    Insurance industry employees and executives are indoctrinated with thephilosophy that insurance is good and that policyholders, claimants and lawyers are

"For the mostpart, the people we live and work among -- our neighbors. . . . Moreover, the "rampant"corruption of otherwise honest, "seemingly law-abiding people" is something that thosein the insurance industry "have known for sometime." Insurance company claimsadjusters view themselves as underpaid, overworked vigilantes protecting anunappreciative American public from a horde of thieving, conniving robbers intent onpillage and plunder.

    DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INSURANCE AND ASSURANCE

    Assurance is older in history and it was used to describe all types of insurances. From 1826, theterm assurance came to be used only for the risks covered by life insurance and the terminsurance was exclusively used to denote the risks covered by marine, fire, etc.The word assurance indicated certainty. In life insurance, there is an assurance from theinsurance company to make payment under the policy either on the maturity or at earlier death.On the other hand the word insurance was used to denote indemnity type of insurances where theinsurance company was liable to pay only in case of the loss damage the property.The insured event was bound to happen sooner or later under assurance but the event insuredagainst may or may not happen under insurance.The principle of indemnity applies to insurance contract(non-life) only. The scope of theword, insurance is wider.

    PRINCIPLES OF INSURANCE

    An insurance contract is based on some basic principles of insurance.

    (1) Principle of Uberrima Fides or Principle of utmost good faithIt means maximum truth. Both the parties should disclose all material information regardingthe subject matter of insurance.

    (2) Principle of indemnityThis means that if the insured suffers a loss against which the policy has been made, he shall be

    fully indemnified only to the extent of loss. In other words, the insured is not entitled to make aprofit on his loss.

    (3) Principle of subrogation

    This means the insurer has the right to stand in the place of the insured after settlement of claimsin so far as the insureds right of recovery from an alternative source is involved. The insurerbefore the settlement of the claim may exercise the right. In other words, the insurer is entitled torecover from a negligent third party any loss payments made to the insured. The purposes ofsubrogation are to hold the negligent person responsible for the loss and prevent the insured fromcollecting twice for the same loss. The concept of Third Party Claims is based on the sameprinciple.

    (4) Principle of causa proxima

    The cause of loss must be direct and an insured one in order to claim of compensation.

    (5) Principle of insurable interestThe assured must have insurance interest in the life or property insured.Insurable interest is that interest which considerably alters the position of the assured in the eventof loss taking place and if the event does not take placed, he remains in the same old position

    HISTORY OF INSURANCE

    The concept of insurance is believed to have emerged almost 4500 years ago in the ancient landof Babylonia where traders used to bear risk of the carvan by giving loans, which were laterrepaid with interest when the goods arrived safely.The concept of insurance as we know today took shape in 1688 at a place called Lloyds Coffee

    House in London where risk bearers used to meet to transact business. This coffee house becameso popular that Lloyds became the one of the first modern insurance companies by the end ofthe eighteenth century.Marine insurance companies came into existence by the end of the eighteenth century. Thesecompanies were empowered to write fire and life insurance as well as marine. The Great Fire ofLondon in 1966 caused huge loss of property and life. With a view to providing fire insurancefacilities,Dr. Nicholas Barbon set up in 1967 the first fire insurance company known as the Fire office.The early history of insurance in India can be traced back to the Vedas. TheSanskrit term Yogakshema (meaning well being), the name of LifeInsurance Corporation of Indias corporate head quarters, is found in the Rig Veda. The Aryans

    practiced some form of community insurance around1000 BC.

    Life insurance in its modern form came to India from England in 1818. The Oriental LifeInsurance Company was the first insurance company to be set up in India to help the widows ofEuropean community. The insurance companies, which came into existence between 1818 and1869, treatedIndian lives as subnormal and charged an extra premium of 15 to 20 per cent. The first Indianinsurance company, the Bombay Mutual LifeAssurance Society came into existence in 1870 to cover Indian lives at normal rates.

    The Insurance Act, 1938, the first comprehensive legislation governing both life and non-lifebranches of insurance were enacted to provide strict state control over insurance business. Thisamended insurance Act looked into investments, expenditure and management of thesecompanies.By the mid- 1950s there were 154 Indian insurers, 16 foreign insurers, and 75 provident societiescarrying on life insurance business in India. Insurance business flourished and so did scams,irregularities and dubious investment practices by scores of companies. As a result thegovernment decided to nationalize the life assurance business in India. The Life InsuranceCorporation of India (LIC) was set up in 1956. The nationalization of life insurance wasfollowed by general insurance in 1972.

