13 Teams
__
Average talent teams that get along well with each other are more productive than gifted teams that don’t get along. It doesn’t matter how well a team with low emotional intelligence is in control of the numbers. They can’t even decide what to try to do.
14 Stress
___
Difficulties at work and in our relationships put us under stress. Stress makes it difficult for us to find solutions to problems. When we can’t find solutions to problems, we get more stressed. To get rid of this dead end, we need to know how to manage our stressful situations.
15 Marriage
____
The secret of long and happy marriages is sincerity in your feelings. If your marriage was not built on this basis of intimacy from the very beginning, it will begin to crack over the years. Even small problems become unsolvable. You have to be emotionally open at the beginning of the road.
16 Leadership
______
Leadership does not mean dominance. Leading your colleagues to a common goal and making them believe in the reality of this purpose. Successful leaders are those who can keep their team’s motivation alive for many years. You have to make them desire the work to be done.
17. Emotions Are All Normal
___
Anger, hatred, love, happiness… You can understand when and under what circumstances these feelings will emerge by following yourself. You may have these feelings depending on how you interpret the events you encounter. The important thing is to be able to react independently of your feelings. You may find yourself making promises that you cannot keep because you are happy, or you may resort to violence when you are angry.
18/ Being able to Express Your Emotions
____
Not everyone’s level of empathy can be very good. You may be in a difficult situation immediately. You may feel bad, but people may not understand it. In these situations, you may need to express your feelings a little more directly.
19/You Are Not Your Emotions
______
Keep doing what you need to do, no matter how you feel. Success is achieved by people who cannot give up no matter what their feelings and thoughts are. Don’t let your feelings affect your actions.
20/ Timing
__
As soon as you feel a different emotion, try to think before you act. Because emotional intelligence moves faster than rational intelligence, it can make you act irrationally and make you say any unnecessary words.

Meaning of Risk
Risk vs Uncertainty
Risk vs Probability
Risk, Peril and Hazard
Classification of Risk
Risk Related To Business Activities
Burden of Risks on Society
3. 1.1Meaning of Risk
There is no one universal and comprehensive definition of risk that exists so far
Risk traditionally has been defined in terms of uncertainty, concerning the occurrence of a
loss.
Consider the following definitions:
o Risk is the possibility of an unfortunate occurrence.
o Risk is a combination of hazards.
o Risk is unpredictability – the tendency that actual results may differ from predicted
results.
o Risk is uncertainty of loss.
o Risk is possibility of loss
4. Common Elements In The
Definitions:-
Indeterminacy:- means the outcome must be in question
o When risk is said to exist there must be at least two possible outcomes
o If we know for certain that a loss occurs, there is no risk.
Loss:- at least one of the possible outcomes is undesirable may be loss.
*IF THE OUTCOME IS ONE AND KNOWN IN ADVANCE
THEREFORE, THERE IS NO RISK
5. 1.2 Risks versus Uncertainty
Uncertainty
Doubt about our ability to predict the future outcome
of current actions.
Arises when an individual perceives that outcomes
cannot be known with certainty
Describes a state of mind.
The level and type of information on the nature of a
risky activity have an important effect on uncertainty.
6. 1.3 Risks versus Probability (Chance of Loss)
Risk is the level of possibility that an action lead to a loss/undesirable outcome. But
Probability (Chance of Loss) used to measure /estimation of how likely the event will occur.
Probability has both objective and subjective aspects.
Objective Probability:
Objective probability refers to the long-run relative frequency of an event based on the
assumptions of an infinite number of observations and of no change in the underlying
conditions
Objective probabilities can be determined in two ways:-
Inductive Reasoning
Deductive Reasoning
7. 1.3 Risks versus Probability (Chance of Loss)
Subjective Probability:
Is the individual’s personal estimate of chance of loss
Awide variety of factors can influence subjective probability, including
APerson’s Age
Gender
Intelligence
Education, And
The Use of Alcohol.
8. 1.4 RISK, PERIL AND HAZARD
Peril:
Aperil is a potential event or factor that can cause a loss,
Common perils that cause property damage included fire, lightning,
windstorm, hail, tornadoes, earthquakes, theft and robbery.
Hazard:
Ahazard is a condition that creates or increases the chance of loss.
it is possible for something to be both a peril and hazard
9. 1.4 RISK, PERIL AND
HAZARD…
There are four major types of hazards:
Physical hazard: physical condition that
increases the chance of loss
Moral Hazard: dishonesty or character defects in
an individual that increase the frequency or
severity of loss
Morale Hazard: carelessness or indifference to a
loss because of existence of insurance.
Legal Hazard: characteristics of the legal system
or regulatory environment that increase the
frequency or severity of losses
10. Individual Assignment

