Being one of the most significant offerings of 2023, FGII seeks to capitalise upon its online distribution channels and distributors to create awareness and adoption of the product. The company expects to unveil a multi-platform advertising and marketing campaign on the product soon.

FGII continues to ride on the success of its innovative and niche products, deeply rooted in consumer behaviour. The new product also reaffirms the insights that surfaced in a recent FGII survey conducted by Unomer, that most health insurance customers and intenders in India consider customisation as a critical feature and don’t mind paying an additional premium for the same. The product is in line with its continued focus on bringing innovative customer propositions to the forefront – including FG Dog Health cover, FG Health Absolute as well as opening up the ‘family’ definition of its health offerings to include members of the LGBTQIA+ community, in an industry – first initiative.
