    Life is full of

    uncertainties due to different types of risks like death, accidents, loss of

    health and property, famine, fire, earthquakes and so on. Everyday some

    unfavourable events do happen which cause anxiety to our life and disturb

    our peace of mind. Human beings always sought protection from such risks.

    Insurance is the answer to these types risk and uncertainties. Insurance is

    based on the principal that a group of persons exposed to similar type of

    risks join together and pool their resources to help the few unfortunate ones

    and meet the loss. Insurance is the process in which losses of few are served

    by many persons who are equally exposed to some risks. Its basic purpose is

    to derive the plans to meet financial consequences of unfavourable

    happenings. The unfortunate ones in a group, who suffer from risk, get

    compensation out of the pooled resources. In a way, the personal who are

    fortunate and dont face any loss, share the burden of the unfortunate

    sufferers. As such insurance is a cooperative device to share the sufferings of

    unfortunate persons in a group.

    Human beings can never live in isolation because man is a

    social animal. He always tries to live in community and contributes to

    societys well- being and gets substance and protection from the society in

    which he lives. The modern concept of insurances is based on this principle.

    Insurance is a social device for eliminating or reducing the cost of society

    for certain types of risks.

    Origin of Life Assurance:

    Life Assurance was born in England when the first policy providing

    temporary cover for a period of 12 months was issued as early as 1583 A.D.

    the Amicable Society started granting fluctuating sum on death since 1705

    and a fixed sum since 1757. With the development of mortality tables, Life

    Assurance acquired a scientific character. The Equitable Society founded in

    1762 was the first Society established on scientific basis.

    In India, after failure of two British companies, the European and

    the Albert in 1870, which attempted writing business on Indian

    lives, first Indian Life Assurance Society was formed in the same

    year called Bombay Mutual Assurance Society Ltd. it was

    followed by the Oriental Life Assurance Company Limited I 1874,

    Bharat in 1896and Empire of India in 1897.

    The Swadeshi

    Movement of 1905 provided impetus to the formation of several

    companies such as the Hindustan Co-operative, the United India,

    the Bombay Life, the National. Further in the wake of freedom

    movement number of companies such as the New India, the

    Jupiter the Lakshmi emerged.

    The Government

    began to exercise a certain measure of control on insurance

    business by passing the Insurance business by passing the

    Insurance Act in 1912. For controlling Investment of funds,

  • 7/31/2019 Bajaj-1.doc

    5/33

    expenditure and management, a comprehensive Act 1938. For

    controlling the affirm, the office of Controller of Insurance was

    established. The act was extensively amended in 1950.

    In the year 1955,

    approximately 170 insurance Offices and 80 provident Fund

    Societies had been registered for transacting Life Assurance

    business in India. There were, however, no full guarantees to the

    policyholders. The concept of trusteeship was lacking. Many

    Insurance companies went into Liquidation. There were

    malpractices in insurance business. For achieving the followingpurposes it was felt necessary to nationalize the insurance business

    in India.

    To provide security to the policyholders.

    To utilize the funds for nation-building activities.

    To avoid cut throat competition.

    To abolish mal-practices.

    To spread the message of Insurance to the rural areas.

    Evolution of Life Insurance:

    The beginning of Life

    Insurance is almost as old as the story of mankind. The term Life

    Insurance is, of course, a concept of modern times. But, the searchfor security commenced with the beginning of human life it self.

    The recorded beginning of human life itself. The recorded

    beginning of concept of Life Insurance is about 6000 years old.

    First Life Policy:

  • 7/31/2019 Bajaj-1.doc

    6/33

    The earliest record

    Life Insurance Policy was issued on 18th June, 1583 on the Life of

    William Gybbons, a citizen of London. The policy was procured

    by Richard Martin. It was under written for 12 months by 16

    individuals for an amount of 383-6s-8d with premium @ 8% i.e.

    30-13-4. The text of the policy ended with an interesting prayer.

    God send the said William Gybbons died on May 29, 1584, that is

    within a year. The underwriters disputed the claim pleading that

    the insured had survived 12 lunar months of 28 days each. The

    claim was finally paid through the Court.DEFINITION OF INSURANCE

    There can be two

    approaches for defining insurance. One is functional approach

    other is contractual approach.

    The functional approach

    says insurance may be defined as a social device, whereby a large

    group of individuals, through a system of equitable contributions

    may reduce or eliminate measurable risk of economic loss

    common to all member of the group. In similar sense Disnadle has

    defined that Insurance is an instrument of distributing loss of few

    to many. Allen C. Mayer son states Insurance is device for the

    transfer to an insured of certain risks of economic loss that would

    otherwise be borne by the insured.

    Insurance can be

    mainly classified into two categories.

    A) Life Insurance

    B) General Insurance

    The subject matter of Life Insurance is human life. Most of the

    insurance policies are combination of savings and security. The

    insured is promised by the insurance company that during the

    tenure of insurance in case of his death. His nominee will be paid

    the insurance amount. According to section 2 (ii) in Insurance Act

    1938. Life Insurance is the business of effecting contracts of

    insurance upon human life including any contract. Whereby the

    payment of money is assured on death, except death by accident on

    the happening of any contingency dependent on human life and

    any contract, which is subject to the payment of premium for a

    term of the policy, he/she will be paid an amount as per terms of

    the policy.

    General :

    General Insurance covers all different types of activities performed

    by human. These are also called as non-life insurance. Types are:

    House / Office / Factory or any movable Fire Insurance assets

    destroyed in fire.

    Shipment or transportation of goods Marine Insurance by ship,

    destroyed in catastrophe.

    Jewellery / cash / household goods stolen Burglary Insurance or

    robbed.

    Goods in transit by road or railwayCarrier Insurance destroyed.

    Theft or accident of vehiclesVehicle Insurance.

    Financial cover in

    ailments / surgery etc. Health Insurance.

    Insurance is very

    important for modern age. Every human being for his survival

    need for food, clothing and shelter. These are known as basic or

    essential human wants without which our existence is meaningless.

    These human wants give birth to various needs which when

    satisfied give a sense of satisfaction, if these wants are not fulfilled

    one feel deprived and unhappy.

    Insurance is, in fact,

    The new insurance

    companies used to channels of advertising from newspaper and the

    television to insurance agents and direct mailers. The new

    companies focussed their campaigns primarily on building an

    image of trustworthiness and reliability for themselves. Their

    advertisements carried messages like the familys happiness. It has
