  • Bandhan Life unveils new brand identity

    Bandhan Life, formerly known as Aegon Life Insurance, has announced its new identity along with a fresh tagline ‘Bharat Ki Udaan, Bandhan Se’.

    Said Akhil Almeida, Head of Marketing, Bandhan Life: “The launch of our new brand identity is a pivotal moment in how we communicate the value of life insurance. Moving away from traditional narratives that focus solely on life’s uncertainties, we choose to celebrate and elevate the aspirations of Bharat. We envision an India where every individual feels empowered to secure their future and pursue their aspirations. This vision is encapsulated in our new tagline, “Bharat Ki Udaan, Bandhan Se.”, which promises to lift the nation through strengthened relationships. The new logo features a budding flower, symbolizing potential, and new beginnings. The choice of colours was carefully considered – while the red is adopted from the Bandhan Group conveying commitment and a sense of protection. The blues convey stability, trust, and dependability and together these make an ideal combination for a new life insurance brand.”

Looking ahead, our vision for the next five years is set: transforming Bandhan Life into a leading multi-channel insurance company.

We believe that the strength of a bond can propel one to greater heights— As we fortify the bonds of trust with our customers, our collective ambitions soar. Bandhan Life will enable all stakeholders to soar higher, because we believe that every dream fortified by Bandhan is a flight towards a brighter tomorrow.”

  • Aegon Life partners Havas CX India for innovation

    By Our Staff

     

    Aegon Life Insurance has launched a campaign for its flagship term product, iTerm Prime. The campaign, dubbed ‘iTerm Toh Tension Khatam’ is a print ad that comes to life on mobile and sings for its audience.

     

    Conceptualised by Havas CX India, the tension-free campaign reinforces the brand’s commitment to making every household financially secure.

     

    Talking about the campaign, Akhil Almeida, Head of Marketing, at Aegon Life Insurance, said: “iTerm Prime makes life insurance accessible to Emerging India – the aspirational class who needs insurance but does not have the documents that are required by legacy insurance companies. It removes a lot of barriers that stand in the way of consumers getting adequate financial protection. iTerm Prime is easy to buy, affordable, requires zero documentation, and can be tailored to suit a consumer’s needs.

     

    With this latest innovation, we’re now resetting expectations for what traditional media can achieve. Not only is it building salience and trust, but it’s showcasing the product in a way that benefits the customer. A person viewing this ad doesn’t need to download an extensive brochure or get spammed by unwanted sales calls. They can make the decision right then and there – and secure their loved ones in a jiffy.”

     

    On the campaign launch, Prashant Tekwani, Managing Partner, Havas CX India, said, “Life Insurance in the mind of the consumer is very confusing, and the brands and the terms and conditions don’t help much. When we partnered with Aegon Life, we fell in love with the approach of being “Easy and Honest”, and this innovation and campaign is an attempt towards the brand’s philosophy. When we first heard about the product and the inspiration behind its design for “Emerging India”, we wanted to go beyond the idea of a simple print ad. Print is an important medium in the consumer journey for the product, and when it is blended with innovative technology, the result makes you sit up and take notice. We created the interactive print ad to talk about the product and give consumers an experience that brings it to life, keeping in mind the product and its benefits for the self-employed segment of India. We are proud to make this idea come to life with Aegon Life.”

    By A Correspondent

     

    Aegon Life Insurance has launched a new digital campaign ‘#iDecide’ for the Do-It-Yourself generation. The campaign sensitises and impels the audience to educate themselves before making key financial decisions.

    Identifying the want of the DIY generation to be empowered in decision making, Aegon Life collaborated with DDB Mudra Group to create an ad campaign that promotes self-reliance in taking key decisions that affect the protection of your loved ones.

The theme of the campaign – #iDecide – is to sensitize the audience that a decision as big as protecting your loved ones should not be left to others.

  • Aegon Life launches 360-degree marketing campaign

    By A Correspondent

     

    Aegon Life Insurance has partnered with DDB Mudra Group to launch a new integrated campaign that focuses on simplicity and ease of buying its products.

     

    Contrary to other life insurance ads, this multimedia campaign is completely bereft of the usual play of safety, security, emotions and a better future for the insured and their dependents. Instead, it focuses on the efficacy of jargon-free communication, simple processes and easy accessibility. Aegon Life will give best in class customer service experience to its customers at every interaction point.

     

    Shamik Banerjee

    Shamik Banerjee, Chief Marketing Officer at Aegon Life Insurance, says, “With this unconventional take on insurance, we are confident to change the communication paradigm. This campaign stands out from the usual speak of life insurance brands and will bring a renewed vitality to the insurance advertising space.”

     

    The campaign is being primarily led by a one minute long TVC film, supported by print, radio and digital activations. The ad film showcases multi-dimensional visual perspective using minimal elements for bringing out ‘Simplicity’ as the core of the Aegon Life’s ideology.

     

    Sonal Dabral, Chairman and CCO, DDB Mudra Group said, “It’s not just the current life insurance processes that are complex, the advertising too in this category is cluttered and fuzzy. For a brand that promises to simplify everything associated with buying life insurance, it was important that Aegon Life’s communication too was simple and yet had a sense of scale to it. I am truly happy that we have been able to achieve just that with this campaign. I am sure the audience will enjoy it and engage with it as much as we did while creating it.”
