CHAPTER: 1
INSURANCE
Human life is exposed to many risks, which may result in heavy financial losses.
Insurance is one of the devices by which risks may be reduced or eliminated in
exchange for premium. In words of Chief Justice Tindal, Insurance is a contract in
which a sum of money is paid by the assured in consideration of the insurer's
incurring the risk of paying larger sum upon a given contingency. In its legal
aspects it is a contract whereby one person agrees to indemnify another against a
loss which may happen or to pay a sum of money to him on the occurring of a
particular event. All contracts of insurance (except marine insurance) may be
verbal or in writing, but practically contracts of assurance are included in a
document.
DEFINITION
Risk-transfer mechanism that ensures full or partial financial compensation for
the loss or damage caused by event(s) beyond the control of the insured party.
Under an insurance contract, a party (the insurer) indemnifies the other party (the
insured) against a specified amount of loss, occurring from specified eventualities
within a specified period, provided a fee called premium is paid.
In general insurance, compensation is normally proportionate to the loss incurred,
whereas in life insurance usually a fixed sum is paid. Some types of insurance
(such as product liability insurance) are an essential component of risk
management, and are mandatory in several countries. Insurance,
however, provides protection only against tangible losses. It cannot ensure
continuity of business, market share, or customer confidence, and cannot
provide knowledge, skills, or resources to resume the operations after a disaster.

3. PRINCIPLE OF INDEMNITY
All types of contracts except life and personal accident insurance are contract of
indemnity. According to them, the insurer undertakes to indemnify the insured
against a loss of the subject matter of insurance due to insured cause. In life
assurance the question of loss and, therefore, of its indemnification does not rise.
Because the loss of life cannot be estimated in term of money. The principles of
indemnity are based on the idea that the assured in the case of loss only shall be
compensated against the actual total loss. But if no event happens, the insured has
not to receive any amount, so in this case the premiums paid by him become the
profit of the Insurance.
4. DOCTRINE OF SUBROGATION
This principle applies to the contract of indemnity only i.e. marine and fire. It lays
down a principle which is quite equitable. According to this doctrine, where a loss
occurs and the insurer pays as for a total loss, he is entitled to all the rights and
remedies which the insured has against a third party in respect of loss so paid for. It
prevents the insured being indemnified from two sources in respect of the same
loss. Suppose A has damaged B is motor car negligently. If he pays B is loss in
full. B cannot collect the same from the insurance company. On the other hand if B
applied to his insurance company for indemnity under his policy, he will not be
permitted to collect the damages from A. In the latter case the insurance company
will be entitled to collect that amount.
5. DOCTRINE OF PROXIMATE CAUSE
This principle is found very useful when the loss occurred due to series of events.
It means that in deciding whether the loss has arisen through any of the risks
insured against, the proximate or the nearest cause should be considered. To take
an illustration in one case where a policy holder sustains an accident while hunting.
He was unable to walk after the accident and as a result of lying on wet ground
before being picked up, he suffered pneumonia. There was an unbroken change of
cause between the accident and the death, and the proximate cause of the death,
therefore, was the accident and not the pneumonia.
6. CANCELLATION
Both parties have right to cancel the policy before its expiry date. The period of
.the policy comes to an end on the cancellation of policy. So the protection
provided by the insurer to the insured stops from the date of such cancellation. The
premium received by the insurance company is also returnable to the insured.
7. ATTACHMENT OF RISK
Without the attachment of definite risk to the policy, the contract of insurance
cannot be in force. So in this case the consideration fails and the premium received
by the insurance company must be returned.
8. MITIGATION OF LOSS
When the event insured against takes place, the policy holder must do every thing
to minimize the loss and to save what is left. This principle makes the insured more
careful in respect of this insured property.
9. ARBITRATION
Most fire and accident insurance policies contain an arbitration clause which
provides for referring to differences to an arbitration. The arbitrator is to be
appointed in writing by the parties in difference. The object of this clause is to
reduce litigation.
CHAPTER: 3
For the longer term, life insurance can help pay for their kids college education or
help ensure their spouse or partners retirement dreams are realized.
3. Help with household needs:
If womens are a parent, think of all the work they do on a daily basis. The endless
scope of activities combined for many with a busy career can be stressful, and
leave little time for ourselves. They are after all the CEO of anyones family:
determining how finances are utilized, being a classroom parent, finding day care,
or helping on that science project.
However many hats wear, the work they do is they invaluable toothier family. Life
insurance can help pay for the vital household services that they provide, such as
childcare, transportation and household chores.
4. Provide benefits they can use during their lifetime:
If they choose whole life insurance, the cash value in their policy the living
benefits can be borrowed against to help pay for lifes events such as buying a
home, paying for a wedding, or getting that Masters Degree youve been wanting
to earn. As they can pay the premiums of their whole life policy, the cash value
builds and they can access those funds via policy loans. Some important things to
keep in mind: loans accrue interest and decrease the death benefit and cash value.

