We are built for times like these – role of life insurance during uncertainties

unwiredcp2020-06-12T10:19:25+00:00

At a time when a global pandemic has brought life to a standstill and affected almost every aspect of normal human activity: creating chaos in stock markets, crashing down interest rates, impacting GDP growth rates and economic activity on a global scale, we as a society are reminded of how unprepared we are in the face of future uncertainties. In such a scenario, we must recognize the potential of life insurance as an instrument which offers holistic financial protection for individuals and their families. To successfully navigate these unprecedented challenges and cope with uncertainties of life, we must learn to appreciate the importance of ‘Sum Assured’ that is embedded in all life insurance products. This can play the sheet anchor role in such turbulent times and help us emerge victorious in the aftermath of this storm.
