Insurance is a technique for handling an already existing pure risk.

Basic Characteristics of Insurance
![Page 6: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
1- Pooling of losses
![Page 7: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Losses incurred by the few are spread over the entire group, so that in the process,
average loss is substituted for actual loss.
![Page 8: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Pooling is essential for two reasons:
-losses of the few are spread over the entire group, so that average loss is substituted for actual loss. Thus, the financial burden of the loss is shared by the entire group.
-pooling involves the grouping of a large number of exposure units so that the law of large numbers can operate to provide a substantially accurate prediction of future losses.

2- Payment of fortuitous losses
![Page 10: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Insurance plans provide for the pooling of fortuitous losses. A fortuitous loss is one that is unforeseen and unexpected and
occurs as a result of chance.
![Page 11: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
3- Risk transfer
![Page 12: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
In private insurance, a pure risk is transferred from the insured to the insurer,
which typically is in a better financial position to pay the loss than the insured.

These risks are generally uninsurable for several reasons:- many of these risks are speculative risks, which are difficult to insure privately.
- the potential for a catastrophic loss is great; this is particularly true for political risks, such as the risk of war.
- calculation of the proper premium may be difficult because the chance of loss cannot be accurately estimated.

Insurance Distinguished from Other Transactions
![Page 41: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
How Insurance Differs from Gambling
![Page 42: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
1. Insurance eliminates a pure risk, while gambling creates a new speculative risk.
![Page 43: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
2. Insurance is socially productive, since both the insured and insurer win if the
loss does not occur; while gambling is socially unproductive,
since the winner's gain comes at the expense of the loser .
![Page 44: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
How Insurance Differs from Hedging
![Page 45: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Hedging is a technique for handling risks that are typically uninsurable, such as protection against a substantial decline in the price of
commodities.
![Page 46: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
1. Insurance transfers a pure risk, while hedging involves the transfer of a
speculative risk.
![Page 47: Insurance and Risk. Meaning of Insurance Requirements of an Insurable Risk Description of Insurable and Uninsurable Risks Insurance Distinguished from](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061520/56649f115503460f94c23d02/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
2. Insurance reduces objective risk, because of application of the law of
large numbers; while hedging does not.
Hedging typically involves only risk transfer, not risk reduction.
