Lending major Axis Bank, along with its subsidiaries, have become the co-promoters of Max Life Insurance Company.
The
bank and its subsidiaries Axis Capital and Axis Securities have
completed the acquisition of 12.99 per cent stake collectively.
"The
transaction was completed after the Insurance Regulatory and
Development Authority of India (IRDAI) gave its formal approval in
February this year," the bank said in a statement.
"Max Life's
holding company Max Financial Services and Axis Bank had first announced
their intent to bring in the latter as a strategic partner in Max Life
in February 2020."
According to the statement, the Axis entities
have a right to acquire an additional stake of up to 7 per cent in Max
Life, in one or more tranches, subject to regulatory approvals.
"With
the conclusion of this transaction, Max Life's Board will be
strengthened further, with co-option of three nominee directors of Axis
Entities on its Board."
As per the statement, the bank has shared
a successful business relationship with Max Life for over a decade,
providing long-term saving and protection products to nearly 20 lakh
customers.
"The total premium generated through this alliance has
aggregated to over Rs 40,000 crore. Both companies have invested
extensively in product and need-based sales training, thereby leading to
a consistent increase in productivity."
"Max Life has been
consistently outperforming the private industry. Its asset under
management (AUM) grew by 23 per cent YoY and reached Rs 84,724 crore as
on 31st December 2020, which has more than doubled in less than 4
years."
