balanced product mix, which has aided a 24%-growth in the Value of New Business
(VNB) at Rs 546 crore compared with Rs 438 crore in H1FY21. The higher growth
in VNB was due to higher sales and change in business mix. The New Business

24.2% in the year-ago period
In addition, Max Life also achieved its

Further, Max Life was Appointed as “Sponsor”
of Pension Fund for managing assets under the country’s National Pension Scheme
(NPS). The formation of the Pension Fund subsidiary is underway as Max Life has
sought IRDAI’s permission to set up a new company “PFM” in line with the
regulatory requirements.
Mohit Talwar, Managing Director, Max
Financial Services, said, “Our robust performance in H1FY22 was driven by our
constant endeavors towards customer measures despite the immense pressure on
the overall sector due to the COVID-19 provisioning. Moving forward, this will
continue to remain an important priority. Approval to act as Pension Fund
sponsor will help us serve our customers even more comprehensively and this is
in line with our focus on the retirement segment.”
He added: “Max Life crossing the Rs
1-trillion mark in the Assets Under Management category showcases the faith
reposed in us by different stakeholders. Max Life will continue on this growth
trajectory.”
