Optimization aims to find the best settings for variables to achieve a desired response.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address

ING in India:
In India, ING is present in all three fields of banking, insurance and asset management in the
form of ING, ING Vysya Life Insurance and ING Investment Management respectively. The
presence in all three fields signifies the importance that the group attaches to the Indian markets
and the group's operations here, as well as its bullish future outlook on the country.
ING and ING Vysya Life Insurance are headquartered at Bangalore, while the corporate office of
ING Investment Management is situated at Mumbai. The synergies arising out of the three
distinct but complimentary businesses are bound to be an asset to the group in the changing
market dynamics of the future. The first such signs are already visible on the horizon with
combined products being successfully launched by the different entities of the group in
conjunction with each other.

On the other hand, ING group originated in 1990 from the merger between Nationale –
Nederlanden NV the largest Dutch Insurance Company and NMB Post Bank Groep NV.

changing the statutory name to ―ING Group N.V.‖.
Profile:
ING has gained recognition for its integrated approach of banking, insurance and asset
management. Furthermore, the company differentiates itself from other financial service

of all the stake holders.

a helping hand to those who weren't privileged enough to enjoy banking services.

Conclusions
Our exhaustive research in the field of Life Insurance threw up some interesting trends which
can be seen in the above analysis. A general impression that we gathered during Data collection
was the immense awareness and knowledge among people about various companies and their
16. “Study on Consumer Buying Behaviour for Life Insurance” of ING Vysya Life Insurance
Company Limited in Hubli
Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com Page 16
insurance products. People are beginning to look beyond LIC for their insurance needs and are
willing to trust private players with their hard earned money.
People in general have been impression by the marketing and advertising campaigns of insurance
companies. A high penetration of print, radio and Television ad campaigns over the years is
beginning to have its impact now.
Another heartening trend was in terms of people viewing insurance as a money back guaranty
and investment instrument as much as a protective one. A very high number of respondents have
opted for insurance for such purposes and it shows how insurance companies have been
successful to attract public money in recent times.
The general satisfaction levels among public with regards to policy and agents still requires
improvement. But therein lies the opportunity for a relative new comer like ING Vysya Life
Insurance Company Ltd. LIC has never been known for prompt service or customer oriented
methods and ING Vysya Life Insurance can build on these factors.
