Insurance – An Introduction
The Insurance business is broadly divided into two major categories first is Life Insurance and other one is General Insurance. The Life Insurance covers the loss to Human Life whereas the General Insurance is primarily a Non-Life Insurance, which covers risk associated with various things/affairs one found precious enough to be covered under an Insurance. It is true that the Human Life is most precious asset one can protect but at the same time it is also an undisputed fact that with the passing time several other assets took place in human life which are inevitably part of our day to day life. Human beings have now become materialistic and hence the value of a Human Being also derived from the material assets he possess. This may include your house, vehicles, shops and daily used utensils and equipment etc.
Many a times these kind of activities do not occur for longer period of time, may be for decades, but the fact always remains the same that we are exposed to the risk of happening of any uncertain/unforeseen event. Although, its true, no one can see his/her future but at the same time it is also true that we can predict the future events in a reasonable manner and therefore we always try to avoid certain activities which may lead us to losses and wherever we are unable to avoid some kind of acts we try to protect ourselves from those events.
Simplified Concept of Insurance To cover up the damage occurred due to any foreseen or unforeseen event and mitigate the losses the mankind evolved a wonderful concept of Insurance. Since the occurrence of loss causing events are few in numbers the mechanism of Insurance ensures that the losses to be shared by all members of a certain group which is exposed to similar risk of occurrence of such loss causing event. This mechanism runs over a simple concept of society where we come together to form a group and this grouping make us feel protected and similarly while having the insurance all the risk bearers ensure that any loss occurring in future shall be borne by whole group despite of the fact that actual loss occurred to a very few members in that group.
