INSURANCE COMPANIES
The performance of the insurance sector in financial year 2008-09 waslargely influenced by the sub-prime crisis. The sub-prime crisis started in theUnited States in late 2007, evolved as a financial crisis in US and laterengulfed Europe and UK. By late 2008 it seeped into Asia. As a result, thefinancial crisis deepened among many countries of the world, thus forcing
the respective governments to take necessary steps to come out of thecrisis. Besides increased unemployment in various countries, economicgrowth was also hampered and the IMF and World Bank lowered the worldeconomic contraction for 2008-09 to 1.1 per cent lower than what wasprojected earlier.Fall of financial institutions and lack of confidence in thebanking system impacted the financial markets. Money and capital marketstumbled down to their lowest levels across the world. As a result, manyinvestors lost their wealth. Internationally, except for a few large companies,insurance companies were fairly insulated, though for the first time since1980, insurance premiums declined in real terms with non-life premiumsfalling by 0.8 per cent and life premiums falling at a much higher rate of 3.5
per cent. Further, because of higher volatility in the financial markets,insurance companies, lost heavily on investment income. As such, theprofitability of the insurance companies deteriorated in 2008 not only due tolow investment yields but also because of high cost of guarantees and lowerrevenues from management fees.
As a consequence of the impairment of the value of their investmentsboth banks and insurance companies were forced to recapitalize to meetregulatory requirements. This has thrown a big challenge, as investors lostsubstantial wealth and were reluctant and unable to make furtherinvestments and there was scarcity of capital. The governments across the
world have started infusing capital into the financial system so as to bringback stability into the system. Though well insulated, India, could not totallyescape the tide of the financial crisis. Due to its higher levels of incomegrowth during the past five years as also because of prudent financialmanagement underpinned by sound and solid banking system supportingthe payment and settlement procedures, India had limited the contagioneffect. However, the stock values declined sharply effecting capitalavailability. India also had to loose some of its policies and adopted both
8/9/2019 Performance of Insuarnce Companies

conventional and unconventional methods to contain the contagion effect.The Indian economy which had grown at an average of 8.8 pe cent before2008-09 could grow only at 6.7 per cent.
While the first half of 2009-10 has seen a substantia mitigation of thefinancial effects of the crisis an markets and covering, the crisis has raisedserious concerns compelling Governments and Regulators to considervarious steps necessary to strengthen the financial system in the long term.This is an evolving exercise under the leadership of the G-20. The principalelements of the strategy recommended by the G-20 are to make morerobust the Capital Adequacy and Solvency norms specified for various typesof financial enterprises, more comprehensive regulatory oversight, increasedsurveillance of large and systemically critical financial entities and greatersharing of information across countries.
Insurance in India has been viewed as a tax saving instrument and riskcover in life insurance was purely incidental. The mindset continues to be thesame, although the unit-linked instruments are becoming popular. Theemergence of pure risk products has thus taken a back seat. Lapsation is aserious issue. Life insurers are striving to design imaginative products so asto ensure long term commitments from the policyholders. In the processthere is a need for the distributors to play a key role in identifying the needsof the prospect and then sell insurance so that long-term retention ofcustomers is established. In India, most of the healthcare spending is by wayof out-of-pocket expenses and in this background the sudden surge of health
insurance with a 60 per cent growth is phenomenal. Besides, healthinsurance portfolio is itself new to the Indian domain and thus the growth isadditionally significant. A part of this growth is certainly on account of theincrease in the awareness levels of the people. Nevertheless, it is not thateverything is hunky dory and fine with the class. Customer grievancescontinue to haunt the health insurers. Issues relating to providing healthinsurance to senior citizens, and at affordable premiums are an area that hasbeen in the limelight. With better clarity on pre-existing diseases andpremium rates, it is hoped that a lot of controversies associated with thisclass could be nullified. It is also important, that policyholders should realizethe importance and the basic principles of insurance, before getting into any
claim-related disputes.

sector.While the committee submitted its report in 1994, it took another sixyears before the enabling legislation was passed in the year 2000, legislationamending the Insurance Actof 1938 and legislating the InsuranceRegulatory and Development Authority Actof 2000.