Conducting a Hazard Assessment
Hazard Assessments
A hazard assessment is a thorough assessment of
the workplace or specific task for the purpose of
identifying what actual and potential hazards exist.
with the intent, where possible, to first eliminate
the hazard or reduce the hazard by using
engineering controls, administrative controls, or
personal protective equipment
11. 1.5 CLASSIFICATION OF RISK
The major
Risk can be classified into several distinct categories.
categories are as follows:
Objective and subjective Risks.
Pure and Speculative Risks.
Fundamental and Particular Risks.
Financial and non-financial
Static and dynamic Risks:
12. 1.5 CLASSIFICATION OF RISK
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Objective Risk (Statistical Risk)
Objective risk is defined as the relative variation of actual loss from
expected loss
Objective risk declines as the number of exposures increases
As the number of exposures increases, can predict future loss
experience more accurately because it can rely on the law of large
number
13. 1.5 CLASSIFICATION OF RISK
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Subjective Risk
uncertainty based on a person’s mental condition or state of mind
High subjective risk often results in conservative and prudent
behavior, while
low subjective risk may result in less conservative behavior.
14. 1.5 CLASSIFICATION OF RISK…
Pure Risks:
a situation in which there are only the possibilities
of loss or not loss.
The only possible outcomes are adverse (loss) and
neutral (no loss)
Examples: premature death, industrial accidents,
terrible medical expenses, and damage to property
from fire, lightning, flood, or earthquake.
The major types of pure risk that can create great
financial insecurity include
Personal Risks.
Property Risks.
Liability Risks.

15. 1.5 CLASSIFICATION OF RISK…
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Personal Risks. There are four major personal risks.
Risk of premature death.
Risk of insufficient income during retirement.
Risk of poor health.
Risk of unemployment.
16. 1.5 CLASSIFICATION OF RISK…
Property Risks:-
Direct loss: financial loss that results from
the physical damage, destruction, or theft of
the property
Indirect loss or consequential loss is
financial loss that results indirectly from the
occurrence of a direct physical damage or

Asystematic process for:
The identification and evaluation of pure loss exposures faced by an
organization or individual
and for the selection and administration of the most appropriate
technique for treating such exposures
such that negative outcomes are minimized (or avoided altogether),
and positive outcomes are capitalized upon.
29. 2.2 Objectives of Risk Management

