- Identify and explain the basic principles of insurance
- List and describe various types of insurance policies
Key Vocabulary Words
Terms: Premium, Indemnity, Utmost Good Faith, Insurable Interest, Proximate Cause, Policy
Content: Meaning of Insurance
Insurance is a legal agreement (contract) where one party (the Insurer) agrees to compensate another party (the Insured) for a specific loss or damage in return for a small payment called a Premium.
Key Terms:
- Insurer: The company providing the cover
- Insured: The person or business buying the cover
- Policy: The written contract of insurance
- Premium: The money paid periodically to the insurance company
Basic Principles of Insurance
For an insurance contract to be valid, these principles must be followed:
- Indemnity: This means to restore the insured to the exact financial position they were in before the loss. You cannot profit from insurance.
- Insurable Interest: You can only insure something if you will suffer a financial loss if it is damaged (e.g., you can insure your own car, but not your neighbor’s).
- Utmost Good Faith (Uberrimae Fidei): Both parties must tell the absolute truth about all facts regarding the item being insured.
- Proximate Cause: A claim is only paid if the loss was caused by the specific event insured against.
- Subrogation: Once an insurer pays for a total loss, the remains of the damaged item belong to the insurance company.
Types of Insurance
A. Life Insurance:
- Whole Life: Pays a sum of money to the family when the insured person dies
- Endowment: Pays a sum of money after a specific number of years or upon death (whichever comes first)
B. Non-Life (General) Insurance:
- Fire Insurance: Covers loss due to fire outbreaks
- Marine Insurance: Covers ships and goods transported by sea
- Motor Vehicle Insurance: Covers accidents involving cars (Third Party or Comprehensive)
