    Yes your short term investment will be short of 16K but you'll be getting that amount in 10-15 years along with lots of benefits.

    Sample calculation:
    This is for 15 years Life assurance, Age 26; Male person. :cool:

    Life assured for: LKR 10,000,000 (ten million)

    Yearly - LKR 191,209
    Half Yearly - LKR 97,030
    Quarterly - LKR 48,516
    Monthly - LKR 16,412

    What you'll be getting:
    At maturity(8% dividend based) - LKR 2,390,085 (two million three hundred ninety thousand eighty-five)

    Benefit (Rs)
    Additional Life Benefit 30,000,000 (thirty million)
    Accidental Death Benefit 10,000,000 (ten million)
    Total & Permanent Disability 10,000,000 (ten million)
    Partial Permanent Disability 10,000,000 (ten million)
    Critical Illness Benefit 3,000,000 (three million)
    Hospitalization Benefit per Day 10,000
    Family Income Benefit per Month 25,000

    So if you accidentally die within policy period your beneficiaries get following:

    Basic Sum Assured of Rs. 10,000,000 or Investment account value, which ever is higher, plus additional Life Benefit of Rs. 30,000,000 and Accidental Death Benefit of Rs.10,000,000

    = LKR 10,000,000 + LKR 30,000,000 + LKR 10,000,000
    = LKR 50,000,000 (fifty million)

    Tell your family to put that in a FD and monthly interest will be:

    60 months FD, Monthly interest at 13% = LKR six million five hundred thousand per month.

    Natural death within policy period your beneficiaries get following:

    Basic Sum Assured of Rs. 10,000,000 or Investment account value, which ever is higher, plus additional Life Benefit of Rs. 30,000,000

    = LKR 10,000,000 + LKR 30,000,000
    = LKR 40,000,000 (fourty million)

    Tell your family to put that in a FD and monthly interest will be:

    60 months FD, Monthly interest at 13% = LKR five million two hundred thousand per month.




    This is obviously a good idea machan, but my intention is to save and invest the savings continuously for two years as I need the money at the end of 2nd year or 3rd year. But need to go for a life insurance soon with a premium not more than 10K. Thanks for the ideas buddy.

    kalin eka poddak weraduna menna hariyatama

    uba maseta 10,000k FD danawa kiyala hithapan. FD rate eka 10% kiyala hithapan. 3 months FD danne mase antimata

    January -> 10000 new FD
    February -> 10000 new FD
    March - > 10000 new FD

    April weddi January dapu FD eka iwara wenawa eken hamba wenawa FD amount + interest, ekai uba save karana 10y danawa

    April - > 10000 + 10000 + 250 -> 20250

    Ohoma ayeth May weddi Feb eka iwara wenawa, ekath uda eka wage continue karanawa. ohoma uba FD 3k rotate karanawa mase gane ;)

    Exactly this is what I was thinking about. What if we do FD's for Six months and then let them renew for another six months with the interest. reduces the admin work also.

    6 months will give a higher int rate thank 3 months.

    So this works as a savings account? [can this account use for a financial proof when getting a visa????]

    Of course it should have.

    I think this is a better option for Visa compared to savings. :yes: :yes:

    This is clearly one of your personnel assets

    Thank you so much, never saw a life insurance as an investment.

    Basically this is a short team investment 2 - 3 Yeas.

    But as you said life insurance is a long term thing, so now I think of going for a life insurance, lets say with a premium of 5- 10 K and rest 40K will be invested on one of the two options mentioned above. Thanks for that.



    Thank you mate, this is also a good option, though i am more in to a short term investment.


    Please post or PM if you get any details of insurance schemes. Thank you.

    Appreciate the ideas of Finance professionals.

    Lets say if you can save 50K from your salary every month; and you want to invest that money through the saving period (Over a 3 years period)

    You have two options

    1) Go for an investment plan

    Eg:
    Millionaire account Commercial bank : Effective rate 8.6%
    NTB Investors account :Effective rate : 9.6%


    2) You can save the money for few months, lets say for four months you can save 200K (50 x 4 months) and then you can invest that money on a FD.

    In a finance institute - Higher rate 13% per year
    In a Bank - 11% per year

    Out of these two options what could have given the maximum benefit end of three years.

    Appreciate your ideas and suggestions


    Investment plans are good for people like me who does not have discipline to invest,however if you have good discipline you can use internet banking to open FDs with same amount and earn higher interest rate(FD interest rate).
