PEFACE
A students life is nothing but a continuous struggle to gain depth and expertise in his
field of study. It is a plunge into the vast ocean of hidden treasures, which are revealed by
turning the pages of books. This process is further supported by practical exposure in the

grooming the best executives of the future and exposes them to the real processes in the field.
Therefore the department has organized a comprehensive training program to carve a gem

WHAT IS INSURANCE?
A promise of compensation of specific future losses in exchange for a periodic
payment. Insurance is designed to protect the financial well-being of an individual, company
or other entity in the case of upexpected loss. Some forms of insurance are required by law,
while other are optional. Agreeing to the terms of an insurance policy creates contract
between the insured and the insurer. In exchange for payments from the insured (called
premiums), the insurer agrees to pay the policy holder a sum of money upon the occurrence
of a specific event. In most cases, the policy holder pays part of the loss (called the
deductible) and the insurer pays the rest.
Insurance people are no longer in the business of forming fire bridges to put out fires
at members homes, as they did centuries ago. But the idea of combining resources to protect
against loss is still basic to the insurance business.
Insurance companies are new financial institutions. They sell insurance policies to
protect people against financial hardship caused by accidental losses.
The insurance
15
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
The insurance company pools these premiums to form a fund from which those
insured who suffer lossess unfortunate victims of fire, vehicle accidents, earthquakes, and
so on can be reimbursed. Each insured pays a relatively small amount (the premium) into the
pool. These relatively small premiums, added together, develop a sizeable fund from which
payments are made to compensate the insured who have losses. In this way, for responsible
cost, each insured can be sure that a loss will not cause undue financial hardship.

TYPES OF INSURANCE
Different Insurance Companies offer many types of insurance policies according to
the market demand and according to the compays financial situation as well. So here some
of the most known insurance policies are discussed as follows: Non Life or General Insurance
Life Insurance
GENERAL INSURANCE
Non-Life insurance is also called property and casualty insurance, property and
liability insurance or general insurance. In purchasing non life insurance, the customer is
buying financial protection against a specific insurable event, such as industrial injury.
Policies are typically short term (one year) indemnity (i.e. the customer will be compensated
in an agreed manner) contracts. Normally, there is no investment element or expectation of
financial return.
Non life insurance is further classified along personal and commercial lines.
Fire insurance
Marine insurance
Automobile insurance
Miscellaneous insurance
18
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
PRINCIPALS OF INSURANCE
Insurance based on the following principles:
A positive duty voluntarily to disclose, accurately and fully, all facts material to the
risk being proposed, whether requested or not.
Ordinary contracts are subject to the doctrine of Caveat emptor (let the buyer
beware) but insurance policies are subject to Uberrima fields (Utmost good faith),
which requires both the parties, insured and insurers to exercise utmost good faith and
make full and complete disclosure of all material facts.
Important feature of insurance contact in that all material facts concerning subject
matter of insurance are known by only one of the parties that is proper. The duty of
full disclosure mainly rests on the proposer. They may be a few instances of breach
of duty of full disclosure by insurers, such as:
o Accepting an insurance which they know is not enforceable at law or which
they are not registered to underwrite.
o Making untrue statements during the negotiation with the prosposer
MATERIAL FACT:
Every circumstances is material which would influence the judgement of a prudant
insurer in fixing the premium or determining whether, he will take the risk.
FACT, WHICH MUST BE DISCLOSED:
Facts which show that the particular risk represent a greater exposure than would be
expected from its nature or class.
External facts which make the risk greater than normally expected.
19
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
INSURABLE INTEREST
The legal right to insure arising out of a financial relationship recongnized at law
between the insured and the subject matter of insurance.
Relationship between the insured and subject matter of insurance must be recognized
at law.
The insured must stand in are pationship with the subject matter of insurance whereby
he benefits from its safety, well being or freedom liability and prejudiced by its
damage or existence of liability.
For other insurances at the time of inception and at the time of loss
20
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
PROXIMATE CAUSE
Proximate cause means the active, efficient cause that sets in motion a chain of
events which bring a result, without intervention of any force started and working actively
from a new source.
If the insured seeks to claim from his insurer for a loss, he must show that the loss
was caused as a result of a peril covered by the policy. There must be a direct
relationship of cause and effect, of which the cause must be proximate in
efficiency though not necessary in point of time. This takes into account that a
particular effect may be the result of a chain of causes in which each cause is a
natural result of the preceding cause, but the chain of causation may be broken by
intervention of a new and independent cause.
It is the dominant cause, not necessarily, the first cause not the last cause. In case
there are several causes operating, the proximate one will be the dominant, more
forceful one operating to bring about the result.
One method of coming to a decision is to begin with the first event in the chain
and imagine what is logically likely to happen next. If the answer leads to the
second even and so on until final event, then the fist event is the proximate cause
of loss.
21
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
INDEMNITY
To place the insured in the same financial position after a loss as he enjoyed
immediately before the loss.
Doctrine of indemnity is of central importance to the operation of insurance.
Insurance policies are contracts of indemnity except life and Personal Accident
Insurances where it is not possible to measure loss of life, limb and permanent
disablement in terms of money.
There are at least four methods, the insurer may use to provide indemnity, when a
valid claim arise. The wording of the policy usually gives the insurer the right to
choose which method to adopt.
CASH PAYMENT:
This is the method adopted in most of the cases. A cheque for the amount of loss,
payable under the policy is issued to the insured.
REPAIRS:
Under this method insurer provides all the expenses regarding the repairs of the
insured subject or get the subject repaired from his authorized repairer.
REPLACEMENT:
Generally speaking replacement method does not appeal to insurers and seldom used
to provide indemnity.
22
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
REINSTATEMENT:
If refers to property insurance, where an insurer undertaking to restore or rebuild a
building or a piece of machinery damaged by peril insured. This option is rarely exercised
because of potential problem. Firstly, the insurer must restore the property substantially to
the same condition, failing which he will be liable in damages. Secondly, unless there is
express condition in the policy, the insurer cannot limit his expenditure to the sum insured.
He is bound once he has elected to reinstate, to do so irrespective of the cost.
23
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
SUBROGATION
It is the right of the insurer who has granted an indemnity to receive, after payment
of a loss, the advantage of every right of the insured, arising previously or in the future,
including rights in contract or in tort, which may diminish the insureds loss.
The doctrine of Subrogation has been adopted solely for the purpose of
preventing the insured from recovering more than a true indemnity, and it
does not arise from any of the terms of a policy of insurance.
Subrogation rights apply only where there is legal liability and do not apply in
respect of a gift of a charitable nature which is clearly expressed to benefit the
insured exclusively.
are thereby deprived of any subrogation rights to which they would otherwise
have been entitled.
Rights to subrogation may accrue to the insurers as a result of tort or of
contract or of the provisions of a stature.
o Tort:
24
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
CONTRIBUTION
Where the insured has more than one policy under which claim for a particular loss,
there is, in the absence of a specific condition, nothing to prevent him the sum insured under
the policy he chooses is adequate to cover his loss.
An insured may effect more than one policy to cover the same property or
interest, he can not recover in total more than a full indemnity.
The right contribution arises only when all the policies concerned:
o Cover the same peril,
o Cover the same subject matter and
o Are effected by or on behalf of the same insured.
Property and pecuniary insurances generally, but not invariably, contain an
express contribution condition.
25
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
The
government in 1948 established the Department of Insurance within the domain of Ministry
of Commerce to supervise the affairs of insurance industry and to safeguard the interests of
the insured. The Act was amended in 1958 for the fist time keeping in view the requirements
of domestic market and to have effective control over the insurance premium rates. Since
then, various amendments have been made in the Act.
The Department of Insurance further created the Controller of Insurance for the
supervising insurance business in the country.

