HDFC Bank SureCover FD: Safeguard your family with a financial corpus

Fixed Deposits (FDs) offer the right blend of returns and security that makes them ideal for investors of all age groups. That’s not all; there are a number of value-added FDs that offer multiple benefits, one such as the HDFC Bank SureCover FD. 

HDFC Bank SureCover FD - More than just an investment, for those who mean a lot to you.

The distinguishing feature of SureCover is that it offers term life insurance cover for the first year equivalent to the principal amount you invest. SureCover FD offers Resident individuals, who are 18- <50 years of age, the dual benefit of investment growth via FD and security through a life insurance of one year for the Primary FD holder.

This feature is helpful when unexpected expenses suddenly crop up, and you are faced with a shortage of funds. Also, interest payouts are available on a monthly or quarterly basis.
