India’s Tata AIA Life Insurance has established an offshore branch within Gujarat International Finance Tech-City (GIFT City), India’s inaugural International Financial Services Centre (IFSC).
Through this branch, Tata AIA will offer US dollar-denominated life insurance solutions targeted at NRIs via its dedicated website.
The inaugural product, Life Protect Supreme, is a term life insurance plan that offers policy benefits in US dollars.
This plan is designed to address various risks including accident, disability, critical illness and death, with coverage extending up to the age of 100 years.
NRI consumers seeking life insurance will find flexibility in the five plan options available, allowing them to customise their coverage based on personal factors such as medical history, lifestyle and occupation.
All these options include the potential to add riders for additional benefits such as accidental death, critical illness cover, as well as a waiver of premium in case of accidental total and permanent disability.
