ICICI Prudential Life Insurance has introduced a retirement solution by combining two variants of its ‘Guaranteed Pension Plan’, which offers a guaranteed return on investments.

This solution provides customers with increasing regular income that doubles after five years and triples after the 11th year, thereby shielding subscribers against the rising cost of living.

The pandemic has made customers appreciate the importance of financial planning, and this is specially so for life after retirement. The customer-centric retirement or annuity products offered by the Company have enabled it to grow the annuity business segment by 120 per cent in FY2021.

Annuity products enable customers to plan for their retirement and are available in two variants i.e. Immediate and Deferred Annuity.

The Immediate Annuity option enables customers to start receiving regular income immediately by paying a one-time premium. On the other hand, the Deferred Annuity option gives customers the flexibility to start receiving income in the future; for instance closer to their retirement. Customers have the option to defer the start of the income for a maximum period of 10 years. Longer the deferment, higher would be the income.

ICICI Pru Guaranteed Pension Plan, is the Company’s flagship annuity product and offers features such as the early return of purchase price from the age of 76 years or on turning 80. It also includes others such as return of purchase on death or upon being diagnosed with specific critical illnesses or permanent disability due to an accident.
