How SISO Helps You Stay Invested and Stay Liquid

In an ideal world, your investments should help you grow your wealth and give you the flexibility to access your money when you need it.

Understanding SISO: The Basics

SISO stands for Systematic In and Systematic Out. It is a dual-phase strategy:


  • Systematic In (SI): In this phase, you invest regularly into your policy, usually in the form of premium payments.
  • Systematic Out (SO): Once your accumulation phase is over, you start receiving regular payouts while the remaining corpus continues to stay invested and grow.

This structure makes SISO a powerful mechanism for wealth accumulation and income generation while ensuring consistent access to funds.


Why Investors Struggle with Liquidity and Long-Term Investing

Many investors face a dilemma:


  • Should I lock my money for long-term growth?
  • What if I need funds during emergencies?
  • Will I have to break my investment and lose out on returns?

SISO helps address these concerns by allowing a dual benefit—stay invested for compounding growth and stay liquid for financial flexibility.


Key Features of SISO That Promote Investment and Liquidity

  1. Staggered Investment Reduces Entry Risk

    Systematic In ensures that you are investing periodically instead of putting in a lump sum. This reduces the risk of entering the market at a high point and spreads your investment cost through rupee cost averaging.


  2. Gradual Withdrawal Maintains Corpus Stability

    In the Systematic Out phase, only a portion of your fund is withdrawn at regular intervals. The remaining corpus stays invested and continues to generate returns, ensuring capital appreciation and sustained income.


  3. Built-in Life Insurance Cover

    SISO, when implemented through ULIPs or life insurance products, provides life cover. This offers an added layer of protection, ensuring that your loved ones are financially secure even if something happens to you.


  4. Liquidity Without Full Encashment

    With SISO, you don’t need to liquidate the entire fund to meet your expenses. Instead, you receive payouts in regular intervals, and the rest of the money remains invested, thereby maintaining liquidity without disrupting your growth plan.


  5. Adaptability to Life Goals

    Whether it’s managing daily household expenses, paying for your child’s education, or covering post-retirement costs, SISO adapts to your life needs by giving you timely access to funds.



Real-Life Scenarios: How SISO Balances Investment and Liquidity

Case 1: Ramesh, 30 Years Old – Early Investor

Ramesh invests ₹5,000 every month into a ULIP with a SISO structure. After 20 years, he begins receiving monthly payouts while the remaining corpus continues to grow. He doesn’t have to redeem his full fund and still enjoys regular income.


Case 2: Arvind, 60 Years Old – Retiree

Arvind uses ULIP product with SISO. He invests a lump sum and starts receiving monthly income. His fund remains secure, and he doesn't need to depend on others for his post-retirement expenses.


Benefits of Staying Invested with SISO

  1. Compounding Effect

    The longer you stay invested, the more your wealth grows due to compounding. SISO encourages this by avoiding sudden fund withdrawals.


  2. Avoids Emotional Investing

    With SISO, you’re not reacting to market ups and downs. You invest and withdraw systematically, avoiding panic decisions.


  3. Long-Term Wealth Creation

    The retained corpus continues to earn returns over time, helping you build long-term wealth.


  4. Income Continuity

    Even as you stay invested, you enjoy income continuity through regular withdrawals, making budgeting easier.


  5. Liquidity Benefits of SISO

    1. Flexibility in Withdrawals

      Depending on the product, you may have the flexibility to set the frequency and amount of your payouts.


    2. No Need for Premature Withdrawals

      Since you receive scheduled payouts, there's no need to break your investment prematurely.


    3. Meets Emergency Needs

      In plans like ULIPs, partial withdrawals are allowed after a specific period. This can be helpful during medical emergencies or other unforeseen expenses.
