A customisable savings plan with 3 bonus modes and optional spouse cover, for goals like education, milestones, or retirement.

Spouse Cover in Single Policy 3 Bonus Payout Modes Life Cover up to Age 85 Enhanced Sum Assured for Women

A Wealth Accumulation Engine Built Around Your Life Goals

Kotak Fortune Maximiser combines long-term life cover with the flexibility to choose exactly how your bonus earnings are paid or reinvested.

Most traditional endowment plans lock you into a rigid structure where your payouts and timings are predetermined from day one. Kotak Fortune Maximiser takes a fundamentally different approach. As a limited-pay, participating endowment assurance plan, it participates in Kotak Life's with-profits fund, granting you three versatile bonus payout mechanisms: immediate cash, deferred cash accumulation, or compounding paid-up additions. This gives you absolute control over whether you receive cash flow today or compound your wealth for tomorrow.

Whether your goal is securing funds for your child's overseas education, creating a dedicated retirement transition engine, or building an intergenerational wealth reserve, the plan offers three dedicated variants: Life Goal Maximiser, Bright Future Maximiser, and Golden Years Maximiser. Each option is engineered for specific life chapters, offering tailored liquidity when you need it most.

In addition, Kotak Fortune Maximiser addresses family financial security holistically. It allows primary policyholders to add their spouse under the very same policy contract, avoiding duplicate policy administration costs. With coverage extending up to age 85, premium payment terms as short as 6 years, and enhanced benefits for female lives, this plan serves as a robust pillar for your family's financial roadmap.
