@%nsurance’ is basically a sharing device. The losses to assets resulting rom natural calamities
like ire8 lood8 earth#uake8 accidents8 etc. are met out o the common pool contributed by
large number o persons who are exposed to similar risks. This contribution o many is used
to pay the losses suered by unortunate ew. 5owever the basic principle is that loss should
occur as a result o natural calamities or unexpected events which are beyond the human
control. econdly insured person should not make any gains out o insurance.
%t is natural to think o insurance o physical assets such as motor car insurance or ire
insurance but oten we orget that creator o all these assets is the human being whose eorts
have gone a long way in building up the assets. %n that sense8 human lie is a uni#ue income
generating assets.

The contribution to be paid by each o the '::: persons will come to !s. (:: per year. Thus8
all the '::: persons share loss caused to the + unortunate amilies. 1 persons who
survived till one year have not lost anything as they secured peace o mind and a eeling o
security o their amily. 3hile insurance cannot prevent accidents or premature death8 it can
help protect the amily o the decreased against the loss o income caused by the death o the
main breadwinner. %n return or speciied payments8 insurance will provide protection against
the incidence o an uncertain event- such as premature death. The business o insurance
company called insurer is to bring together persons who are exposed to similar risks8 collect
contribution premiumC rom them on some e#uitable basis and pay the losses claimsC to the
unortunate ew who suer.

%nsurance business can be divided into two broad categories8 lie and non-lie. ,ie insurance
is concerned with making provision or a speciic event happing to the individual8 such as

1.!. ROLE OF LIFE INSURANCE
Life Insurance As An Investment: -
%nsurance is an attractive option or investment. 3hile most people recogni$e the risk
hedging and tax saving potential o insurance8 many are not aware o its advantages as an
investment option as well. %nsurance products yield more compared to regular investment
options8 and this is besides the added incentives oered by insurers.
9ou cannot compare an insurance product with other investment schemes or the simple
reason that it oers inancial protection rom risks8 something that is missing in non-
insurance products. %n act8 the premium you pay or an insurance policy is an investment
against risk. Thus8 beore comparing with other schemes8 you must accept that a part o the
total amount invested in lie insurance goes towards providing or the risk cover8 while the
rest is used or savings.
%n lie insurance8 unlike non-lie products8 you get maturity beneits on survival at the end o
the term. %n other words8 i you take a lie insurance policy or (: years and survive the term8
the amount invested as premium in the policy will come back to you with added returns. %n
the unortunate event o death within the tenure o the policy8 the amily o the deceased will
receive the sum assured.
)ow8 let us compare insurance as an investment options. % you invest !s ':8::: in ""28 your
money grows to !s ':8: at . per cent interest over a year. But in this case8 the access to
your unds will be limited. 4ne can withdraw : per cent o the initial deposit only ater +
years.
The same amount o !s ':8::: can give you an insurance cover o up to approximately !s -
'( lakh depending upon the plan8 age and medical condition o the lie insured8 etcC and this
amount can become immediately available to the nominee o the policyholder on death. Thus
insurance is a uni#ue investment avenue that delivers sound returns in addition to protection.

strengths o the old oneL And what role might corporate advertising play in all thisL
&orporate advertising can tell a story about a company as a whole8 large organi$ations may
need to use corporate ads to simpliy their image in the minds o key constituents and to show
what uniies the company8 despite the geographical spread and variety o its businesses.
3e can very well understand the concept o corporate advertising by taking the example o
%&%&% "rudential communication. 3hen &ompany irst began operations8 the task was to
present the visiting card o the company to the public at large and build credibility and stature
and to give the consumer the conidence that EEhere is a company that can be trusted to invest
unds with.EE
This re#uired a corporate campaign - to establish the brand8 build awareness and give the
brand a larger-than-lie image.
The advertising idea8 which was encapsulated in symbols o protection rom the initial print
campaign8 culminated in the corporate ilm where sindhoor was used as an endearing and
lasting symbol o protection. 4nce the corporate image and brand identity were established8
and as the company expanded and its product range grew8 the next phase o communication
was to give the
consumer a rational and tangible reason to buy - irst o all insurance and secondly rom

why only a particular method o techni#ue had been used so that research lend themselves to

in order to solve research problem it is necessary to design a research methodology or the
problem as the same may dier rom problem to problem. !esearch design is the conceptual
structure within which the research is conducted. %ts unctions are to provide or the
collection o relevant evidence with minimum expenditure o eort8 time and money. But8
how this can be achieved depends on the research purpose. %n my study the research purpose

%n ''(8 the %ndian lie insurance companies Act was passed . This was the irst

%n the last our decades 8 ater nationali$ation o the insurance industry 8 certain socio-
economic objectives were achieved through public ownership o the insurance business. 9et8
market oriented dynamism was missing as evidenced by the lack o

The insurance sector reorms have encouraged Blue-Bloods o %ndian corporate sector

business can become global with e-business applications.
%t is awkward business playing value igures on people’s lives. %t is almost as
awkward as selling the likelihood o an event people do not want crossing their minds . in
