HOW many times have you thought about your insurance policies and worried about the safety of the documents? There are a lot of times when keeping this investment safe and secure becomes a problem for individuals. While all the other routes of investment now have the demat facility, this has not yet been witnessed in the insurance space.

But, this need not be the case for a long because the good news is that a demat account for your insurance policies could soon become a reality.

Efforts undertaken: There are reports that the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (Irda) is working on putting a system in place that will enable holding of insurance policies in demat or electronic form. The way in which the system proposes to work is that it will be introduced initially for life insurance policies.

These policies are usually similar in nature, even though different insurance companies offer them, and, hence, the facility would make the life insurance segment simpler. The facility for general insurance policies will be introduced at a later date, and, so, if the system works well, then it can be extended to the other areas of insurance also.

Ease of effort: There will be an ease of effort for getting an insurance policy once this system is put in place. At present, there is some work involved at the time of purchase of every insurance policy.

A prospective customer has to provide proof of identity and proof of address and these details will be verified. With an electronic account, all these details will be available with the account, and, hence, there would not be a requirement to submit these information every time a policy is bought. The advantage of this is that the process can be completed smoothly, without requiring a lot of documents, as is the situation now.

On the other hand, there will also be a quicker and easier way to get a new policy because a lot of the work will already be completed, so, the selection and the payment of premium would be the only things left to do.

No preservation worries: Another major concern for a lot of people is the preservation of the insurance policy and the submission of this at the time of filing a claim. Storing the policy in a safe place is a major task due to the fact that these policies are often for 20-25 years and keeping the physical documents for this time period often leads to some problems, especially, if there is flooding or some natural calamity in the interim period.

Often, these documents are misplaced and this leads to another round of work on getting another duplicate set. All this would no longer be necessary because the electronic version does not pose these challenges.


Similar structure helps: Life insurance policies in India are not yet tailormade for specific individuals in the sense that these have features that are largely common, therefore, the policyholders will then be subject to the terms and conditions of the policy. Since these policies are so similar, it is also possible for these to be in the electronic form and be used in a proper manner.

On the other hand, it also lays the ground for further action in terms of additional ways by which the complexity of the policies can be raised and this will be easily assimilated into the entire system that has been set.

All this would work out very efficiently going forward, so, policyholders will benefit from the many variations in the policies without major disruptions to the system.

How to gauge the risk profile of your mutual fund portfolio?

MUTUAL funds are considered to be an investment option for those who do not generally devote a lot of time to monitoring and managing their portfolios. Investors experience both good as well as tough times as far as mutual fund investments are concerned. But while evaluating the portfolio of their equity mutual fund holdings there are a few points that one should check to know about the level of risk that they are facing. Often there are situations where there is a higher risk than what was estimated initially. Here are a few ways to evaluate various risk levels. Individual holding exposure : The portfolio of the equity fund where one has invested or plans to invest needs to be scrutinised to see whether the risk levels are such that could lead to a larger volatility in the holdings. Depending upon this factor and the risk taking ability of the investor the choice about a particular fund as an investment should be made.

Stick to Good Fund Manager who Can Multiply Your Investment

A manager may be the difference between the best and worst funds. Here's how you can find the right one    Does a mutual fund manager make a difference to your investment? The answer may not be as easy as you think, since most best-performing mutual funds have moved away from individualistic fund management to process-driven methods, limiting the scope of an individual's role in investment decisions. In fact, many fund managers would speak at length about how the "system" their fund house has in place makes their task of picking stocks easy even though it restricts their freedom. Still, the question is important, especially after recent reports that the Securities and Exchange Board of India ( Sebi ) may ask fund managers to disclose to investors their track record of managing money. Let us take a look at the universe of large-cap funds over the past five years. According to Value Research, an independent mutual fund tracking firm, the topper in the category is DSP...
