PNB MetLife Century Plan - lifelong income and protection for generations
PNB MetLife Insurance today launched the PNB MetLife Century Plan, a comprehensive life insurance solution designed to meet customers’ evolving life-stage needs including children’s education, long term savings and retirement.
Rising inflation and steep increases in the cost of education (around 10-12% annually) suggest that Indians need to be more prepared to meet their long-term financial goals – particularly during these uncertain times. Moreover, as life expectancy continues to climb (17 years between 1990-2019), so has the need for adequate retirement planning. PNB MetLife Century Plan is a customer-centric solution that offers income starting immediately and up-to age 100 years along with lumpsum paid on maturity. The versatility of the plan caters to multiple needs of preparing for Children’s future, Retirement, Legacy planning and any other long-term saving objective, all rolled into one plan.
Key Features
The non-linked and participating life insurance plan offers customers the flexibility to opt from three income options depending on one’s life-stage need -1) Super Income option: the cash bonuses (if declared) will be paid from the first year onwards and a lumpsum benefit will be paid at maturity.
