ABSLI is one of the leading players in the Private Life Insurance Industry in India today. Pioneers of the unique Unit Linked Life Insurance Solutions in India, they have been focused on investment Linked Insurance Products, supported with protection products to maintain leadership in product innovation.

HDFC Bank is operating from more than 5000 branches whereas BSLI is present only in 450 locations. This role calls for using methods and practise to support influence & engage by overcoming this geographical gap distance and spread of the partner branches and provide seamless service.
Distance also adds pressure to cost and therefore any error by sales on account of lack of knowledge, ignorance or sheer casual mistake may result into rework resulting in major impact on the turnaround time (TAT’s), cost and customer experience.
The service level agreements with the bank calls for zero tolerance for errors / slippages or failures on the stringent service level agreements laid down by the partner.
Dynamic environment in terms of regulation, technology, products, and operational processes adds on to the pressure of effective change management, training, education and awareness of teams which are not under the direct control and are spread far and wide.
Managing constantly evolving Bank expectations
Ability to influence, engage & be responsive given the distance from stakeholders.
Open architecture in Bancassurance space & limited variation in product has resulted in increased competition with operational efficiency, convenience and experience becoming the key drivers for differentiating and comparing performance. Challenge is to beat the expectation of partner, exceed delivery by competition and that too consistently without having any direct control but only through effective engagement and influencing
