The Indian economy is poised for a 9% annual GDP growth, with a savings growth rate upwards of 32%. We see a large opportunity in the Life Insurance sector, which is a great way of channelizing savings into long-term investments.

Edelweiss, in partnership with Tokio Marine Group, aims at bringing differentiated Life Insurance products to the Indian market based on a strong understanding of the Indian investor. After receiving all necessary regulatory approvals, we have started rolling out operations by setting up branches in Mahrashtra, Gujarat, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh and Delhi. Over the next couple of years we plan to have a pan-India presence with a network of highly trained Personal Financial Advisors (PFAs). Edelweiss Tokio Life PFAs would undergo a rigorous training program specially designed to blend Indian context with international knowledge. This is expected to lead to higher customer satisfaction.

With a paid up capital of INR 550 Crores, Edelweiss Tokio Life has the highest capital base at the time of launch of any private sector Life Insurance company in the country.
