Edelweiss Tokio Life launches Total Protect Plus, a comprehensive protection solution

Addressing an emerging need for a one-stop protection solution amid a global pandemic, Edelweiss Tokio Life Insurance today announced the launch of Total Protect Plus, a comprehensive protection plan that offers additional optional benefits to meet goal-linked financial requirements.

Commenting on the new product, Subhrajit Mukhopadhyay, Executive Director, Edelweiss Tokio Life Insurance said, “Over the last decade, there has been a growing clamour for insurance solutions that are all-encompassing and comprehensive in securing financial risks. The pandemic has brought this need into the spotlight. With Total Protect Plus, we hope to provide an inclusive solution to manage customers’ risk and addresses financial needs for all their goals.”

Among its standout optional offerings are Child’s Future Protect and Live Long benefits.

Through Child’s Future Protect benefit, a parent can opt for an enhanced cover during their child’s growing years to ensure their aspirations are uncompromised. In case the insured parent dies before the child turns 25 years of age, an additional payout is made to the nominee.

Through the Live Long benefit, which is a survival benefit, this plan not only offers you protection, but also an income benefit that begins during your non-working years. An individual can choose either 60 years or 65 years as the commencement age, following which they receive an income equal to a certain percentage of the base sum assured.

“There is a higher awareness now for goal-based financial planning, wherein retirement and pure protection occupy a bigger mind space among customers. When designing products, our endeavour is to offer the best value proposition that addresses the existing need gap, be it in terms of a new product or the way existing solutions are offered in the marketspace,” Mukhopadhyay added.

Here are some other key factors that make Total Protect Plus an ideal protection plan:

– Offers a cover till 100 years of age, allowing individuals to leave behind a legacy to their loved ones

It’s Official: Edelweiss Tokio Life is a ‘Great Place to Work’

Chennai:  After a decade-long journey towards creating an inclusive and growth-oriented culture, Edelweiss Tokio Life Insurance has been ‘Great Place to Work – CertifiedTM‘ for its robust, employee-centric practices.

Vikas Bansal, Chief Human Resource Officer, Edelweiss Tokio Life Insurance said, “Life Insurance is a noble business, that serves to protect people’s dreams and aspirations. This business is heavily dependent on employee centricity, as they make way for innovation, excellence and customer centricity. Since inception, our focus has been to create policies and initiatives that nurture our employees and provide them a springboard for development in their personal careers, along with that of the company.”

This certification comes on the back of a noteworthy initiative launched by the insurer during the Covid 19 pandemic, called Edge. This initiative focuses on nurturing three aspects that are instrumental to a fulfilling stint for any employee – Growth, Development, and Impacting Lives.

Under the Growth pillar, the insurer has charted out a complete growth journey for every employee within the company. Through the Development pillar, the insurer has designed a complete functional, business, and personal learning journey for every employee. As a part of the Impacting Lives pillar, the insurer has created multiple initiatives to safeguard employees’ physical, emotional and financial wellbeing. This pillar also hopes to inculcate the spirit of responsible corporate citizenship.

“We are really proud of this achievement and believe it is the first step towards becoming a preferred employer in not only life insurance, but in India. It is a great motivator for us to continue creating a sustainable, diverse and inclusive culture for our employees,” Bansal added.