38. Techniques for Identifying Risks:
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Loss Exposure Checklists:
specifies numerous potential sources of loss from destruction of assets
and from legal liability
Some are designed for specific industries
such as manufacturers, retail stores, educational institutions, or religious
organizations
Others focuses on a specific category of exposure
such as real and personal property
39. Step 2:Risk Measurement
(Risk Evaluation)
To evaluate and measure the impact
of losses on the firm.
This step involves on estimation of
the potential frequency and severity
of loss.
Loss frequency
Refers to the probable number
of losses that may occur during
the
some given period.
Loss severity
Refers to the probable size of the
losses that may occur.
RVU Finfinnee Campus
40. Step 2: Risk Measurement (Risk
Evaluation)…
This is important so that the various loss
exposures can be ranked according to their
relative importance
In addition, the relative frequency and
severity of each loss exposure must be
estimated so that the risk manager can
select the most appropriate technique, or
combination of techniques, for treating the
loss exposure.
RVU Finfinnee Campus
41. Guidelines for
Measuring Severity:
Maximum possible loss
- is the worst loss that could possibly happen to
the firm during its lifetime.
- Is the "worst case scenario" and the most
pessimistic view
Maximum probable loss (PML)
- is the worst loss that is likely to happen.
-is inversely proportional to the size of a
structure and the effectiveness of any
protective safeguards.
RVU Finfinnee Campus
42. Step 3: Select the appropriate techniques
for treating loss exposure (Risk Control)
The major techniques to handling risks are:
1. Risk Control
Risk Avoidance
Loss Control
2. Risk Financing Technics
Risk Retention
Insurance
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Non-Insurance Transfer
43. 1. Risk Control
Risk Avoidance
- Avoidance means a certain loss exposure is never
acquired, or
- An existing loss exposure is abandoned
- Conscious decision not to expose oneself or one’s firm
to a particular risk of loss
- To decrease one’s chance of loss to zero
- The firm may not avoid all the losses and may not be
feasible or practical to avoid all the exposures
RVU Finfinnee Campus
44. 1. Risk Control …
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Loss Control
- When losses cannot be avoided, actions may be taken to reduce the
probability of losses or to decrease the cost of losses that do occur
- Involves making conscious decisions regarding the ways those
activities will be conducted
45. 1. Risk Control …
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Loss Control:
-Two methods of classifying loss control involve focus and timing.
Focus of Loss Control:
- Designed primarily to reduce loss frequency
- Referred to as frequency reduction or Loss Prevention
For example:- measurers that reduce truck accidents include driver
examinations, zero tolerance for alcohol or drug abuse and strict
enforcement of safety rules or installation of safety features, placement of
warning labels on dangerous products
46. 1. Risk Control …
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Loss Control:
-Two methods of classifying loss control involve Focus and Timing.
Timing of Loss Control:
Pre-Loss Activities
o Loss Prevention

59. 3.1 Definition of Insurance
insurance is contractual agreement between
two parties: the person (Insured) and
Insurance companies. When a person buys
private insurance, she/he is entering into a
contract with the insurer that entitles the
person (Insured) to certain advantages but
also imposes certain responsibilities such as
payment of a premium and satisfying certain
conditions specified in the policy.
RVU Finfinnee Campus
60. 3.1 Definition of
Insurance…
Insurance is the pooling of
accidental losses by transfer
of such risks to insurers,
who agree to indemnify
insureds for such losses, to
provide other financial
benefits on their occurrence,
or to render services
connected with the risk

62. 3.2 BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF
INSURANCE…
Pooling or Sharing of Losses
The spreading of losses incurred by the few over the
entire group, so that in the process, average loss is
substituted for actuarial
pooling implies (1) the sharing of losses by the entire
group, and (2) prediction of future losses with some
accuracy based on the law of large numbers
The larger the risk pool, the more predictable and
stable the premiums can be

Payment of Accidental Losses
An accidental loss is one that the unforeseen
and unexpected and occurs randomly as a
result of chance
RVU Finfinnee Campus
64. 3.2 BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF
INSURANCE…
Risk Transfer:
Risk transfer means that a pure risk is
transferred from the insured to the insurer,
who typically is in a stronger financial
position to pay the loss than the insured
Pure risk Include the risk of premature
death, poor health, disability, destruction
and theft of property, and liability lawsuits.
RVU Finfinnee Campus
65. 3.2 BASIC CHARACTERISTICS OF
INSURANCE…
Indemnification
Indemnification refers to a situation in which
one party (the “indemnifying” party) agrees or
is required to cover the costs, losses and/or
expenses experienced by another party (the
“indemnified” party)
Indemnification means that the insured is
restored to his or her approximate financial
position prior to the occurrence of the loss

67. 3.3 REQUIREMENTS (FUNDAMENTALS)
OF AN INSURABLE RISK…
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Large Number of Exposure Units
THE THEORY OF INSURANCE IS BASED ON THE LAW OF LARGE NUMBERS
o Therefore, the prime necessity for a risk to be insurable is that there
must be a sufficiently large number of homogeneous exposures to
combine reasonably predictable losses
o Lost data can be compiled over time, and losses for the group can be
predicted with some accuracy. The loss costs can then be spread over all
insured in the underwriting class.