    MEANING OF LIFE INSURANCE

    There are three parties in a life insurance transaction: the insurer, the insured, and the owner ofthe policy (policyholder), although the owner and the insured are often the same person.

    Another important person involved in a life insurance policy is the beneficiary. The beneficiary

    is the person or persons who will receive the policy proceeds upon the death of the insured.

    Life insurance may be divided into two basic classes term and permanent.

    Term life insurance provides for life insurance coverage for a specified term of years for

    a specified premium. The policy does not accumulate cash value.

    Permanent life insurance is life insurance that remains in force until the policy matures,

    unless the owner fails to pay the premium when due.

    Whole life insurance provides for a level premium, and a cash value table included in the

    policy guaranteed by the company. The primary advantages of whole life are guaranteed

    death benefits; guaranteed cash values, fixed and known annual premiums, and mortality

    and expense charges will not reduce the cash value shown in the policy.

    Universal life insurance (UL) is a relatively new insurance product intended to provide

    permanent insurance coverage with greater flexibility in premium payment and the

    potential for a higher internal rate of return. A universal life policy includes a cash

    account. Premiums increase the cash account. If you want insurance protection only, andnot a savings and investment product, buy a term life insurance policy.

    If you want to buy a whole life, universal life, or other cash value policy, plan to hold it for atleast 15 years. Canceling these policies after only a few years can more than double your lifeinsurance costs.

    HISTORY OF LIFE INSURANCE

    Risk protection has been a primary goal of humans and institutions throughout history.Protecting against risk is what insurance is all about.Over 5000 years ago, in China, insurance was seen as a preventative measure against piracy onthe sea. Piracy, in fact, was so prevalent, that as a way of spreading the risk, a number of shipswould carry a portion of another ship's cargo so that if one ship was captured, the entire shipmentwould not be lost.In another part of the world, nearly 4,500 years ago, in the ancient land of Babylonia, tradersused to bear risk of the caravan trade by giving loans that had to be later repaid with interestwhen the goods arrived safely. In 2100BC, the Code of Hammurabi granted legal status to the practice. It Formalized concepts ofbottomry referring to vessel bottoms and Respondent referring to cargo. These provided theunderpinning of Marine insurance contracts. Such contracts contained three elements: a loan onthe vessel, cargo, or freight; an interest rate; and a surcharge to cover the Possibility of loss. Ineffect, ship owners were the insured and lenders were the underwriters.

    Life insurance came about a little later in ancient Rome, where burial clubs were formed to coverthe funeral expenses of its members, as well as help survivors monetarily. With Rome's fall,around 450 A.D., most of the concepts of insurance were abandoned, but aspects of it didcontinue through the Middle Ages, particularly with merchant and artisan guilds. These providedforms of member insurance covering risks like fire, flood, theft, disability, death, and evenimprisonment.

    During the feudal period, early forms of insurance ebbed with the decline of travel and long-distance trade. But during the 14th to 16th centuries, transportation, commerce, and insurancewould again reemerge.Insurance in India can be traced back to the Vedas. For instance,yogakshema, the name of Life Insurance Corporation of India's corporate headquarters, isderived from the Rig Veda. The term suggests that a form of "community insurance" wasprevalent around 1000 BC and practiced by the Aryans.

    And similar to ancient Rome, burial societies were formed in the Buddhist period to helpfamilies build houses, and to protect widows and children.

    Modern InsuranceIllegal almost everywhere else in Europe, life insurance in England was vigorously promoted inthe three decades following the Glorious Revolution of 1688. The type of insurance we see todayowes it's roots to 17th century England. Lloyd's of London, or as they were known then, Lloyd'sCoffee House, was the location where merchants, ship owners and underwriters met to discussand transact business deals.

    While serving as a means of risk-avoidance, life insurance also appealed strongly to thegambling instincts of England's burgeoning middle class.Gambling was so rampant, in fact, that when newspapers published names of prominent peoplewho were seriously ill, bets were placed at Lloyds on their anticipated dates of death. Reactingagainst such practices, 79 merchant underwriters broke away in 1769 and two years later formeda New LloydsCoffee House that became known as the real Lloyds. Making wagers on people's deathsceased in 1774 when parliament forbade the practice.

