Introduction to the ULIPs Unit-linked insurance plans, popularly known
as Ulips are life insurance policies which offer a mix of investment and insurance similar to traditional life insurance policies, but with one major difference.
Unlike traditional policies, in Ulips investment risk lies with the insured (i.e., policy holder) and not with the insurance company
Different types of charges under ULIPs
• Premium Allocation Charge• Fund Management Charge (FMC)• Policy Administration Charge• Surrender Charge• Switching Charge• Mortality charge• Rider premium charge• Partial withdrawal charge
Working of ULIPs
ULIPs work on the lines of mutual funds. The premium paid by the client (less any charge) is used to buy units in various funds (aggressive, balanced or conservative) floated by the insurance companies.
Units are bought according to the plan chosen by the policyholder. On every additional premium, more units are allotted to his fund.
