Systematic Money Allocation & Regular Transfer Investment (SMART)

Systematic Money Allocation & Regular
Transfer (SMART) is a systematic transfer plan that allows a customer to
enter the volatile equity market in a structured manner under the Regular
Premium Account.
Through SMART, one can initially park the annual
allocable premium along with any existing units in any one fund (chosen out of
the funds of Tata AIG Life InvestAssure Superstar). This fund is
called the “Accumulation Fund”. Thereafter a defined portion out of the
Accumulation Fund will get transferred to another fund (chosen out of the funds
of Tata AIG Life InvestAssure Superstar, other than the Accumulation
Fund) on a monthly basis. This fund is called the “Target Fund”.
Thus, while the stock market remains volatile and
unpredictable, SMART Investment offers a systematic way of rupee cost
averaging. However, all investments through this option are still subject to
investment risks, which shall continue to be borne by you.
The following are the notable features of SMART:
·
SMART can be availed at the
option of the policy holder, exercisable at policy Inception or on any policy
anniversary. Request to start SMART should be received 30 days in advance of
the policy anniversary. The request if acceptable by us shall take effect on

however allowed on other available funds. For Top up premiums, manual switching
option will be available at applicable charges. Conditions regarding switch