78. 3.3 REQUIREMENTS (FUNDAMENTALS)
OF AN INSURABLE RISK…
Accidental and Unintentional Loss
The loss should be accidental and
outside the insured’s control
if an individual deliberately causes a
loss, he or she should not be

Actual Cash Value (Actual Amount of the Loss):
The concept of actual cash value underlies the principles
of indemnity
The basic method of indemnifying the insured is based on
the actual cash value of the damaged property at the time
loss
116. 4.1 PRINCIPLE OF INDEMNITY…
Actual Cash Value (Actual Amount of
the Loss):
three major methods to determine
actual cash value:
o Replacement cost less depreciation
o Fair Marker Value
o Broad Evidence Rule
RVU Finfinnee Campus
117. Broad Evidence Rule…
Relevant factors include :-
Replacement cost less depreciation
Fair market value
Present value of expected income from the
property
Comparison sales of similar property
Opinions of appraisers and numerous other
factors
RVU Finfinnee Campus
118. Exceptions To The Principle of
Indemnity
The important exceptions to the
principle of indemnity are as follows
oV
alued policy
oV
alued policy laws
oReplacement cost of insurance
oLife Insurance
RVU Finfinnee Campus
119. Exceptions To The
Principle of Indemnity
Avalued policy pays the face amount of
insurance if a total loss occurs
Valued policy law that requires payment
of the face amount of insurance to the
insured if a total loss to real property
occurs from a peril specified in the law
Replacement cost insurance means
there is no deduction for depreciation in
determining the amount paid for a loss
Alife insurance contract is not a contract
of indemnity
, but it is a valued policy that
pays a stated sum to the beneficiary upon
the insured’
s death
RVU Finfinnee Campus
120. 4.2 PRINCIPLE OF INSURABEL
INTEREST
The principle of insurable interest states that the
insured must be in a position to loss financially if
a loss occurs.
The insured may loss financially if the
property is damaged or stolen or destroyed
RVU Finfinnee Campus
121. 4.2 PRINCIPLE OF INSURABEL
INTEREST…
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Insurance contract must be supported by an insurable
interest for the following reasons:-
o To prevent gambling
o To reduce moral hazard
o To measure the amount of the insured’s loss in
property insurance.
122. INSURABEL INTEREST
REQUIREMENTS
Property Insurance:
Ownership of property can support
an insurable interest because
owners of property will loss
financially if their property is
damaged or destroyed
RVU Finfinnee Campus
123. INSURABEL INTEREST
REQUIREMENTS
Liability Insurance:
Potential legal liability can also
support an insurable interest
The insured may be legally liable for
damaged to the third party caused by
negligence
RVU Finfinnee Campus
125. The Insurable Interest To Be Valid Must Be
Recognized As Such Under The Law And Must
Satisfy The Following Conditions:
RVU Finfinnee Campus
There must be some subject matter of insurance such as
physical object or potential liability;
There must be risk to which the subject matter is exposed
The insured must have some legally recognized relationship
with the subject matter insured.
The insured should stand to benefit by the safety of the subject
matter and should incur loss by its destruction or damage; and
The subject matter should be measurable in terms of money.
126. 4.3 PRINCIPLE OF SUBROGATION
Subrogation means substitution of the insurer in place of the insured for the purpose
of claiming indemnity from a third person for a loss covered by insurance
The insurer is therefore entitled to recover from a negligent third party any loss
payments made to the insured
the insured gives to the insurer legal rights to collect damages from the third party
RVU Finfinnee Campus
127. Purposes of Subrogation
To Prevents the
insured from
collecting twice for
the same loss.
To hold the guilty
person responsible
for the loss.
To hold down
insurance rates.
RVU Finfinnee Campus
128. 4.4 PRINCIPEL OF UTMOT GOOD
FAITH (Uberrima fides)
RVU Finfinnee Campus
A higher degree of honest is imposed on both parties to an
insurance contract than is imposed on parties to other
contracts
The principle of utmost good faith is supported by three
important legal doctrines:
o Representations
o Concealments
o Warranty
129. Legal Doctrines implementing The principle