    Insurance moves to AmericaThe U.S. insurance industry was built on the British model. The year 1735 saw the birth of the

    first insurance company in the American colonies in Charleston, SC. The Presbyterian Synod ofPhiladelphia in 1759, sponsored the first life insurance corporation in America for the benefit ofministers and their dependents. And the first life insurance policy for the general public in theUnited States was issued, in Philadelphia, on May 22, 1761.But it wasn't until 80 years later (after 1840), that life insurance really tookoff in a big way. Thekey to its success was reducing the opposition from religious groups.

    In 1835, the infamous New York fire drew people's attention to the need to provide for suddenand large losses. Two years later, Massachusetts became the first state to require companies bylaw to maintain such reserves. The great Chicago fire of 1871 further emphasized how fires cancause huge losses in densely populated modern cities. The practice of reinsurance, wherein the

    risks are spread among several companies, was devised specifically for such situations.

    With the creation of the automobile, public liability insurance, which first made its appearance inthe 1880s, gained importance and acceptance?More advancement was made to insurance during the process of industrialization. In 1897, theBritish government passed the Workmen's Compensation Act, which made it mandatory for acompany to insure its employees against industrial accidents.

    During the 19th century, many societies were founded to insure the life and health of theirmembers, while fraternal orders provided low-cost, members only insurance. Even today, suchfraternal orders continue to provide insurance coverage to members, as do most labor

    organizations. Many employers sponsor group insurance policies for their employees, providingnot just life insurance, but sickness and accident benefits and old-age pensions. Employeescontribute a certain percentage of the premium for these policies.

    Final ThoughtsEven though the American insurance industry was greatly influenced byBritain, the US market developed somewhat differently from that of theUnited Kingdom. Contributing to that was America's size; land diversity and the overwhelmingdesire to be independent. As America moved from a colonial outpost to an independent force,

    from a farming country to an industrial nation, the insurance business developed from a smallnumber of companies to a large industry. Insurance became more sophisticated, offering newtypes of coverage and diversified services for an increasingly complex country.

    KEY FEATURES OF LIFE INSURANCE

    1) Nomination: -When one makes a nomination, as the policyholder you continue to be the owner of the policyand the nominee does not have any right under the policy so long as you are alive. The nomineehas only the right to receive the policy monies in case of your death within the term of the policy.

    2) Assignment: -

    If your intention is that your policy monies should go only to a particular person, you need toassign the policy in favor of that person.

    3) Death Benefit: -

    The primary feature of a life insurance policy is the death benefit it provides.

    Permanent policies provide a death benefit that is guaranteed for the life of the insured, providedthe premiums have been paid and the policy has not been surrendered.

    4) Cash Value: -The cash value of a permanent life insurance policy is accumulated throughout the life of the policy. It equals the amount a policy owner would receive, after any applicable surrendercharges, if the policy were surrendered before the insured's death.

    5) Dividends: -

    Many life insurance companies issue life insurance policies that entitle the policy owner to sharein the company's divisible surplus.

    6) Paid-Up Additions: -

    Dividends paid to a policy owner of a participating policy can be used in numerous ways, one ofwhich is toward the purchase of additional coverage, called paid-up additions.

    7) Policy Loans: -Some life insurance policies allow a policy owner to apply for a loan against the value of theirpolicy. Either a fixed or variable rate of interest is charged.This feature allows the policy owner an easily accessible loan in times of need or opportunity.

    8) Conversion from Term to Permanent: -When in need of temporary protection, individuals often purchase term life insurance. If oneowns a term policy, sometimes a provision is available that will allow her to convert her policyto a permanent one without providing additional proof of insurability.

    9) Disability Waiver of Premium

    Waiver of Premium is an option or benefit that can be attached to a life insurance policy at anadditional cost. It guarantees that coverage will stay in force and continue to gr

    BENEFITS OF LIFE INSURANCE

    1) Risk cover: -Life Insurance contracts allow an individual to have a risk cover against any unfortunate event ofthe future.

    2) Tax Deduction: -Under section 80C of the Income Tax Act of 1961 one can get tax deduction on premiums up toone lakh rupees. Life Insurance policies thus decrease the total taxable income of an individual.

    3) Loans: -An individual can easily access loans from different financial institutions by pledging hisinsurance policies.

    4) Retirement Planning: -What had provided protection against the financial consequences of premature death may now beused to help them enjoy their retirement years.Moreover the cash value can be used as an additional income in the old age.

    5) Educational Needs: -

    Similar to retirement planning the cash values that flow from ones life insurance schemes can beutilized for educational needs of the insurer or his children.

    i CURRENT SCENERIO OF THE INSURANCE INDUSTRY

    With largest number of life insurance policies in force in the world, insurance happens tobe a mega opportunity in India. Its a business growing at the rate of 15-20 per cent annually andpresently is of the order of Rs. 450 billion. Together with banking services, it adds about 7 percent to the countrys GDP. Gross premium collection is nearly 2 per cent of GDP and fundsavailable with LIC for investment are 8 per cent of GDP.

