Principles of insurance

For insurance to function properly, the insurer and insured have to make sure that certain basic requirements are fulfilled when the insurance policy is drawn up.

Utmost good faith (uberrimae fidei)

When someone fills out a form applying to take out insurance, he is obliged to tell the truth about the value and condition of the goods to be insured, and also to mention anything which might increase the risk of the goods being stolen or damaged. The insurer accepts the application in "utmost good faith" that all the details supplied by the insured are correct, and fixes the level of the premium accordingly.

For his part, the insurer is obliged to deal fairly with the insured, for example by making all the conditions of the insurance policy clear to him.

Insurable interest

It is essential that the insured has an insurable interest in the goods to be insured: this means he has to suffer a financial loss if the goods are stolen or damaged. Generally this means that you can take out insurance for your own property, but not for someone else's.

Indemnity

The idea of indemnity is that if the insured suffers a loss, he has to be paid sufficient compensation to bring him back to the same financial condition as he was in before the loss — not more and not less (this doesn't apply to life or personal accident insurance). This prevents people over-insuring their goods in the hope of making a profit.
