Essay # 1. Meaning of Insurance:
Risk and uncertainty are incidental to life. These risks and uncertainties are increasing day by day due to increase in fastness of life. Man may meet an untimely death. He may suffer from accident, destruction of property from fire, sea, floods, earthquakes and many other causes. Whenever there is uncertainty, there is risk as well as insecurity.It is to provide against risk and insecurity that insurance came into being. The main principle underlying insurance is the pooling of risks. It is a co-operative device to spread the loss caused by a risk (which is covered by insurance) over a large number of persons who are also exposed to the same risk and insure themselves against that risk.
