2. INTRODUCTION OF INSURANCE
Insurance is a means of protection from financial
loss.
It is a form of risk management primarily used to
hedge against the risk of a contingent, uncertain
loss.
An entity which provides insurance is known as
an insurer, insurance company, or insurance
carrier. A person or entity who buys insurance is
known as an insured or policyholder. 2
3. ELEMENTS OF INSURANCE
Insurer:
The party (i.e. insurance company) which undertakes to protect the insured
from the specified risks and the loss so caused in consideration to a certain
premium received from the insured is known as insurer.
Insured
The person or party who seeks protection against a particular risk and pays
a certain amount in consideration to the recovery of the financial loss is
known as insured.
Premium
It is the fees paid by the insured to the insurer as the consideration of the
insurance contract for the assurance of the recovery of financial loss so
caused. 3
4. ELEMENTS OF INSURANCE
Insured amount
It is the agreed financial value of the future loss caused by certain
events. Insurance is made for the recovery of this value.
Insurance policy
It is the contract between the insured and the insurer containing the
details of the terms and conditions of a certain insurance.

7. DISADVANTAGES
Insurance leads to negligence as the insured feels that he/she
can be compensated for any loss or damage.
Insurance companies do not make the compensation promptly
on maturity of the policy or for the financial losses as the
expectation of the insured.
It may lead to the crimes in the society as the beneficiaries of
the policy may be tempted to commit crimes to receive the
insured amount.
Although insurance encourages savings, it does not provide
the facilities that are provided by bank. 7

and responding to risk.

events”
