4. Ethics involves learning what is right or
wrong, and then doing the right thing -- but
"the right thing" is not nearly as
straightforward as conveyed in a great deal of
business ethics literature.
Many ethicists consider emerging ethical
beliefs to be "state of the art" legal matters, i.e.,
what becomes an ethical guideline today is
often translated to a law, regulation or rule
tomorrow.

5. In 1993, Malhotra Committee, headed by former Finance
Secretary and RBI Governor R.N. Malhotra, was formed to
evaluate the Indian insurance industry and recommended its
figure direction. The Malhotra committee was set up with the
objective of complementing the reforms initiated in the
financial sector.
The key industry drivers are related to lifestyle issues in
terms of perceiving insurance as a savings instrument rather
than for risk cover, need based selling, quality of service and
customer awareness.

6. Insurance is a form of risk management primarily used
to hedge against the risk of a contingent, uncertain loss.
Insurance is defined as the equitable transfer of the risk of a
loss, from one entity to another, in exchange for payment.
An insurer is a company selling the insurance; an insured, or
policyholder, is the person or entity buying the insurance
policy. The insurance rate is a factor used to determine the
amount to be charged for a certain amount of insurance
coverage, called the premium. Risk management, the
practice of appraising and controlling risk, has evolved as a
discrete field of study and practice.