Some Facts about Indian Life Insurance Sector
Before trying to get an idea about the performance of Indian Life Insurance
8/9/2019 Performance of Insuarnce Companies
10/31
Sector in 2008-09, it will be better to take a look at some of its previous
records that played a major role in the performance of this sector. With the
passing of the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority Act, the
government of India made room for the private players in the sector, which
in turn, resulted in impressive growth rates. Until that time, the Life
Insurance Corporation of India was the only entity to represent the Indian life
insurance industry.With passing time, the de-tariffing measures as well asthe commission limits added to the scenario of competition and introduction
of innumerable products. Between the periods 2000-01 and 2007-08, the life
insurance market of India grew at the rate of 26% in terms of Compounded
Annual Growth Rate (CAGR).Performance of Indian Life Insurance Sector in 2008-09
Reckoned among the fastest growing industries, the Life Insurance Industry
of India has 23 license-holders running their business in this sector. The Life
Insurance Corporation of India (LIC), which is the only player in the public
sector, contributes over 70% to the business. The remaining area is covered
by the 22 private sector companies.
While considering the performance of the insurance industry in the fiscal
year 2008-09, it will be seen that the life insurance sector of India registered
a growth rate of 10.15% in the area of overall premium collection to Rs
221791.26 crore. In 2007-08, the industry had accounted for 29.0% growth
posting Rs.201351.41 crore. There was a marginal rise as per new policy
sales are concerned. It witnessed a nominal growth of 0.1% to 5.09 crore in
the year 2008-09 as against 10.23% in previous financial year.
In the period ranging from April-December 2009, the total new premium
income soared to Rs 67557.61 crore posting a growth of 29.2%. In the same
period of the previous year, the premium collection stood at Rs 52298.86
crore.
On looking at the performance of the life insurance sector in April-December
2009, it was found that the new premium income was considerably more
than the 15% growth suggested by the Life Insurance Council for the period
2009-10.

Performance of noted Indian Life Insurance Companies in 2008-09
Some of the life insurance companies in India that reported positive growth
in the financial year 2008-09 are LIC, Met Life, Kotak Mahindra and Shriram.

reporting profits for 3 years in a row, faced a loss of Rs 26.31 crore in 2008-
09. ICICI Prudential also incurred a record loss of Rs 779.70 crore.
Some Bleak Facts about Indian Life Insurance Sector in 2008-09While considering the performance of Indian Life Insurance Sector in 2008-
09, we cannot ignore some downward trends the industry had undergone.
The private players in this sector witnessed a loss of Rs 4,879 crore. In order
to tackle the losses, the life insurance company giants had to infuse Rs 5,956
crore. According to Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA),
the industry suffered on account of decline in demands and poor interest
rates in addition to other factors.
Registered Insurers in India
By end March 2009, there were forty-four insurance companies operating inIndia; of which twenty-two were in the life insurance business and theremaining twenty-one were in general insurance business and one nationalre-insurer. Of these forty-four companies, 8 are in the public sector (two

PRESENT SCENARIO - LIFE INSURANCE
INDUSTRY IN INDIA
The life insurance industry in India grew by an impressive 47.38%, withpremium income at Rs. 1560.41 billion during the fiscal year 2006-2007.
Though the total volume of LIC's business increased in the last fiscal year
(2006-2007) compared to the previous one, its market share came down
from 85.75% to 81.91%.
The 17 private insurers increased their market share from about 15% to
about 19% in a year's time. The figures for the first two months of the fiscal
year 2007-08 also speak of the growing share of the private insurers. The
share of LIC for this period has further come down to 75 percent, while the
private players have grabbed over 24 percent.
With the opening up of the insurance industry in India many foreign players
have entered the market. The restriction on these companies is that they are
not allowed to have more than a 26% stake in a companys ownership.
Since the opening up of the insurance sector in 1999, foreign investments of
Rs. 8.7 billion have poured into the Indian market and 19 private life
insurance companies have been granted licenses.
Innovative products, smart marketing, and aggressive distribution have
enabled fledgling private insurance companies to sign up Indian customers
faster than anyone expected. Indians, who had always seen life insurance as
a tax saving device, are now suddenly turning to the private sector and
snapping up the new innovative products on offer. Some of these productsinclude investment plans with insurance and good returns (unit linked plans)
multi purpose insurance plans, pension plans, child plans and money back
plans.(www.wikipedia.com)