The concept of auditing is closely related with the concept of accountability, it is a practice
by which some subject of interest is examined by independent and professionally qualified
persons and a report is presented. Auditing is generally considered to be associated with
accounting and financial records only but these days the scope of auditing has broadened and
it covers nearly all the areas of business activity like financial statements, management
efficiency, quality of systems, evaluation of performance and many others. In this book,
however, we shall deal only with the audit of financial statements.
International Auditing Guidelines used to define Audit as:
An audit is the independent examination of financial
statement or related information of an entity, whether
profit oriented or not and irrespective of its size, or legal
form when such an examination is conducted with a view
to express an opinion thereon.

PROFITABILITY RATIO
1. A sudden high increment in profit as compared to premium accumulation shows the
companys strength. It is because of low expenses ratio while having larger pool of premium
than previous years. But in coming two years respective decline indicate low premiums and
high taxes.
2. Second profitability ratio is correspondingly shows the same trend. In first proceeding
year it jumps to high figure but afterwards declines due to low investment amounts and
premium pool while incurring high expenses.

INTERPRETATION
There is a significant increase in the amount of premium in each class
of business which shows the best marketing practice and the good reputation of the
business. The increase in the net premium revenue is 62.08% which is a very
remarkable sign.
Increase in net claim is 0.60% which shows the best risk management
practices and the better under writing practices adopted by the company. Increase in
the percentage of claim is much lower than the premium rate increase which leads to
more profits.
71
DEPARTMENT OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCE
The amount of the current and other accounts is less than preceding
year. But current maturing deposits are more and therefore the return on them is
significantly high than previous year: which is a source for indirect income.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
I have undergone an internship program as a part of my study schedule. It was a six
week internship program. It was a great opportunity for me to work with such a prestigious
organization which will definitely aid me in developing professional skills and the right
attitude towards achieving my goals.
I worked for six weeks at New Jubilee Insurance Company Limited zonal office
Lahore, as in internee. I was placed in different departments of NJI Co. Ltd. And studied the
whole organization, but I got a chance to do some practical work in the Risk Management
Department, Underwriting Department, Claim Department and Accounts Department.
This helps me a lot in preparing the internship report and the analysis of the Company
and remarked about the company on the basis of my studies and analysis of the financial
statements and overall review of the company. Even though six weeks training is a very
short period to learn about any organization but I gain a lot of knowledge due to cooperative
staff. My working hours in New Jubilee Insurance Company Limited were, from 8: 00 am to
5:00 pm with one hour lunch break.
When I went to NJI Co. Ltd. at 28, June, 2010, the receptionist sent me to Admin
Manager, Mr. Zakir Ahmad who asked me some questions, then took me to Mr. Arif Bashir
(JEVP). I presented him the internship letter granted by the college. After asking some
questions he appointed Mr. Zakir Ahmad as my supervisor.
Mr. Zakir Ahmad gave me introduction about the companys business and told me its
main functions. In the mean while Mr. Zakir Ahmad assigned me a task to visit different
departments. I started visiting different departments from the very next day and met with all
employees and observed their working. Then I was allocated in the following departments.

provide me the preliminary information about the risk and methods to inspect a risk properly

is made according to the subject matter and type of loss exposure. Personally no any

trainers.

given in the Risk Management chapter show the clear picture the that.

more competitive edge. Improvement and advancement is crucial with every step and with

quite different.

difference. Today, the foreign companies and local companies in Pakistan are introducing
