WHAT IS INSURANCE?
Insurance is not necessarily an investment from which one expects to get ones back. Nor it
is gambling a gambler takes risks. While insurance offers protection against risks thatalready exist Insurance is a way to share risk with others.
The Origin of Insurance
Insurance has existed for thousand of years a form of creditinsurance was included in the Code of Hammurabi, a collection ofBabylonian laws said to predate the Law of mosses for finance their
trading expeditions in ancient times. Ship owners obtained loansfrom investors, if a ship was lost the owners were not responsiblefor paying back the loans since many ship returned safely. Theinterest paid by numerous ship owners ship owners covered the riskto the lenders.
It was likewise in a maritime setting that later one of the worldsmost famous insurance providers. Lloyds of London was born By1688, Edward famous insurance provider accepts in exchange for
certain payment, to premium. These insurers came to be known asunderwriters. Finally in 1769 Lloyds became a formal group ofunderwriters that in time grew into the foremost market for marinerisks.

How much Insurance do I need?
The main purpose of life insurance is to provide a financial cushionto urn loved ones in the event that something unfortunate shouldhappen to you. One must provide enough, so as to generate a futureincome stream that will take care of the financial needs of theirdependants. How much insurance you need depends on your annualincome, your expenses and your existing assets.
12

Concept of Human life value
Generally speaking, one can estimate the extent of life insurance bycalculating ones human Life Value (HLV). This is the net presentvalue of ones future earnings. Put simply, it is the amount that a
persons family would permanently lose, should any thingunfortunate happen to that person. As a tomb rule, a 30 year oldshould insure oneself for about 8 times hrs or her annual income. At
13
8/3/2019 Financial Consultant Recruitment-HDFC
14/95
35, this is about 6 times. Of course the exact amountmust be adjusted according to the number of dependents, existinginvestments and ones life stage. For instance, if at 30 a person hastwo children and parents to provide for, the amount of insurance
should also be higher.
You can calculate your Human Life Value by multiplying yourcurrent annual income with the number of years remaining for yourretirement.
Lets assume that you are 30 years old and you earn Rs.4, 00,000per annum. Now if your retirement age in 55 you have 25 years togo before retirement. So your Human Life Value is (25 x 4, 00,000)
= Rs. 100, 00,000 (One Crore rupees).
So, your present Human life Value is one crore rupees, provided youstay healthy. You take factors like inflation and increase in incomeover a period of time to account your Human Life Value is a lotmore.
The History of Insurance in India :
The India Insurance market has a grand history. The development ofinsurance states back of the 19th century when the Europeans startedthe Oriental Life Insurance Company, Calcutta in 1888. The firstIndia Insurance Company Bombay Mutual life Insurance came intoexisting 1870 to cover India lives at normal rates. The year 1870 isalso important in the sense at British government for the first timeact that year. Four years later Firoz shah Mehta one of the doyens of

India Financial Sector, Oriental Governmentestablished the Oriental Government Security Life AssuranceCompany and after that many Insurance companies in surfaced onIndian soil. However the first Indian insurance act was passed on
1912, again in 1938 an amendment in 1950 when it was nationalizedhowever the sector was once again thrown open to the private sectorin Dec 1999 followed by the establishment of IRDA (InsuranceRegulatory and Development Authority in April 2000.
The Indian Insurance Industry was dominated by twostates Insures the Life Insurance Corporation in Life Insurance andThe General Insurance Nationalization of the Life and non Lifesector in 1956 and 1972 respectively. In Dec 99 the IRDA act was
passed which limited foreign investors to a 26% cap on equity
participation, and minimum capital requirement of $20 million. Atpresent, more than 20 private players are in the market and some arein the pipeline. The advent of the new kids poses to LIC to somewhat extent, door which LIC will have to change its current policesregarding marketing and product management.
The Life Insurance Scenario in India:
Since 1956, with the nationalization if insurance Industry, the statesrun Life Insurance Corporation of India has held the monopoly incountrys life insurance sector. General Insurance Corporation ofIndia (GIC), with its four subsidiaries, was its counterpart in thecasualty sector. Over the time, taking advantages of its monopolyand virtual prerogative in establishing the premiums, LIC has
15
8/3/2019 Financial Consultant Recruitment-HDFC
16/95
evolved in to a monolith. With around 60000 agents inever nook and corner of the vast country, it has created an enviable
brand name. Particularly among the rural population of the country.It has around $40 billion as its financial sector. However, on the
qualitative side, it has every little pride in, and there lies thepotential for players to challenge this behemoth.
As typical with monopolies, the premiums rates charged LIC areamong the highest in the world, and its track record in customerservice can at best be called shabby. With a huge unionized, rigidworkforce mostly in clerical category. LIC run the risk of high fixedcost, which will be the deciding factor productivity in thecompetitive scenario. While boasting full scale automations of its
operation, the truth is that its technology outdated. The new players.With the state of the art technology under the belt, will be inadvantageous position . 80% of LICs business is procured by 20%of its ill trained agent force. The foreign player with the domestic
partners string brand value, can test the unconventional distributionchannels like brokers, the Internet the banking distribution systemetc., although foreign players may be tempted to keep theiroperations in big cities for the cream layer of the society, the real
market lies in rural India, which accounts for the lions share ofLICs present business. The foreign players must adapt to Indianrealities, the well published failures of the world famous consumergoods companies like Electrolux, whirlpool, Reebok, and Nike etc.to gauge the Indian Psyche and sentiments demonstrate the concept.They failed in the area of realistic pricing, product promotion andreaching to the consumer. The foreign companies know the groundrealities to the details.

