12. Principles of insurance by Shah Junaid ID:9722

13. Principles of insurance Principle of Indemnity Principle of Insurable interest Principle of Utmost good faith Principle of Contribution Principle of Subrogation Principle of Proximate cause

14. 1. Principle of Indemnity This means the insured cannot make a profit from an insurance claim. For example if you have a four year motorcar and it is damaged, the insurance company will only give you the current value not the value when it was new.

15. 2. Principle of insurable Interest To insure anything the Insured must have an insurable interest in the subject matter of insurance, i.e. he/she must benefit by its safety or be biased by its loss. For example you can insure your own home , but not your friend’s home. In the same way you can take out Assurance on your wife’s life, but not that of your neighbour.

16. 3. Principle of utmost good faith The insured and the insurer are bound by a good faith,honesty and fairness. For examples if the loss occurs, they will check the facts and if in-accurate details have been given they will not pay damages to incurred.

17. 4. Principle of Contribution One can insurance the same propriety item with more then one insurance company, the insured can’t demand more then total loss from all companies put together In sample words there is no advantage insuring the same risk with two companies.

18. 5. Principle of Subrogation Insurance company has the legal right to claim compensation from any other party that caused the accident. For example Vehicle A hits B, which as a result hits C. C will claim of B’s insurance company, but that insurance company has the right to claim from A’s insurance company, as it was A that really caused the damage to C.

19. 6. Principle of Proximate cause The damage to the prosperity can takes place due to many causes the insurer company will look first cause of damage or the original cause of damage.
