence financial eligibility is required to be established for each insurable life. This eligibility is derived through a simple income multiplier factor. Maximum insurance cover (across all insurance providers) is determines as per the following table. Contd.

Non-Term U/W Guidelines Underwriting guidelines for Juvenile / Minor and Major Student Lives Juvenile / Student lives are dependent on their parents for financial security and hence do not qualify to get insurance cover on their lives.

In addition, certain amount of financial loss can be attributed to parents (in case of unfortunate death of child) if they have invested a significant amount of money on their child’s education which they could have otherwise used for retirement saving. However, it is essential that the parents are adequately insured so as to secure the feature of the child. Similarly, all the siblings should be covered for equal amount to avoid any anti selection against the insurer (e.g. a child which is ill or known to have a major life- threatening disease is only insured or insured for significantly large amount). ➢ Maximum Student Age is capped at 25 and Maximum cover for Student is capped at INR 5 Crore (This includes insurance cover taken from all insurance companies across the world). ➢ Any cover above 5 crore to be referred facultative to Reinsurer #Total Sum at Risk = Total in-force and lapsed (eligible revival /reinstatement) Life Insurance Cover (Death benefit) taken throughout the lifetime of an individual across the world. = Underwriters may call for Student ID Proof / Up to date immunization record / Income Proof / Standard Income Proof from proposed insured based on the underwriting assessment. ^List of Standard Income Proof is given above.
