1. INTRODUCTION
Insurance is the equitable transfer of the risk of a loss, from one entity to another in exchange for
payment. It is a form of risk management primarily used to hedge against the risk of a contingent,
uncertain loss. An insurer, or insurance carrier, is a company selling the insurance; the insured, or
policyholder, is the person or entity buying the insurance policy. The amount of money to be
charged for a certain amount of insurance coverage is called the premium. Risk management, the
practice of appraising and controlling risk, has evolved as a discrete field of study and practice.
The transaction involves the insured assuming a guaranteed and known relatively small loss in the
form of payment to the insurer in exchange for the insurer's promise to compensate (indemnify)
the insured in the case of a financial (personal) loss. The insured receives a contract, called the
insurance policy, which details the conditions and circumstances under which the insured will be
financially compensated.

innovative products keeping in mind the different needs of people. Most of these companies have
entered the market in collaboration with International firms.
These companies have come up with a bundle of policies which have their own pros and cons.
Every investor has his/her own needs, risk appetite, future goals and budget. As per these factors,
a plan useless for one can be the best for another.
We are providing you with the list of General & Life Insurance companies based on their policy
fees, overall expert ratings, complaint ratings, financial strength, credit ratings and more such
factors. You can also understand the products of these companies by going through the Product
Reviews, Articles and other details that we have provided.
6. Insurance companies help to spread the risk of loss among a large number of their clients.
For example when a company insure your car for a small sum against accidents, it charges
a yearly insurance which is much less than the losses you may have to bear if the accident
actually happened. In return it will compensate you for the actual losses incurred if an
accident actually happens.
7. In this arrangement the clients of the insurance companies benefit by avoiding a major but
uncertain loss which they may be ill prepared to bear by accepting to pay a small but
certain premium. Not only they avoid the big loss they also buy the Peace of mind by
knowing that if some thin goes wrong, the insurance companies will bear the losses.
8. The insurance companies benefit as the premium is so calculated the even after paying for
all the losses occurring against insured events, they will still be left with some surplus
profit.
9. Insurance and insurance companies are grouped in two broad classes - life insurance and
general insurance. Life insurance is protection against pre-mature death of a person. In
case, of premature death of a person, his nominated survivors are paid a sum substantial
sum of money.
10. This sum of money is agreed in advance and the insured person pays premium to
insurance company in proportion to this.
11. General insurance refers to insurance for any thing other than life. It covers loss of
property due to reasons such as theft, accidents, and natural calamities.
12. It also covers expenses for some specific purposes such as medical treatment and liability
for payment of compensation to victims of road accidents.

lost following an interruption to your business which inevitably results from damage to insured
property. This Policy can be taken only in conjunction with a policy that insures your assets (such
