There is an emerging sensitivity to the need to offer insurance services to Rural and Socially Marginalised Populations in addition to the services of credit and savings for their socio-economic emancipation. The vulnerability of poor due to low and irregular incomes is exacerbated by unexpected crises such as illness, disability, death, or physical catastrophes such as flood, fire etc. leading to loss of assets and livelihood. These unexpected events can wipe out their savings or lead them into greater indebtedness, thus worsening their already weak position.
To address such needs HDFC ERGO General Insurance Co. Ltd. has a number of products customized to provide various covers.
