Education Policy

First Insurance Company’s Education Policy is a Term Insurance Product specially designed to give assurance of tertiary education for your child or ward. Thus upon the demise of a parent, there is security for the child or ward as their tertiary education is guaranteed.

This policy allows the policy holder (parent) to invest regular amounts of money separately into the child’s Mutual Fund Account held with an investment company for the child’s tertiary education. Upon the demise of a parent, the sum assured is paid into the Mutual Fund Account set up for the child or ward to enable the invested fund to optimize returns to fulfill the parents dreams.

This policy provides parents the opportunity to deliver on their promise to their child or ward even in the event that death does not occur.

Buy Term & Invest In Mutual Funds

The “Buy Term & Invest in Mutual Funds” Policy is a Term Insurance Product that ensures the replacement of the breadwinner’s income in the event of premature death within the policy period.

This is a family centered product designed to offer adequate protection and peace of mind at an affordable price. This product also provides families with a unique opportunity to have a separate investment with an investment company aimed at a comfortable retirement.

This underpins our philosophy that during the early years of one’s life, there is the need for adequate insurance protection, because when death occurs, any investment the deceased may have could be inadequate to provide financial support to the dependents. It is therefore very essential for one to have life insurance with large sum assured at an affordable price to adequately protect the family when the untimely death occurs.