Policies available in insurance sector
Endowment Policy, India
An endowment policy covers risk for a specified period, at the endof which the sum assured is paid back to the policyholder, alongwith the bonus accumulated during the term of the policy.
17
8/3/2019 Financial Consultant Recruitment-HDFC
18/95
An endowment life insurance policy is designedprimarily to provide a living benefit and only secondarily to providelife insurance protection. Therefore, it is more of an investment thana whole life policy.Endowment life insurance pays the face value of
the policy either at the insured's death or at a certain age or after anumber of years of premium payment. Endowment policy is aninstrument of accumulating capital for a specific purpose and
protecting this savings program against the saver's premature death.
GROUP INSURANCE, INDIA
Group insurance offers life insurance protection under group policies to various groups such as employers-employees,professionals, co-operatives, weaker sections of society, etc. It also provides insurance coverage for people in certain approvedoccupations at the lowest possible premium cost.
Group insurance plans have low premiums. Such plans areparticularly beneficial to those for whom other regular policies are a
costlier proposition. Group insurance plans extend cover to largesegments of the population including those who cannot affordindividual insurance.
A number of group insurance schemes have been designed forvarious groups. These include employer-employee groups,associations of professionals (such as doctors, lawyers, chartered
accountants etc.), and members of cooperative banks, welfare funds,credit societies and weaker sections of society.
JOINT LIFE INSURANCE POLICY, INDIA
18
8/3/2019 Financial Consultant Recruitment-HDFC
19/95
Joint life insurance policies are similar to endowmentpolicies as they too offer maturity benefits to the policyholders,apart form covering risks like all life insurance policies.But joint life policies are categorized separately as they cover two
lives simultaneously, thus offering a unique advantage in somecases, notably, for a married couple or for partners in a businessfirm.
Under a joint life policy the sum assured is payable on the firstdeath and again on the death of the survivor during the term of the
policy. Vested bonuses would also be paid besides the sum assuredafter the death of the survivor. If one or both the lives survive to thematurity date, the sum assured as well as the vested bonuses are
payable on the maturity date.
LOAN COVER TERM ASSURANCE POLICY,
INDIA
Loan cover term assurance policy is an insurance policy, whichcovers a home loan. Such a policy covers the individual's home loanamount in case of an eventuality. The cover on such a policy keeps
reducing with the passage of time as individuals keep paying theirEMIs (equated monthly installments) regularly, which reduces theloan amount.
This plan provides a lump sum in case of death of the life assuredduring the term of the plan. The lump sum will be a decreasing
percentage of the initial sum assured as per the policy schedule.
Since this is a non-participating (without profits) pure risk coverplan, no benefits are payable on survival to the end of the term ofthe policy.
Various insurance companies offering loan repayment protectioninsurance policy are

LIC
MONEY BACK POLICY, INDIA
Money back policy provides for periodic payments of partialsurvival benefits during the term of the policy, as long as the
policyholder is alive.
They differ from endowment policy in the sensethat in endowment policy survival benefits are payable only at the end of theendowment period.
An important feature of money back policies is that in the eventof death at any time within the policy term, the death claimcomprises full sum assured without deducting any of the survival
benefit amounts, which may have already been paid as money-backcomponents. The bonus is also calculated on the full sum assured.
PENSION PLAN, INDIA
A pension plan or an annuity is an investment that is made either ina single lump sum payment or through installments paid over acertain number of years, in return for a specific sum that is receivedevery year, every half-year or every month, either for life or for afixed number of years.
20
8/3/2019 Financial Consultant Recruitment-HDFC
21/95
Annuities differ from all the other forms of life insurance in that anannuity does not provide any life insurance cover but, instead, offersa guaranteed income either for life or a certain period.
Typically annuities are bought to generate income during one'sretired life, which is why they are also called pension plans. By
buying an annuity or a pension plan the annuitant receivesguaranteed income throughout his life.
TERM LIFE INSURANCE POLICY, INDIA
Term life insurance policy covers risk only during the selected termperiod. If the policyholder survives the term, the risk cover comes toan end. Term life policies are primarily designed to meet the needsof those people who are initially unable to pay the larger premiumrequired for a whole life or an endowment assurance policy.
No surrender, loan or paid-up values are granted under term lifepolicies because reserves are not accumulated. If the premium is notpaid within the grace period, the policy lapses without acquiring anypaid-up value.
UNIT LINKED INSURANCE PLANS (ULIP)
Unit linked insurance plan (ULIP) is life insurance solution thatprovides for the benefits of protection and flexibility in investment.The investment is denoted as units and is represented by the valuethat it has attained called as Net Asset Value (NAV). The policyvalue at any time varies according to the value of the underlyingassets at the time.
21
8/3/2019 Financial Consultant Recruitment-HDFC
22/95
ULIP provides multiple benefits to the consumer. The benefitsinclude:
Life protection
Investment and Savings
Flexibility
Adjustable Life Cover
Investment Options
Transparency
Options to take additional cover against
Death due to accident
Disability
Critical Illness
Surgeries
WHOLE LIFE INSURANCE POLICY, INDIA
A whole life policy runs as long as the policyholder is alive. As risk
is covered for the entire life of the policyholder, therefore, such
policies are known as whole life policies. A simple whole life policy
requires the insurer to pay regular premiums throughout the life. In a22
8/3/2019 Financial Consultant Recruitment-HDFC
23/95
whole life policy, the insured amount and the bonus is
payable only to the nominee of the beneficiary upon the death of the
policyholder. There is no survival benefit as the policyholder is not
entitled to any money during his / her own lifetime.
WHY LIFE INSURANCE
