Investment Flexibility

SHIKSHA PLUS SUPER gives policyholders an option to invest premiums in five investment funds offered by Max Life Insurance with a choice of Dynamic Fund Allocation and Systematic Transfer Plan. Dynamic Fund Allocation exempts the policyholders from selecting the investment funds manually as this one automatically invests between equity and debt structured funds in a pre-decided proportion that keeps getting revised as policy approaches maturity. This investment strategy aims to protect their fund from any risks by raising the fund allocation in debt funds as policy nears maturity. Systematic Transfer Plan, on the other hand, imitates the rupee cost averaging method hence letting the insured to gain from the market volatility.