    Yet, nearly 80 percent of Indian population is without life insurance cover while healthinsurance and non-life insurance continues to be below international standards. And this part ofthe population is also subject to weak social security and pension systems with hardly any oldage income security. This it is an indicator that growth potential for the insurance sector isimmense. A well-develop and evolved insurance sector is needed for economic development as itprovides long term funds for infrastructure development and at the same time strengthens the risktaking ability. It is estimated that over the next ten years India would require investments of theorder of one trillion US dollar. The insurance sector, to some extent, can enable investment ininfrastructure development to sustain economic growth of the country. Insurance is a federalsubject in India. There are two legislation that govern the sector - The Insurance Act-1938 andThe IRDA Act-1999.

    In India, insurance is generally considered as a tax-saving device instead of its otherimplied long term financial benefits. Indian people are prone to investing in properties and goldfollowed by bank deposits. They selectively invest in shares also but the percentage is verysmall. Even to this day, Life Insurance Corporation of India dominates India insurance sector.With the entry of private sector players backed by foreign expertise, Indian insurance market hasbecome more vibrant. Business is becoming increasingly vulnerable due to wide variety of riskparticularly after September 11, 2001 disaster in which twin tower located in the hearts of NewYork city were crashed by terrorist attack resulting in loss of 6000 human lives as well as

    financial loss to the extent of $45 billion. The impact of this terrorist attack has created newhorizon of risk to the business world today.

    However, rapid changes in the global economy, development of technology and e-business already gathered momentum. Increased dependency on technology has originated newrisks that have resulted in well-published incidents. Computer hackers obtaining credit cardinformation from visa and Power-Gen, the love bug virus, cyber extortion, web content liability,professional errors and omissions, computers and other crimes and activities such as terrorism,kidnapping and companys executive and extortion of money, commercial liability etc havesignificant impact on business resulting in extreme financial loss, commercial embarrassment orregulatory implications.

    Corporation insurance/risk managers, under the circumstances, have to demandincreasingly complex insurance products. They have to be more attentive and knowledgeableabout emerging risks, how those risks are managed effectively and efficiently, and how theycould ultimately affect a companys financial situation and therefore its position in the marketplace. In short, how such risks are managed and can give to an insured a competitive advantage.

    In the changing times, adoption of e-commerce into business models, the integration ofweb-based communication and data transfer capabilities into the business operations, andleveraging of advanced network and technology architecture for maximum benefit are the newhorizon of the risks. For the corporate insurance/risks managers, these new exposure-cyber-risks-can lead to cyber losses, widening the interpretation of what constitute insure property damage,particularly as it relates to information technology and data.

    All the while, organizations are tremendous pressure to reduce expenses and increase profit margin, and cannot afford to suffer a property loss of business interruption due to anycause (risk). How a company identifies, quantifies, qualifies and manages these new risksexposure, in addition to the well-known tradition risks, is becoming an important factor increating shareholders value. This often means changing the way. Everyone in the organizationhave to think about risk.

    Insurance managers are seeing price levels (premium) continue to rise-albeit modestly-intodays primarily commercial property and reinsurance markets. They are demanding thatinsurers improve their risk assessment and quantification offerings so that an insured may avail

    the benefit in cost (premium rate) on account of well-managed risk.The good news for insurance managers is that as the economy evolves, insurers are

    increasingly matching that evaluation with new products, services and capabilities due toopening up the insurance market to the private players.

    Insurers who are truly listening to their customers and striving to be more in tune withtheir needs are responding to the fast changing corporate insurance and risk managementlandscape. They are listening to their customers. They are making fresh approaches to addressthe new challenges faced by insured organization by designing the new products as per theneeds. Insurers are providing value added services to insured to protect the value created by thebusiness.

    Insurers are increasingly required to develop and expand their information technologyplatforms to ensure that the vast amount of data they collect about their customers. Insurance/riskportfolio can easily and seamlessly be transformed into valuable risk management information.To help their customers, insurers should make better-informed decisions. They must be able toswiftly deliver this data to their customers (insured) anywhere in the world. Insurer are alsodiscovering that risk assessment have to be customized to meet policyholders new exposuresand needs. The insurance industry is stepping up and addressing these challenges in severaldifferent ways.
