Insurance Text 1: Insurance and risks

A great variety of risks can nowadays be covered by insurance. Some of the commoner risks which are usual for businesses and private individuals are as follows:

- the destruction of property by fire

- losses arising from burglary or other causes

- goods in transit

- motor vehicles

- third party claims arising out of accidents.

From past experience the probability of many risks can be calculated with great accuracy.

In Great Britain insurance business is conducted by insurance companies. The client or the prospective insured first approaches the insurance broker who then puts the client in touch with the insurer.

The insurer issues an insurance policy for the insured. It is a document setting out the exact terms and conditions of the insurance transaction. It states the precise risk covered, the period of cover and any exceptions there may be. The insured is to pay a premium the size of which is stated in the policy.

In many countries insurance against sickness, unemployment and old age is undertaken by the state. In Great Britain this insurance is undertaken by the state through the National Health Service. The employees’ contributions are deducted from their wages and salaries.

The main benefits of this insurance include:

  • retirement pensions

  • unemployment benefits, or reliefs

  • sickness benefits

  • maternity grants

  • funeral grants

  • industrial injuries

  • family allowances
