BACKAROUND

 

Subject was incorporated on 27 October, 2005 as a Company under the Companies Act, 1956 to undertake and carry on the business of life insurance. The Company has obtained a licence from the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority CIRDA') on 14 July, 2006 for carrying on the business of life insurance. The Company commenced its commercial activities on 22 August, 2006.

 

The Company's life insurance business comprises of individual life business comprising of participating, non-participating, unit-linked insurance products, pension products and group life non participating business.

 

 

OUTLOOK

 

Outlook for Indian economy continues to be subdued with several indicators of strong headwinds. Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy (CMIE) forecast GDP growth for FY 13 is at 7 6 per cent, against the estimated 6.8 per cent in FY 12.

 

Following the various market developments and continuing regulatory changes, the life insurance industry continues to experience a fall in new premiums during the current fiscal year ending March 2012. Over the past 16 months, the sector had witnessed negative growth due to revised ULIP pricing regulations and complete loss of Pension products as a segment. The Private players in life industry sector have witnessed negative growth of 24% during the FY 2011-12 basis weighted individual premium collection with most of the private players witnessing slowdown in the individual new business premium and more focusing on group business.

 

However, in the Eong run all ingredients are in place for the Indian life insurance industry to blossom into one of the fastest growing financial service market in The world. The ratio of life insurance premium to GDP in India is currently about 4 percent, much lower than developed market levels of 6 to 9 percent. The financial market is still in growth phase -rising income level and dramatic geographic shift driven by economic growth will lead to the emergence of distinct consumer segment that need to be served in fundamentally different ways.

 

 

Sixth year performance

 

Ø  FY 2011-12 has been the year of consolidation and key focus was on alignment of cost and revenue parameters to the current market reality. During this process headcount and branch infrastructure have been rationalized to sustain future growth and profitability. During the period fixed costs have been reduced by 27% as compared to FY 2010-11

 

Ø  To adapt itself to the new business scenario, building efficiency through optimal utilization of branch infrasTrucTure was the prime focus area of the company. As a result of the branch consolidation process, the total numbers of offices were reduced from 130 lasT year to 127 this year Frontline sales staff reduced by -33%. This restructuring process has reduced the number of branches without having an adverse impact on reach and customer service.

 

Ø  Between April 2011 to March 2012, sales declined by -39% compared to the same period last year basis weighted individual premium collected, this is mainly due to economy slowdown, continued impact of regulation change and headcount rationalisation However, the company has shown upward growth trend in the last quarter (1 S%) and March (29%) of FY 2011-12.

 

Ø  Post regulation change (September 2010). the company revamped its product portfolio in compliance with the revised regulations They successfully launched 8 new products across segments in FY 2011-12 with enhanced customer value and benefits. Today, they have one of the most extensive portfolios of insurance products and services in the industry, catering to a broad spectrum of customer segments. They have experienced significant improvement in customer scope score.

 

Ø  They have also launched one of the most competitive online term product "ePtotect" to cater to this customer segment

BHARTI AXA LIFE STRENGTHENS ITS HEALTH CATEGORY OFFERINGS

- Launches Hospi Cash Benefit Rider

- Takes Triple Health Insurance Plan to online platform

 

Mumbai, March 11, 2013: Bharti AXA Life Insurance, the private life insurance joint venture between Bharti Enterprises and AXA, the world’s largest insurance company, introduces Hospi Cash Benefit Rider - a unique solution that provides a fixed amount in case of hospitalization or surgery. Further, Bharti AXA Life Triple Health Insurance plan, a critical illness product is now also available online for customers to purchase.

 

Announcing the launch, Sandeep Ghosh, MD and CEO, Bharti AXA Life Insurance, said, “A recent study by Public Health Foundation of India revealed that per capita spending on hospitalization went up from 11.20 per cent in 2005 to 22.47 per cent in 2010. This is a cause of great concern as high cost should not be a deterrent for a patient looking for the best possible medical solution.”

 

Bharti AXA Life Hospi Cash Benefit Rider is a non-linked regular pay hospital and surgery cash insurance rider. Benefits of this rider include a fixed daily pay out in case of hospitalization and an additional daily pay out in case of hospitalization in ICU. In addition it also offers a lump sum benefit on undergoing a surgery on an individual policy. This rider can be taken with all the traditional products of Bharti AXA Life.

 

Bharti AXA Life has also launched the online version of India’s first triple benefit critical illness plan – ‘Bharti AXA Life Triple Health Insurance Plan’. The plan offers a cover of a maximum of three times the sum assured under the policy, and covers 13 critical illnesses classified into three groups. On diagnosis of an illness, the policyholder can claim 100% sum assured and is still covered for illnesses under the remaining two groups. Furthermore, on diagnosis, future premiums payable by the policyholder are waived off.

 

 

Bharti AXA Life Hospi Cash Benefit Rider

BHARTI AXA LIFE ANNOUNCES THE LAUNCH OF A NEW TV CAMPAIGN

 

  • Introduces a 1st of its kind Service Differentiator-“Dedicated Claims Handler”
  • Path breaking treatment for the TV ad film using a 70’s Bollywood song in the context of claims settlement

 

Mumbai, February 21, 2013: Bharti AXA Life Insurance Company announced the launch of the first joint nationwide TV Campaign with its sister concern, Bharti AXA General Insurance on “The Dedicated Claims Handler”, an initiative that redefines service standards in the Insurance category.

 

Announcing the launch, Sandeep Ghosh, CEO and MD, Bharti AXA Life said, “In line with our overall objective of redefining the category, we are signaling our commitment to customers through this campaign. We recognize that the customers today are looking for relevant solutions that address their expectations. Claim Settlement is one such moment of truth- when the family of the policy holder is in distress due to an unfortunate incident in their lives. At this time what they expect from the insurance company is promptness and care. We have made significant changes in our service delivery framework to bring this solution to our customers.”

 

The TV ad itself is path breaking as it has been amongst the 1st to juxtapose a 70’s Bollywood song to fit an insurance situation, bringing in satirical humour. The TVC showcases the hapless customer running from pillar to post to complete Insurance paperwork. But the Hindi Song “Aap Yahan Aaye” in this context makes the whole film entertaining whilst still conveying the angst of running after a claim. The Bharti AXA Life Solution comes in the form of the Dedicated Claims Handler who proactively contacts the customer and handles his claims process end to end.

 

Sandeep further added, “A personalized service like the Dedicated Claims Handler, showcases our commitment and concern for our customers. We believe that every customer should have a hassle free experience while making an insurance claim and this is the essence we have tried to capture through our new TVC as well.”

 

The TVC has been directed by Rajesh Krishnan of Soda Films, and conceptualized by Publicis.

 

The campaign went on air on 8th Feb and will run nationally across all major channels in prime time slots for a period of 5 weeks
