Foreword

A successful and professionally run Life Insurance company functions on the principle

of equity. Every life coming to its common pool of risk is priced commensurate to the

level of risk it brings to the common pool. For this reason risk management is

fundamental to insurance business and underwriting is a tool of selection of lives and

pricing of risk.

This manual consists of underwriting guidelines. It attempts to cover the various

aspects related to Underwriting.

Most of the time proposals go through repeated cycles of processing because of

insufficient documentation. Uniformity in understanding and following all relevant

underwriting guidelines by sales forces would minimize such wastage. With this aim,

an attempt has been made to use simpler terms in the manual and the underwriting

guidelines are laid down in a simple, easy to understand language. This is expected to

facilitate the sales force in carrying out the task of primary underwriting in a smooth

and effective manner.

The ultimate goal is a Win-Win situation for both the sales force & Underwriting.

Happy Learning!

ACCEPTANCE OF FIQ (FINANCIAL INFORMATION QUESTIONNAIRE)

We are happy to introduce Financial Information Questionnaire (FIQ) to strengthen our financial underwriting.

As per revised process, for applications up to 3 lacs Annual Premium at client level, FIQ with bank statement

would be acceptable to assess the premium paying capacity and establish the source of premium.

Salient features of these guidelines are given below.

This will be applicable to Banca Channel only.

FIQ will give information about different sources of income and assets and liabilities of the customer.

It has to be signed by LH/AH and certified by the Bank Branch Manager from which policy is sourced.

Details of the person who is paying the premium has to be given.

Applicability:

Where total annual premium with SUD life will be between 1 lac to 3 lacs in plans other than single pay plans. In case of single pay product like, Immediate Annuity/Wealth Builder Plan and GPP, FIQ with bank statement

will be acceptable for total annual premium up to 5 lacs.

To help understand guidelines relating to FIQ , we have also attached FAQ which will give complete details

such as applicability, how to fill the form etc. along with few case studies in relation with practical scenarios.

I am sure this document will help you all to get relevant information required for complying with AML

regulations and in turn will help SUD Life to comply these regulations in letter and spirit.

It is advisable to submit FIQ with all cases wherein total annual premium is greater than 1 lacs at client level,

this will help reduce the non-medical requirements at NB stage.

Following is the matrix to be followed for AML assessment , please note the income proof required to justify

the insurance cover stays unchanged.

Special Scheme Guidelines EMPLOYER EMPLOYEE GUIDELINES* NEW

WHAT IS EMPLOYER - EMPLOYEE SCHEME?

Employers have an insurable interest in the lives of their employees. It is in the interest of the Employers to

have services of the employees continued over long period. Similarly, Employers want to remunerate

employees in various ways, one of such ways is to buy insurance on the life of employee. While the premium

in such cases will be paid by Employer, benefit under the policy will flow to Employee or his nominee. In view

of this SUD Life allows life insurance cover to be taken on the lives of employees by their employees.

It is important to establish Employer-Employee relationship for applying policy under this scheme. Basic

parameter for establishing this relationship is that employee earns a regular salary from the person who is

called his employer. Life insurance can be taken for all employees or for a class of employees. The employer

may or may not be the Proposer under the policy. PURPOSE:

Main reasons for the employer to have his employees’ lives covered are: 1) As a reward for good service to a select band of employees. 2) As an encouragement for continuation in the service. 3) As a welfare measure and provision for his old age/ dependents. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EMPLOYER - EMPLOYEE & KEYMAN INSURANCE: The basic difference between the Employer Employee Scheme & the Keyman Insurance is that the former is for the welfare of the Employee & his dependents whereas the latter is for safeguarding the Company from the probable financial loss which may arise due to the death of the key person. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR EMPLOYER - EMPLOYEE SCHEME

- Life to be Assured has to be employee of the Employer entity. - Employer may or may not be a registered entity. - Employee should not hold more than 49% stake in the Employer entity. - Family shareholding of the Employee in the Employer entity should not exceed 75%.

Family means Employee, spouse and children * NEW COMMON EMPLOYER –EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIPS The most common employer employee relationships are:

A sole proprietorship firm as the employer where the employee (other than the sole proprietor) is any employee of the sole proprietorship firm.
