INVESTORS

Pl look at Insurance, for Insurance purposes. ULIPs are a farce. Insurance company have their hidden charges and you signature on policy document, and comfortably eat into your unit balance.

Only people making money out of ULIPs are the insurance company and the insurance agent. It is called INSURANCE for a reason

If you are planning to 'invest', MFs or ETFs are a better bet.

My experience with ULIPs

Me: "why is my unit balance going down?"

Insurance representative: "that we have taken for monthly admin charges"

Me: "what is allocation charge for then?"

Ins. Rep: "that is for investing in Fund"

Me: "Why was this not mentioned to me? will this happen on monthly basis?"

Ins. Rep: "Sir, we have your signature on the document, yes it will be done monthly"

Me: "this is ridiculous, almost 20% of annualized premium makes for your charges."

Ins. Rep:" Sir, this is to cover your cost of insurance cover also, this is not just investment, it is INSURANCE also"

Me: "If i dont die at maturity, will units be given back?, if i lose 20% per year on charges what will be my ROI at maturity"

Ins. Rep: "ha ha, no sir! Yours is long term sir, at the end aapko mil jayega sir return! Moreove, we are charging the lowest among all insurance companies"

Such a farce! I would like to swear now, but mods will kick me... so here goes "DAMN ULIPs!"
