Two reasons for adequate insurance You must cover all possible risks. Eg. In household insurance: fire,
theft, flood and accidental damage.
You must insure enough to cover full amount of loss.
Eg. If your house is worth €200,00 you must insure it for that value.

Personal accident for a bungee jumper.

Insurance Terms Policy Excess/Excess Clause:
The insured person may have to pay the first €100 of the compensation themselves.
This is to reduce the number of small claims being made.
To make people more careful.
![Page 8: Household Insurance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56812f4b550346895d94db25/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Insurance Terms Proximate Cause:
What is the exact cause of the loss.
Eg. was it fire or theft or flood? ie. what actually happened? This helps the insurer decide if
compensation is due.
![Page 9: Household Insurance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56812f4b550346895d94db25/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Principles of insurance Insurable Interest Utmost Good Faith Indemnity Contribution Subrogation
![Page 11: Household Insurance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56812f4b550346895d94db25/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Insurable Interest In order to insure something you
must benefit from its existence & suffer from its loss.
Eg. You can insure your own house but you cannot insure your neighbours’s house.
![Page 12: Household Insurance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56812f4b550346895d94db25/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Utmost Good Faith You must tell all relevant
information when filling out an application for insurance.
Eg. If you have an illness you must tell the ins. co. as they may want to charge a higher premium or not insure you at all.
![Page 13: Household Insurance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56812f4b550346895d94db25/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Indemnity You cannot make a profit from
insurance.
There is no point in insuring your house for more than it is worth as the ins. co. will only compensate you for the actual value of the house.
![Page 14: Household Insurance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56812f4b550346895d94db25/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Contribution If a risk is insured with two
insurance companies each will pay half of the compensation.
Eg: A ring insured with two ins. co.’s. for €1,000
Both will give ?? €500 each.
![Page 15: Household Insurance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56812f4b550346895d94db25/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Subrogation Passes the legal right of the
insured over to the insurer to claim from a third party who caused the loss.
Eg. Whirlpool oven causes house to go on fire. Ins. co. pays compensation to insured and then seeks their own compensation from whirlpool.
![Page 16: Household Insurance](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56812f4b550346895d94db25/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Average Clause Related to underinsurance and partial
loss.
If you only insure an item for a fraction of the value, you only get the same fraction compensation.
