Savings plans are a great idea to secure the future of your family. Throughout the years in which you earn, preferably at the peak of your career, you try putting aside a certain amount of money and pay premiums for a savings plan so that you and your family can enjoy the benefits after the maturity period is reached.

With the rising rates of inflation and increasing costs of healthcare, education and lifestyle, this plan ensures your family receives a fixed amount of allowance after your death. Therefore, a guaranteed savings plan is essential for the breadwinner of any family so that they will be well-off in your absence.

But with the diversification of the demographic that goes for savings plans these days, insurance companies and banks have rolled a variety of options. It may be difficult for an average Indian to discern the differences between all of these savings plans and determine the best for you.

Canara HSBC Life Insurance offers various guaranteed savings plans from which you can pick and choose the best according to your economic circumstances. The ideal savings plan should help you grow your investment through regular investments through disciplined premiums paid throughout a specific period. You will be eligible for certain benefits and allowances until the policy’s termination.

Let us take a look at the variety of guaranteed savings plans offered by Canara HSBC :

4. Smart Lifelong Plan

This unit-linked insurance plan was created with the idea that wealth creation should go hand in hand with whole life coverage.

It also provides a maturity benefit, added with annual bonuses and a final bonus if the policyholder survives till maturity. Added benefits include a premium benefit to which you are entitled to if your sum assured is seven lakhs or more, as well as a loan facility that can help you with your liquidity needs, provided the policy has acquired a surrender value.

6. Future Smart Plan

This unit-linked plan is for parents who want to secure a bright future for your child. With the increasing costs of education and possibilities of education in international universities, you may want to save up quite a large amount for your child’s future. This plan offers a comprehensive insurance cover that includes a sum assured on death and a premium funding in disability or untimely death.

7. Grow Smart Plan

This plan is perfect for those who earn sporadically and want to secure an income for your child’s future – especially if you do not have a stable income in which case you can pay for disciplined premiums.
