FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF
INSURANCE
Some useful terms in Insurance:
A) INDEMNITY
A contract of insurance contained in a fire, marine,
burglary or any other policy excepting life assurance and
personal accident and sickness insurance) is a contract of
indemnity. This means that the insured, in case of loss
against which the policy has been issued, shall be paid the
actual amount of loss not exceeding the amount of the
policy, i.e. he shall be fully indemnified. The object of
every contract of insurance is to place the insured in the
same financial position, as nearly as possible, after the loss,
as if his loss had not taken place at all. It would be against
public policy to allow an insured to make a profit out of his
loss or damage.

A) Early Deaths
The mortality rate is experiencing a declining trend in
many parts of the world. However it is also important to
note that the age at which People die is also ever
decreasing. Some reasons for this include unhealthy living
style, stress, pollution, and some natural calamities. This
necessitates people to make adequate measures to yield
income for their family and dependents. This could be a
serious concern if the insured happens to be the sole
breadwinner. Some individuals see this as an option to plan
their retirement.