of Utmost Good Faith
Utmost good
faith
Representation
concealment
warranty
RVU Finfinnee Campus
130. The Concept of Utmost Good Faith principle Is
implemented by Three Legal Doctrines:
Representations:
Representations are statements made by the applicant for insurance
the insurance contract is avoidable at the insurer’s option if the
representation is:
• (1) Material,
• (2) False, and
• (3) Relied on by the insurer/Estoppel
RVU Finfinnee Campus
131. The Principle Of Utmost Good Faith Is Supported
By Three Important Legal Doctrines:
Concealment:
Concealment is intentional failure of the applicant for
insurance to reveal a material fact to the insurer
Nondisclosure deliberately withholds material information
from the insurer
RVU Finfinnee Campus
132. The Principle Of Utmost Good Faith Is Supported
By Three Important Legal Doctrines:
Warranty:
A warranty is a statement of fact, or a promise made by the
insured, which is part of the insurance contract
and must be true if the insurer is to be liable under the
contract
RVU Finfinnee Campus
133. 4.5 PRINCIPLE OF CONTRIBUTION
RVU Finfinnee Campus
Contribution is the right of an insurer who has paid under
a policy, to call upon other insurers equally or otherwise
liable for the same loss to contribute to the payment
The contribution may be a proportional amount based on
the sum insured under the respective insurers.
134. 4.5 PRINCIPLE OF CONTRIBUTION…
RVU Finfinnee Campus
An example:
Given that, Businessman insures his factory under three fire policies for a total of
Birr 10,000,000 Company (A) provides 5,000,000 birr under one policy, company
(B) provides 2,000,000 birr under the second policy and company (C) provides
3,000,000 birr under the third policy. Each of the three companies will share the
payment of losses in proportion to the amount of the total coverage, depending on
the amount secured for each. If the factory had exposed to fire and the loss is 500,000
L.E, How much businessman will collect and how much every company should pay?
135. 4.5 PRINCIPLE OF CONTRIBUTION…
RVU Finfinnee Campus
The principle of contribution is enforceable only under the
following conditions:
The policies must cover the same period.
The policies must have been enforcing at the time of loss
They must protect the same peril.
The subject matter of insurance must be the same, and
The insured must be the same person.
136. 4.6. PRINCIPLE OF PROXIMATE
CAUSE
RVU Finfinnee Campus
The principle of the proximate cause means the insurance
company is liable to indemnity the insured, if the insured
risk is the proximate cause of the loss.
Proximate cause literally means the ‘nearest cause’ or
‘direct cause’.
This principle is applicable when the loss is the result of
two or more causes
The principle does not apply in case of life insurance
137. ESSENTIAL REQUIREMNTS OF AN
INSURANCE CONTRACT
The agreement must be for a legal purpose
The parties must have legal capacity to contract
There must be evidence of agreement of the parties to the promises (offer and
acceptance)
The promises must be supported by some consideration

or by nomination
must exist at theii time of taking the
policy and at the time of loss
the financial right can be transferred only
by assignment with prior permission of
the insurer
CONTRACT life insurance is not a contact of

III) Increasing Term Contract
Designed to combat the effects of inflation

determined in advance (often 10%) Whenever the sum assured
is increased, the premium is correspondingly raised
the amount of death benefit depends on when the insured dies;
the later this occurs, the higher the death benefit

There are three primary elements (major determinants) in life
insurance rate making:
o Mortality Charge
o Interest Charge
o Loading Charge

Mortality Charge is the amount charged every
year by the insurer to provide the life cover to
the policyholder on the life of the Life Insured

176. Mortality Rate
RVU Finfinnee Campus
• is a measure of the number of deaths (in general, or due to a specific
cause) in some population, scaled to the size of that population, per
unit time.
Death rate= the number of deaths recorded X 1000
the number of people in the population
177. Mortality Table
is a table based on past data on life
expectancy of human beings.
It is based on the age factor
