ULIPs
ULIPs or Unit Linked Insurance Plans are multi-faceted insurance plans that offer insurance coverage and an option to investment in the same plan.
Part of the premium paid by the policy holder is utilized to provide a life cover and the remaining premium is invested in equity and/or debt instruments to help the money grow. Choose the right funds to make the most of your money.
Why ULIPs ?
