Message: (Kindly note, my question does not deal specifically with insurance per se but with nomination, specifically for PPF. The four areas of Expert Advice indicated do not provide for nomination area, hence I have chosen this as a default area, for insurance also needs nomination. In case the area is wrong, would the Expert or the Editor kindly redirect it to the appropriate area?) Govt-sponsored small-saving schemes, such as PPF, POSB, PORD, NSC, etc have provisions to nominate a person who would receive the proceeds in the event of an eventuality. There is some confusion in this respect. Sometime the investor would think it prudent to provide for more than one nominee. For instance, a very old senior citizen having a PPF account (PPF a/c can be opened only by a single individual, not jointly) may like that her/his spouse should receive the amount in case of an eventuality. However, the spouse too is expected to be a very old person in this case. To cover such a situation, the investor may like to nominate two persons – one, the spouse (A), and two, say, an offspring (B) – intending them to be sequential and not joint nominee. That is, A would be the nominee if then alive, but B if otherwise. Unfortunately the State Banks/Post Office, where the account is opened, do not honour such wish, saying that multiple nomination is interpreted only as joint nomination, i.e., the proceeds would be compulsorily divided among the nominees (as per suggested proportion if so indicated, equally if otherwise). Please let me know if the latter interpretation is correct. If so, is there any way to overcome the problem and make the nomination sequential among the nominees? Please also let me know who is the administrative authority of PPF scheme. K.R. Bhattacharya 61, “Supriti” 5th Main Road Jayalakshmipuram Mysore – 570 012

Message: i have endowment policy of Max New york Life Insurance for 8 lakh and LIC moneyback for 8 lakh. i have paid premiums for 1.5 yrs. My insurance advisor says that i will get only 30% surrender value if i pay premiums for 3 yrs and even if i wait till maturation of policy. This is contrary to your article which states that you get complete amount with bonuses at the end of maturation. So what should i do now.. Both policies are for 8 lakh Rs and i have paid premiums for 1.5 yrs in them..
