The association reinforces the Company's belief 'You Are the Difference' which reaffirms that as an individual, it is 'You' who brings a difference to the lives of your loved ones and must therefore secure their financial well-being by investing in a robust term life insurance plan. Remarking on the partnership, Aalok Bhan, Director and Chief Marketing Officer, Max Life, said, "It's true that consumer sentiments remained largely affected due to Covid -19, but with the nation binding event that cricket and especially Indian Premier League is, one can look forward to a positive spin. We are thrilled to partner with Royal Challengers Bangalore for the third consecutive year as their official life insurance partner. Through the means of this partnership, we aim to reach out to the team's diverse and dynamic audience base with the message that they are the difference in the lives of their loved ones. Also, in these financially challenging times brought by the pandemic, it remains crucial to consider life insurance for securing one's financial future, especially with term insurance plans, that offer income benefits, at the time that it is needed the most." As per Max Life's recent India Protection Quotient 3.0 survey conducted in partnership with Kantar, it was found that during COVID-19, only 57% urban Indian millennials feel financially secure under current circumstances. The survey also revealed that only 28% millennials owned term insurance in the backdrop of COVID-19. Given the uncertainties around us, it is important to consider a term insurance to ensure comprehensive financial protection for loved ones. Commenting on the partnership, Rajesh V Menon, Vice President & Head of Royal Challengers Bangalore, said, "We are pleased to associate with Max Life Insurance as our official life insurance partner for the third year in a row. Our partnership gives us the opportunity to create awareness about financial protection and its importance in life. While the protection of players on the field is taken care of in many ways, it is imperative to gear up well in life too, by calculating risks and leading with financial protection.

  • The Curious Case of IPL
    Volume V September 2012 Volume V September 2012 Business Strategy The Curious Case of IPL Mr. Ameya Yeravdekar Research Scholar, SIBM, Pune Email: [email protected] Introduction The Indian Premier League (IPL), as we all know is the crème de la crème of fast paced, riveting cricket action. Is IPL a boon or a bane? Is IPL actually, the Indian Premier League or an Indian Paisa League or an Indian Phaltu League? The debate will go on for decades, maybe without any clear conclusions coupled with mixed opinions and reviews. What has always fascinated me, with the IPL is the sense of curiosity attached to it, one never knows what to expect during those seven weeks of blink-and-you- miss-it cricket. However, since the third edition if IPL, the curiosity has shifted from the matches to the administration of the league itself! History The Indian Premier League, an initiative started by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2007, kicked off on April 18, 2008, with a glitzy opening ceremony in the IT capital of our country, Bangalore. It’s been more than five years since then, but very few of us would know that the IPL would not have started in the first place itself, had it not been for the efforts of Mr.LalitModi, the then pioneer in charge of this professional Twenty20 competition. Mr. Lalit Modi is the heir apparent to an Rs.40 billion enterprise, dealing in textiles in Rajasthan, northwest India. He was always fascinated with cricket and wanted to do something substantial and sustainable for the promotion and nurturing of talent in our country.
