3. Introduction to Insurance
What is Insurance?
Definitions:
In law and economics, 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.
Insurance is a hedging instrument used as a
precautionary measure against future
contingent losses.
4. Insurance- Introduction
Insurance= Protection against Risk
• Insurance is a co-operative device of distributing
losses, falling on an individual or family over a large
number of persons, each bearing a nominal
expenditure & feeling secured against heavy loss.
• Insurance business has emerged as one of the
prominent financial services during recent
times, particularly in developing countries where it
could not grow before globalization. But it is very
difficult to trace exactly when insurance originated.
5. Contd…
Insurance has always been a politically sensitive subject
in India.
Within less than 10 years of independence, the Indian
government nationalized private insurance companies
in 1956 to bring this vital sector under government
control to raise much needed development funds.
Since then, state-owned insurance companies have
grown into monoliths, lumbering and often inefficient
but the only alternative. They have been criticized for
their huge bureaucracies, but still have millions of
policy holders as there is no alternative.

6. Privatization in insurance
The Narasimha Rao government (1991-96) which unleashed liberal changesin
India's rigid economic structure could not handle this political hot
potato.Ironically, it is the coalition government in power today which has
declaredits intention of opening up insurance to the private sector.
Ironical becausethis government is at the mercy of support from the left
groups which havebeen the most vociferous opponents of any such move.
All segments of the financial sector had been opened to private playerswith
better product, services & social objective
International players are eyeing the vast
potential of the Indian market and are
already making plans to come in.
