I agree.  Loyalty bonus should be ushered in very fast into Life Insurance.  This will make the policyholders more loyal to the company and vice versa.  The servicing of policy holders will also get a make-over. In general it will improve the...

Many companies start from humble beginnings and grow organically without any solid plans for brand development . As these companies reach a certain point in their growth, they often come to realize that, in order to break through to the next level, they must proactively define their brand. Without taking this important step, these companies risk stagnating and failing to break through to higher brand awareness . The development of a solid brand begins with a discovery phase, in which the company reviews its strategic materials, conducts consumer research, and conducts manager interviews to collect information about what the company stands for and where it is headed. After the discovery phas...

Returns doesn't depend on which plan u select but which fund in that particular plan. Go for a fund (equity/growth)which has maximum exposure to equities if u want higher returns,but keep in mind the risk associated also.

ove is the most wonderful feeling I have ever experienced. When you are in love you cannot hate anyone, it’s like you are in love with everyone. Hate is definitely is a strong emotion that could destroy not only a human soul but whole civilizations. I think Tibet ancient people knew about this secret of the world and tried to keep their culture in a shape of wisdom that came from unknown sources, probably someone who is pure Love. Leading traditions of almost every religion teach you to love the closed ones, even your enemies. However, not everyone understands what does it mean and have more hate in their hearts than Love to those who are around them. If you will learn how to love yourself,...
