|
Geetika Kulkarni answered |
The main products of life insurance are:
- Term insurance
- Endowment insurance
- Whole life insurance
- Money back policy
Explanation:
Life insurance is a contract between the policyholder and the insurance company, in which the policyholder pays regular premiums in exchange for a sum of money to be paid to the beneficiaries upon the insured's death. Life insurance policies can offer various benefits and coverage options to suit the needs of individuals.
1. Term insurance:
Term insurance is a type of life insurance that provides coverage for a specific term or period of time. If the insured person dies during the term of the policy, a death benefit is paid out to the beneficiaries. However, if the insured person survives the term, no benefit is paid out. Term insurance is usually more affordable compared to other types of life insurance.
2. Endowment insurance:
Endowment insurance is a type of life insurance that provides both a death benefit and a savings component. The policyholder pays regular premiums, and if the insured person dies during the term of the policy, the death benefit is paid out to the beneficiaries. However, if the insured person survives the term, a maturity benefit is paid out to the policyholder.
3. Whole life insurance:
Whole life insurance is a type of permanent life insurance that provides coverage for the entire lifetime of the insured person. It offers a death benefit to the beneficiaries upon the insured's death, as well as a cash value component that grows over time. The policyholder pays regular premiums, and the policy accumulates cash value that can be accessed during the insured's lifetime.
4. Money back policy:
Money back policy is a type of life insurance that provides periodic payouts to the policyholder during the term of the policy. The policyholder receives a percentage of the sum assured at regular intervals, typically every few years. If the insured person dies during the term, the full sum assured is paid out to the beneficiaries.
5. Personal accident insurance:
Personal accident insurance is not a main product of life insurance. It is a separate type of insurance that provides coverage in the event of accidental death or disability. Personal accident insurance policies typically offer financial compensation to the insured or their beneficiaries in case of accidental death, bodily injury, or permanent disability caused by an accident.
Therefore, option D, which is personal accident insurance, does not belong to the main products of life insurance.
- Term insurance
- Endowment insurance
- Whole life insurance
- Money back policy

If the insured person dies during the term, the full sum assured is paid out to the beneficiaries.
5. Personal accident insurance:
Personal accident insurance is not a main product of life insurance. It is a separate type of insurance that provides coverage in the event of accidental death or disability. Personal accident insurance policies typically offer financial compensation to the insured or their beneficiaries in case of accidental death, bodily injury, or permanent disability caused by an accident.
Therefore, option D, which is personal accident insurance, does not belong to the main products of life insurance.

Understanding Insurance Premiums
When it comes to insurance, the premium is the amount you pay for coverage. Different types of insurance have varying premium costs based on their coverage extent and risk factors.
Types of Insurance and Premiums
- Whole Life Insurance: This provides lifelong coverage and includes a cash value component, leading to higher premiums compared to term insurance.
- Broad Form Insurance: This type of insurance offers extensive coverage, often encompassing various risks. Because it covers multiple scenarios and provides greater protection, it typically requires the highest premiums among the options listed.
- Health Insurance: Premiums can vary widely based on coverage levels, age, and health status, but they generally fall below broad form insurance due to their specific nature.
- Term Insurance: This offers coverage for a specific period and is usually the least expensive option, as it does not accumulate cash value.
- Life Insurance: This is a more general term that can include both whole and term life insurance, with varying premiums based on the type.
Conclusion
Broad Form Insurance generally requires higher premiums due to its comprehensive coverage and the associated risks involved. This makes it more expensive than the other options listed, which either offer limited coverage or have specific duration terms. Understanding these distinctions helps individuals make informed decisions about their insurance needs.

- Bancassurance means selling insurance products through banks. Banks and insurance companies come up in a partnership wherein the bank sells the tied insurance company's insurance products to its clients.
- Bancassurance arrangement benefits both the firms. On the one hand, the bank earns fee amount (non-interest income) from the insurance company apart from the interest income whereas, on the other hand, the insurance firm increases its market reach and customers. The bank acts as an intermediary, helping the insurance firm reach its target customer in order to increase its market share.
- Bancassurance has emerged as a very important route for the distribution of insurance products and services. This partnership of Banking and the Insurance sector, if implemented in a well-planned and structured manner, can be beneficial for all the participants i.e., banks, insurers, and the customers.
- Types of Bancassurance products:
- Life insurance facilities:
- Term insurance plans (with accidental and death claims).
- Endowment plans
- ULIPs( Unit Linked Insurance Plans)
- Non-life Insurance facilities:
- Health insurance
- Marine insurance( for cargo shipments)
- Property insurance( against natural calamities)

- In 1938, with a view to protecting the interest of the Insurance public, the earlier legislation was consolidated and amended by the Insurance Act, 1938 with comprehensive provisions for effective control over the activities of insurers.
- The Insurance Amendment Act of 1950 abolished Principal Agencies. However, there were a large number of insurance companies and the level of competition was high. So the government of India decided to nationalize the life insurance business in India.
