INTRODUCTION

Life insurance is a guarantee that your family will receive financial support, even in your

absence. Put simply, life insurance provides your family with a sum of money should

something happen to you. It thus permanently protects your family from financial crises.

In addition to serving as a protective cover, life insurance acts as a flexible money-saving

scheme, which empowers you to accumulate wealth-to buy a new car, get your children

married and even retire comfortably.

Insurance is a contract between two parties whereby one party called insurer undertakes

in exchange for a fixed sum called premiums, to pay the other party called insured a fixed

amount of money on the happening of a certain event.

It provides financial protection to help your family to manage after your death. Insurance

companies collect premiums to provide for this protection. ! loss is paid out of the

premiums collected from the insuring public and the insurance companies act as trustees

to the amount collected

Life insurance:

Life insurance is a contact between you and a life insurance company, which provides

your beneficiary with a pre determined amount in case of your death during the contract

term.

"uying insurance is extremely useful if you are the principal earning member in the

family .In case of your unfortunate premature demise, your family can remain finically

secure because of the life insurance policy that you have purchased.

#he primary purpose of life insurance is therefore protection of the family in the event of

that are associated with us are very valuable indeed.

while insurance may be a business for us, being part of millions of lives every day for the

213BRIEF HISTORY OF INSURANCE

#he story of insurance is probably as old as the story of mankind. #he same instinct that

prompts modern businessmen today to secure themselves against loss and disaster existed

in primitive men also. #hey too sought to avert the evil conse+uences of fire and flood

and loss of life and were willing to make some sort of sacrifice in order to achieve

security. #hough the concept of insurance is largely a development of the recent past,

particularly after the industrial era C past few centuries C yet its beginnings date back

almost ?999 years.

Life Insurance in its modern form came to India from )ngland in the year 0101. (riental

Life Insurance 2ompany started by )uropeans in 2alcutta was the first life insurance

company on Indian *oil. !ll the insurance companies established during that period were

brought up with the purpose of looking after the needs of )uropean community and

Indian natives were not being insured by these companies. /owever, later with the efforts

of eminent people like "abu 7uttylal *eal, the foreign life insurance companies started

insuring Indian lives. "ut Indian lives were being treated as sub-standard lives and heavy

extra premiums were being charged on them. "ombay 7utual Life !ssurance *ociety

heralded the birth of first Indian life insurance company in the year 0189, and covered

Indian lives at normal rates. *tarting as Indian enterprise with highly patriotic motives,

insurance companies came into existence to carry the message of insurance and social

security through insurance to various sectors of society. "harat Insurance 2ompany

:016?; was also one of such companies inspired by nationalism. #he *wadeshi movement

of 069>-0698 gave rise to more insurance companies. #he Bnited India in 7adras,

Aational Indian and Aational Insurance in 2alcutta and the 2o-operative !ssurance at

Lahore were established in 069?. In 0698, /industan 2o-operative Insurance 2ompany

took its birth in one of the rooms of the =orasanko, house of the great poet abindranath

#agore, in 2alcutta. #he Indian 7ercantile,


7/71

06th of =anuary, 06>?, that life insurance in India was nationali@ed. !bout 0>4 Indian

insurance companies, 0? non-Indian companies and 8> provident were operating in India

at the time of nationali@ation. Aationali@ation was accomplished in two stagesE initially

the management of the companies was taken over by means of an (rdinance, and later,

the ownership too by means of a comprehensive bill. #he Parliament of India passed the

Life Insurance 2orporation !ct on the 06th of =une 06>?, and the Life Insurance

2orporation of India was created on 0st *eptember, 06>?, with the ob&ective of spreading

life insurance much more widely and in particular to the rural areas with a view to reach

all insurable persons in the country, providing them ade+uate financial cover at a

reasonable cost.

LI2 had > @onal offices, 33 divisional offices and 505 branch offices, apart from itscorporate office in the year 06>?. *ince life insurance contracts are long term contracts

and during the currency of the policy it re+uires a variety of services need was felt in the

later years to expand the operations and place a branch office at each district head+uarter.

re-organi@ation of LI2 took place and large numbers of new branch offices were opened.

!s a result of re-organisation servicing functions were transferred to the branches, and

branches were made accounting units. It worked wonders with the performance of the

corporation. It may be seen that from about 599.99 crores of Aew "usiness in 06>8 the

corporation crossed 0999.99 crores only in the year 06?6-89, and it took another 09 years

for LI2 to cross 5999.99 crore mark of new business. "ut with re-organisation happening

in the early eighties, by 061>-1? LI2 had already crossed 8999.99 crore *um !ssured on

new policies.

#oday LI2 functions with 5941 fully computeri@ed branch offices, 099 divisional offices,

8 @onal offices and the 2orporate office. LI2%s ide !rea Aetwork covers 099 divisional

offices and connects all the branches through a 7etro !rea Aetwork. LI2 has tied up

with some "anks and *ervice providers to offer on-line premium collection facility in

selected cities. LI2%s )2* and !#7 premium payment facility is an addition to customer

convenience. !part from on-line Fiosks and IG*, Info 2entres have been

commissioned at 7umbai, !hmedabad, "angalore, 2hennai, /yderabad, Folkata, Aew

elhi, Pune and many other cities. ith a vision of providing easy access to its

policyholders, LI2 has launched its *!#)LLI#) *!7P!F offices. #he satellite

offices are smaller, leaner and closer to the customer. #he digitali@ed records of the

satellite offices will facilitate anywhere servicing and many other conveniences in the

future.

LI2 continues to be the dominant life insurer even in the liberali@ed scenario of Indian

insurance and is moving fast on a new growth tra&ectory surpassing its own past records.

LI2 has issued over one crore policies during the current year. It has crossed the

milestone of issuing 0,90,35,6>> new policies by 0>th (ct, 599>, posting a healthy

growth rate of 0?.?8H over the corresponding period of the previous year.

Drom then to now, LI2 has crossed many milestones and has set unprecedented

performance records in various aspects of life insurance business. #he same motives

which inspired our forefathers to bring insurance into existence in this country inspire us

at LI2 to take this message of protection to light the lamps of security in as many homes

as possible and to help the people in providing security to their families.

management, asset allocation is very important because returns and risk factor is

depending on it. *o, I recommend that

0. #imely review of asset allocation.

5. 7ake changes according to the movement of markets.

3. #ry to reduce the Premium !llocation charges. #hat will lead to more

investment in the market and more returns.

4. iversify the funds to reduce risk factor.

2ompany should emphasis on insurance plan advertisement, because at present

company main focus on conventional product advertisement.

2ompany also segment for small income people. "ecause company mainly plan

for middle and high income people group. If company enters in this segment then

company can capture a large part of rural market.

2ompany should also change the commission structure of D.2., because in initial

year commission is very high as compare to remaining year. *o D.2. does not

focus on remaining year and many policies lapsed.

7ore and more advisor need to made so that the market can be covered at large.

uring my survey I contact to people like doctors lawyers ,bank manager, and

high profile people. but according to my observation these people are not suitable

because they are not interested in such kind of work. #herefore people doing

clerical &obs, graduates unemployed people, who are in low income group should

be taken into consideration.
