American Life Insurance Company(ALICO) (A part of MetLife)

MetLife’s story began in 1921 in Shanghai, China. The company grew steadily in the early
decades, moving its headquarters to Wilmington, Delaware in the late 1960s. In 1972 we
became the first foreign life insurance company licensed to sell in Japan, the first step towards
becoming a household name. We were well-placed to establish new operations in Central and
Eastern Europe in the late 1980s when the political and economic environment in the region
changed dramatically. Expansion in Latin America, the Middle East and a liberalized European
Union followed, and that growth story continues today.

In March 2010, the latest chapter in our history unfolded when it was announced that our
company would combine with MetLife. That acquisition completed in November 2010, creating
one global company, meeting the needs of some 90 million customers in over 60 countries.

Global Footprint:

We are the world’s largest platform for the distribution of savings and insurance products. Over eight
decades the number of countries in which we have Alico operations has grown to 54 and we hold top
five positions in the majority of these markets.

We have a long history of responding to local and regional change by establishing successful
operations in new markets

Alico is now part of the MetLife family - The MetLife companies provide protection, savings and
retirement solutions to 90 million customers in over 60 countries.

Insurance for Individuals

Many individuals and their financial planners consider life insurance as the cornerstone of
their financial plan. While the main purpose of life insurance is to help take care of your
family in the event of your death, policies can also serve other purposes including:
 providing funds to pay final expenses
 creating an inheritance for your heirs

 making charitable contributions in the event of your death

 creating a source of tax-deferred savings1

Term and Permanent


Term life insurance provides coverage for a fixed period of time and typically may be
renewed after the initial contract term expires. Term insurance is typically the least
expensive and simplest type of coverage, but does not provide savings. The premiums are
lowest when you are young and increase upon renewal as you age. American General Life
Companies (American General) insurers sell Term Insurance for one, five, 10, 15, 20 or 30
years and AG Select-a-Term which gives you a choice of 10-, 12-, or 15- through 30-year
terms of life insurance coverage.

Permanent life insurance provides coverage for an indefinite period of time. Whole life
insurance premiums remain at a fixed level for the duration of the policy while universal life
offers flexible premiums. Over time, the policy generally builds up cash value on a tax-
deferred basis. American General insurance companies sell four different types of
permanent insurance:

 Universal Life
 Index Universal Life

 Variable Universal Life

 Whole Life

Based on current federal income tax laws.

The underwriting risks, financial obligations and support functions associated with the
products issued by American General Life Insurance Company (AGL) and The United States
Life Insurance Company in the City of New York (USL) are the issuing insurer's responsibility.
American General Life Companies, www.americangeneral.com, is the marketing name for
the insurance companies and affiliates comprising the domestic life operations of American
International Group, Inc., including American General Life and United States Life. United

OVER
Jiban Bima Corporation
The Jiban Bima Corporation (JBC) is the lone state-owned life Insurance company in
Bangladesh, which started its maiden journey on May 14,1973 with assets and liabilities worth
TK. 15.70 crore (157 million) of defunt 37 life Insurance companies. Since its inception, JBC is
working among the people of Bangladesh with two basic objectives: firstly, to cover the risks
and raise savings habits among the people and secondly, create funds for the country’s
economic development through innovative life insurance schemes.

Meanwhile, the life fund of Jiban Bima Corporation has shot up to Tk.9.89 billion (year 2008 ),
the highest in industry which was only Tk. 213 million in 1973. JBC has paid Tk.15 billion against
various claims, the highest such payments in the country’s life Insurance business. The JBC’s
investment has reached Tk.9.1 billion from only Tk 197 million in 1973. The JBC has the largest
network all over the country with 6 regional, 10 zonal, 64 sales and 400 branch offices.

Vision 2020
Having the largest network all over the country, and having a high operational cost, the JBC is
facing a stiff competition in the insurance market from the private sector companies. Options
for fresh investment in the money and capital market is facing a set back mainly due to interest
rate cut in recent days. Many private sector insurance companies are also offering newer and
competitive products in the market.

To face this competition, the JBC has drawn a six-year business plan (from 2004 to 2010) with a
view to completely revamping the business strategy of the corporation as well as to expand the
corporation's clientele base in both the domestic and overseas market. In line with this business
plan, the JBC would soon launch Jiban Bima Bank Ltd., Jiban Bima Housing Finance and
Investment Limited as well as Jiban Bima Foundation with equity share from the public, private
sector participation and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). The corporation will also explore
newer avenues for investment in the insurance products of JBC by the approximately 6.5 million
Bangladeshis living abroad. To this end, the Corporation is going to offer a number of newer
products and services that will be more attractive to this potential clientele group