Growth of Insurance Companies.
Owing to the global economic slowdown, the outlook is grim for
the global insurance sector and it is likely to witness moderation
in growth. Likewise, the growth in unit-linked life insurance plans
is likely to get affected by the crash in stock markets across the
globe and fall in income levels. The slowdown in economic activity
will reduce the premium growth in non-life business. While the
premium in industrialised economies is expected to decline, the
premium in emerging economies may witness moderation.
Structure of the Indian insurance industry
As on March 31, 2008, the Indian insurance industry consisted of21 life insurance companies, 21 general insurance companiesand one reinsurance company. Among these companies thepublic sector owned one life insurance, six general insurance andone reinsurance company However, the public sector companiesaccounted for approximately 73% of the total insurancepremium.
8/9/2019 Performance of Insuarnce Companies
18/31
During the CY07, insurance penetration in the life insurance segment wasapproximately 4% as against 4.1% in CY06. Non-life insurance penetrationremained unchanged at 0.6% in CY07. During the same period, lifeinsurance density improved to US$ 40.4 in CY07 from US$ 33.2 in previous
year. Similarly for non life insurance business density improved from US$5.2 to US$ 6.2 in CY07.
When the insurance sector was opened up for private insurance companiesin 1999 many players opted for JVs with foreign players who wererecognised across the globe. Over the last 8 years, consumer awarenessabout insurance improved considerably. Moreover, increased competitionpushed up product innovation and stepped up customer servicing options inthe sector. All these positive developments made a good impact on theeconomy and generated income and employment within the sector.
Private companies making rapid inroads in the life insuranceindustry
In April 2000 the IRDA Act was enacted and up to 26% FDI was allowed inthe sector through the automatic route, which opened the insurance marketto the private sector with limited exposure to foreign equity; as a result, thenetwork of private companies increased significantly.
Substantial extension in reach of private life insurers
Private life insurance companies are investing heavily to increase theirreach in the untapped markets and to increase their market share in theoverall growing pie. This is evident by the extent of their office and branchexpansions. During FY08, there was a significant increase in the number ofoffices held by life insurers. As on March 31, 2008, the number of officeswas 8,913 as compared with 5,373 in the previous year. A major portion ofthis expansion occurred in the private sector, where the number of offices
8/9/2019 Performance of Insuarnce Companies
19/31
more than doubled from 3,072 to 6,391. In the meanwhile, the number ofoffices held by LIC increased at a modest 10% to 2,522 offices.
Life insurance still scores amid financial slowdown
The insurance industry largely depends on the life insurance segment,sharing of 91% in the total net premium of the industry. During FY08financial markets across the globe witnessed a sharp setback in their
operations, which also affected the Indian economy, however, at a lesssevere note. Favourable investment opportunities helped the insuranceindustry to post significant growth in the first year premium and renewalpremium. During FY08, the life insurance industry reported yearly growth ofabout 23.8% and 28.9% in the first year and renewal premium, respectively;however, this growth was far lower than the previous years respectivegrowth rates of 95% and 47%. Among the life insurance companies, there isonly one public sector company viz. LIC, which accounts for about 74% ofthe total net premium earned.
LIC faces stiff competition from the private playersEven though the LIC enjoys a monopolistic market position, privatecompanies are rapidly making inroads in the industry by increasing theirshare in the total premium. Moreover, the number of policies issued byprivate companies has been increasing significantly over the past few years.Considering the pace of newcomers in capturing the market share from
8/9/2019 Performance of Insuarnce Companies
20/31
existing players in terms of premium and number of policies issued, LICfaces significant competition from the private companies in near future.
Among all the companies, private companies posted a significant yearlygrowth during each of the three previous years. LIC, on the other handreported low growth of about 6.7% in the first year premium during FY08mainly due to negative growth of 1.6% in new policies.
8/9/2019 Performance of Insuarnce Companies
21/31
The strategy of high investment and increase in number of players has led to the highgrowth in the private sector. The greater marketing and advertising push by private playersled to a steady growth in the number of new policies issued over the last three years. Alsohigher product innovation, like ULIPs and greater emphasis on customer education has alsopaid well for the private players.
Private companies reap the benefits of synergy in distribution
Channel wise analysis of new business premium revealed than public sectorlife insurer viz. LIC has stick to their traditional channel of doing thebusiness, through individual agents. During FY08, the individual agents ofLIC contributes approximately 98% of their total new individual policiesissued and premium earned, whereas in case of private players, individualagents share about 60% of total new individual policies issued and premiumearned. However, corporate agents played a major role in the insurancepenetration for the private players, sharing approximately 27% and 30% oftheir new business policies and premium respectively. On the contrary it is
seen that LIC has very few tie-ups with the corporates. Apart from above,private players are also indulge in the direct selling, which mobiliseapproximately 12% of new policies issued.
During FY08, LIC reported negative growth of 1.6% in total individualnew policies whereas private companies reported significant yearlygrowth of about 67.4%. Corporate agents and brokers were the majorcontributors to the growth for private companies, new policies issuedthrough this channel, grew by more than 100% on y-o-y basis.Moreover, aggressive direct selling has mobilised huge business for
8/9/2019 Performance of Insuarnce Companies
22/31
private companies, which reported stupendous growth of more than10 times in the new policies issued. Being solely depended on theindividual agents for the business, LIC faces stiff competition from theprivate players, given the fact that private players are well positionedto use the synergic benefit of reaching the mass through corporate
agents (including banks) and brokers. Moreover, poor agentawareness about innovative products, high agent turnover in theindustry and huge training cost may affect the business of the LIC.
