Obviously if you are the nominee then you will get the mutual funds and Policy benefits, but it also depends will making investment how much percentage your husband had mentioned in nominee column. You have to give affidavit on stamp of 100 that no other person is nominee in future.

If anything happens unfortunately, in such cases your all investments, movable and immovable property will be devolve among your legal heirs. It is not mentioned that you belongs to which family, I mean you are Hindu/Mulslim/Christain or if family comes under Indian Succession Act, then different ratio.

Dear Client,

In the event if you both expire the money will go to your legal heirs. But why are you to pessimistic - think good- like good. Life is to enjoy and not for worries.

You can book consultation with any of the empaneled advocate of Lawrato for better advice.
