Choice of four portfolio strategies
This strategy enables you to choose an asset allocation that is best suited to your risk appetite and maintains it throughout the
policy term.
You can allocate your premiums between any two funds available with this policy, in the proportion of your choice. Your portfolio will
be rebalanced every quarter to ensure that this asset allocation is maintained.
The re-balancing of units shall be done on the last day of each Policy quarter. You can avail this option at inception or at any time later
during the Policy Term.
For an investor, maintaining a pre-defined asset allocation is a dynamic process and is a function of constantly changing markets. The
Trigger Portfolio Strategy 2 enables you to take advantage of substantial equity market swings and invest on the principle of “buy low,
sell high”.
Under this strategy, your investments will initially be distributed between two funds Multi Cap Growth Fund, an equity oriented fund,
and Income Fund, a debt oriented fund in a 75%: 25% proportion. The fund allocation may subsequently get altered due to market
movements. We will re-balance funds in the portfolio based on a pre-defined trigger event.
Working of the strategy:
• The trigger event is defined as a 10% upward or downward movement in NAV of Multi Cap Growth Fund, since the previous
rebalancing. For determining the first trigger event, the movement of 10% in NAV of Multi Cap Growth Fund will be measured
vis-à-vis the NAV at the inception of your strategy.
• On the occurrence of the trigger event, any fund value in Multi Cap Growth Fund which is in excess of three times the Income
Fund, fund value is considered as gains and is transferred to the liquid fund - Money Market Fund by cancellation of appropriate
units from the Multi Cap Growth Fund. This ensures that gains are capitalized, while maintaining the asset allocation between
Multi Cap Growth Fund and Income Fund at 75%:25%
• In case there are no gains to be capitalized, funds in Multi Cap Growth Fund, Income Fund and Money Market Fund are
redistributed in Multi Cap Growth Fund and Income Fund in 75:25 proportion.
3 Fixed Portfolio Strategy
This strategy enables you to manage your investments actively. Under this strategy, you can choose to invest your monies in any of
the following fund options in proportions of your choice. You can switch monies amongst these funds using the switch option.
The details of the funds are given in the table below:
Potential Risk-
Fund Name and Its Objective Asset Allocation % (Min) % (Max) Reward Profile
Equity and Equity
Focus 50 Fund: To provide long-term capital 90% 100%

predominantly in top 50 stocks.
SFIN: ULIF 142 04/02/19 FocusFifty 105 Money Market and Cash 0% 10%
Within the Fixed Portfolio Strategy you also have the option to select Automatic Transfer Strategy (ATS). If this is chosen you can
invest all or some part of your investment in Money Market Fund or Income Fund and transfer a fixed amount in regular monthly
instalments into any one of the following funds: Bluechip Fund, Maximiser V, Multi Cap Growth Fund, Maximise India Fund, Value
Enhancer Fund, Opportunities Fund, Focus 50 Fund or India Growth Fund. There would be no additional charges for ATS. The following
conditions apply to ATS.
• The minimum transfer amount under ATS is ` 2,000.
• This transfer will be done in equal instalments in not more than 12 monthly instalments.
• ATS would be executed by redeeming the required number of units from fund chosen at the applicable unit value and allocating
new units in the destination fund at the applicable unit value.
• At inception, you can opt for a transfer date of either the first or fifteenth of every month. If the date is not mentioned the funds
will be switched on the first day of every month. If the first or the fifteenth of the month is a non-valuation date, then the next
working day’s NAV would be applicable.
Once selected, ATS will be renewed and would be regularly processed for the entire term of the policy or until the Company is notified,
through a written communication, to discontinue the same.
4 Lifecycle based Portfolio Strategy 2
Your financial needs are not static and keep changing with your life stage. It is, therefore, necessary that your policy adapts to your
changing needs. This need is fulfilled by the LifeCycle based Portfolio Strategy 2.
At Policy inception, your investments are distributed between two funds, Multi Cap Growth Fund and Income Fund, based on your
age. As you move from one age band to another, your funds are re-distributed based on your age. The age wise portfolio
distribution is shown in the table.
Asset allocation details at Policy inception and during the Policy term
Age of Life Assured (years) Multi Cap Growth Fund Income Fund
Up to 25 80% 20%
26 – 35 75% 25%
36 – 45 65% 35%
46 – 55 55% 45%
56 – 65 45% 55%
66 + 35% 65%
• Quarterly rebalancing
On a quarterly basis, units shall be rebalanced as necessary to achieve the above proportions of the Fund Value in the Multi Cap
Growth Fund and Income Fund. The re-balancing of units shall be done on the last day of each Policy quarter. The above
proportions shall apply until the last ten quarters of the Policy are remaining.
As your Policy nears its maturity date, you need to ensure that short-term market volatility does not affect your accumulated
savings. In order to achieve this, your investments in Multi Cap Growth Fund will be systematically transferred to Income Fund in
ten instalments in the last ten quarters of your Policy.
The Policyholder can only have his funds in one of the Portfolio Strategies.
Illustration
The above illustrations are for a healthy male life with 100% of his investments in Maximiser V. The above are illustrative maturity
values, net of all charges, Goods & Services Tax and cesses, if any. Since your policy offers variable returns, the given illustration
shows different rates of assumed future investment returns. The returns shown in the benefit illustration are not guaranteed and they
are not the upper or lower limits of what you might get back, as the value of your policy depends on a number of factors including
future investment performance.
Secure your family under
Married Woman’s Property Act (MWPA)
Through this feature, you have an option to secure the corpus for the benefit of your wife and children as the funds under the policy cannot

to be for the benefit of his wife and children. When such intent is expressed on the face of the policy, it shall be deemed to be a trust for
the benefit of the named beneficiaries and it shall not be subject to the control of the husband, or his creditors, or form part of his estate.

the premium amount at the time of premium payment and units are allocated in the chosen funds thereafter. This charge is expressed

added back to the Fund Value at the end of 10th policy year. The same amount will be added again to the Fund Value at the end of
