Micro Insurance

Social security in the form of micro insurance can be a boon for the poor, when the income raising ability of the breadwinner is impaired. In India, the micro insurance schemes are mostly implemented by the MFIs as a compulsory element along with the micro credit provided. Micro insurance schemes can be considered as a stepping stone to social protection.

Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY) and Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY) are two open ended micro insurance schemes initially launched on 9th May, 2015 and implemented w.e.f. 01/06/2015.

PMJJBY is one of the flagship schemes under the ambitious social security scheme captioned "Jan Dhan Se Jan Suraksha" launched by Government of India on 1st of June, 2015. In absence of any formal social security system in India, Government had envisioned a larger set of population through the banking channel.

Under both schemes the risk period is fixed for 12 months i.e. 1st June to 31st May. In PMSBY, any good health certificate is not required. The PMJJBY scheme is also a strong enabler to canvass new savings Account which are fully funded in nature. It has been decided to aggressively canvas this scheme to our existing eligible SB account holders who are still not covered under the scheme till date along with other SB accounts which are being opened fresh.