5).Family caregiver
Many women find themselves providing care for both children and elderly family
members. Caring for an aging parent or family member can include paying for the
costs of adult day care, uninsured medical expenses, and extra transportation.
Adding these expenses to the costs of maintaining a household, child care, and
college tuition can be financially overwhelming. Unfortunately, these added
financial responsibilities often continue after their r death. Life insurance provides
a source of funds that can be used to help pay for these expenses.
6).Business owner
She may be one of the increasing numbers of women business owners. If she die
while owning her business, life insurance can be used to provide cash for company
expenses such as payroll or operating costs while her estate is being settled. Also,
life insurance can be a useful tool for business owners structuring buy-sell
arrangements or providing benefits to key employees.
4 REASONS WHY WOMEN NEED TERM LIFE INSURANCE
49% of women are now in the workforce. Yet, 43% of these working women have
no life insurance. This means that a very large percentage of families are dependent
on the female income, yet that income isnt insured. A good portion of married
couples are dual-income providers and both incomes should be properly insured
for worst-case scenarios. It is even more essential for single moms to have solid
coverage to protect their family. Stay-at-home moms are not left out of this, as they
provide high value in the service and care they perform for their family. Women
need to be insured plain and simple.
4. Dual Income Dependence:
According to the Population Reference Bureau, in 2002 only 7% of American
households consisted of married couples with children in which only the husband
worked. That number has declined even further in the financial turmoil of recent
years. Families are dependent on both parents incomes and, in turn, both those
incomes should be adequately insured to provide family security.
12
2. Single Moms:
The US Census Bureau found that 79% of custodial single mothers are gainfully
employed. 50% work full time. Despite other sources of income, such as alimony
or child support, the income of a single mom is critical to the family she supports.
Many single moms are raising their children with little or no help from the outside.
What would happen if she was no longer able to provide?
3. Stay-at-Home Moms:
For the family that has Mom at home, sacrifices are usually made to make that
happen. The service and care she provides ads up quickly in value when tallied.
That value balances out the income not gained by her not being in the work force.
This means stay-at-home moms have tremendous importance in value that requires
being insured. If something were to happen, her spouse would be required to add
the cost of those services to his solo family income. Thats a recipe for disaster.
4. Women Have Arrived:
Just think, roughly 100 years ago women werent even allowed to purchase
insurance. The value of what women did wasnt considered worth insuring.
Obviously our nation has changed dramatically, and thats a ridiculous thing to
consider now. All women provide financial value to their family, and insurance
provides the safety net if she can no longer provide for whatever reason.

to raise the amount of coverage, shell need to go through the insurability process
again, probably including a new medical exam, and her premiums will increase.
Variable life insurance
Variable life insurance is a type of cash value coverage that allows her to choose
how her cash value account is invested. A variable life policy generally contains
several investment options, or unaccounted, that are professionally managed
to pursue a stated investment objective. Choices can range from a fixed interest
unaccounted to an international growth unaccounted. Variable life insurance
policies require a fixed annual premium for the life of the policy and may provide a
minimum guaranteed death benefit. If the cash value exceeds ascertain amount, the
death benefit will increase.
Variable universal life insurance
Variable universal life combines all of the options and flexibility of universal life
with the investment choices of a variable policy. She can decide how often and
how much her premium payments are to be, within policy guidelines. With most
variable universal life policies, she get no guaranteed minimum cash value or
death benefit, but she can direct how your premium payments are invested among
policy unaccounted.
Joint and survivor life insurance
She and her spouse may choose to buy a single policy of permanent insurance that
covers both of their lives. With first-to-die, the death benefit is paid at the death of
the spouse who dies first. With second-to-die, no death benefit is paid until
both spouses are deceased. Second-to-die policies are commonly used in estate
planning to pay estate taxes and other expenses due at the death of the
second spouse. Other than the fact that two people are insured by one policy, the
policy characteristics remain the same.
Bottom line
Life insurance protection for women is equally as important as it is for men.
However, womens life insurance coverage is often inadequate. It may be time to
15
consult an insurance professional who can help her to assess her life insurance
needs, and offer information about the various types of policies available.

sure women have life cover is essential, because if women were to die
unexpectedly or are taken seriously ill, women income the main source of
income would cease. This would cause significant problems for women loved
ones, who would potentially find themselves out of the family home if they could
no longer afford to meet the mortgage payments.
Despite this, many women still fail to get life cover to protect their family, in some
cases it is because they are staying at home to care for their family and dont see
their role at home as having any monetary value. But what many stay-at-home
mums forget is that the role they have is worth a lot of money, even if they are not
specifically getting paid for doing the work.
It could impact on the household finances further as the main breadwinner could
find themselves taking time off work to look after the children, which means that
not only would women family lose the value of the work of one parent, the second
parent may also see their income reduced as they need to reduce the hours they are
working.

The measures can take as a woman are the same as those taken
by a man. Changing some of the risk factors that insurers base
their premium calculations on will help to cut costs.
For example, if women are obese and women lose weight, women
premiums should fall. Similarly if women drink less alcohol, or
stop smoking and lead a healthier lifestyle, these will all be looked
favorably on by women insurer. Alcohol consumption, weight and
smoking all increase the amount women pay, so changing any or
all of these will cut costs.

INSURANCE POLICIES DESIGNED FOR WOMEN
39
40
Many insurance products meant for women went off the shelves after the new
guidelines for endowment plans came in. Still, there are some policies that offer
benefits specifically aimed at women. While some of these benefits seem
attractive, buyers need to evaluate them before taking a final call. It's their utility
value, not the 'exclusively for women' label that should be the deciding factor.
41
the costs involved. Only 10% of the total women workforce has some kind of
health cover
The Wellsurance Woman policy is a combo of hospitalization benefit and critical
illness cover. It pays a lump sum in case the policyholder is diagnosed with any of
11 specified critical illnesses, including cancer, heart attack, and stroke and kidney
failure. It also pays out a daily cash benefit in case of hospitalization. But such a
policy should be taken only as an addition to the basic health plan that covers
hospitalization.
BAJAJ ALLIANZ'S CRITICAL ILLNESS COVERS:
The policy covers eight women-specific critical illnesses, including paralysis and
cancers (breast, ovarian, cervical, uterine, and vaginal and fallopian tube). "The
treatment protocol for such illnesses is not only lengthy but also expensive and
involves a lot of lifestyle modifications, such as giving up of job, ergonomic
modifications at home, and so on. Hence, the need for a product specifically
targeting this segment.
SPECIAL BENEFITS
1. Enhanced Allocation Rate of 102.5% per annum from 11th policy year
2. Waiver of charges on withdrawal/Switch during motherhood. 12 partial
withdrawals or switches will be waived, within one year from date of childbirth.
