INDUSTRY PROFILE

Introduction
Insurance is a system of spreading the risk of one onto the shoulders of many. While it becomes somewhat
impossible for a man to bear by himself 100% loss to his own property or interest arising out of an
unforeseen contingency, insurance is a method or process which distributes the burden of the loss on a
number of persons within the group formed for this particular purpose. Basic human trait is to be averse to
the idea of risk taking. Insurance, whether life or non-life, provides people with a reasonable degree of
security and assurance that they will be protected in the event of a calamity or failure of any sort.
Insurance may be described as a social device to reduce or eliminate risk of loss to life and property.
Under the plan of insurance, a large number of people associate themselves by sharing risks attached to
individuals. The risks, which can be insured against, include fire, the perils of sea, death and accidents and
burglary. Any risk contingent upon these, may be insured against at a premium commensurate with the
risk involved. Thus collective bearing of risk is insurance.

History of Indian Insurance

The history of life insurance in India dates back to 1818 when it was conceived as a means to provide for
English Widows. Interestingly in those days a higher premium was charged for Indian lives than the non-
Indian lives as Indian lives were considered more risky for coverage. The Bombay Mutual Life Insurance
Society started its business in 1870. It was the first company to charge same premium for both Indian and
non-Indian lives. The Oriental Assurance Company was established in 1880. The General insurance
business in India, on the other hand, can trace its roots to the Triton (Tital) Insurance Company Limited,
the first general insurance company established in the year 1850 in Calcutta by the British. Till the end of
nineteenth century insurance business was almost entirely in the hands of overseas companies. Insurance..

Insurance can be defined as assurance for uncertainty. Insurance is about something going wrong. Its’
often about things going right.; One of the Wonders of human nature is that we never believe anything can
actually go wrong.

The insurance sector in India has come a full circle from being an open competitive market to
nationalization and back to liberalized market again. Tracking the development in Indian insurance sector
reveals the 360 degree turn witnessed over a period of almost two centuries.

The business of life insurance in Indian in its existing form started in India in the year 1818 with the
establishment of Oriental Life. Insurance Company in Calcutta.
Ownership of insurance companies is of two types:

 Shareholder ownership

 Policyholder ownership

Types of Insurance

Life Insurance - Insurance guaranteeing a specific sum of money to a designated beneficiary upon the
death of the insured, or to the insured if he or she lives beyond a certain age.

Health Insurance - Insurance against expenses incurred through illness of the insured.

Liability Insurance - This insures property such as automobiles, property and professional/business
mishaps.

Challenges facing by Insurance Industry

Threat of New Entrants: The insurance industry has been budding with new entrants every other day.
Therefore the companies should carve out niche areas such that the threat of new entrants might not be a
hindrance. There is also a chance that the big players might squeeze the small new entrants.

Power of Suppliers: Those who are supplying the capital are not that big a threat. For instance, if
someone as a very talented insurance underwriter is presently working for a small insurance company,
there exists a chance that any big player willing to enter the insurance industry might entice that person
off.

Power of Buyers: No individual is a big threat to the insurance industry and big corporate houses have a
lot more negotiating capability with the insurance companies. Big corporate clients like airlines and
pharmaceutical companies pay millions of dollars every year in premiums.

Availability of Substitutes: There exist a lot of substitutes in the insurance industry. Majorly, the large
insurance companies provide similar kinds of services – be it auto, home, commercial, health or life
insurance.
KEY MILESTONES

1912: The Indian Life insurance Companies Act enacted as first statue to regulate the life insurance
business.

1928: The Indian Insurance Companies Act enacted to enable the government to collect statistical
information about life and non-life insurance businesses.

1938: Earlier legislation consolidated and amended to by the insurance Act with the objective of
protecting the interests of the insuring public.

1965: 245 Indian and foreign insurers and provident societies take over by the central government and
nationalized. LIC formed by an act of parliament viz. LIC. Act 1956, with a capital contribution of Rs.5
Crores from the government of India.

Indian Insurance Sector Reform

Formation of the Malhotra Committee in 1993 initiated reforms in the Indian insurance sector. The aim of
the Malhotra Committee was to assess the functionality of the Indian insurance sector. This committee
was also in charge of recommending the future path of insurance in India. The Malhotra Committee
attempted to improve various aspects of the insurance sector, making them more appropriate and effective
for the Indian market

In 1994, the committee submitted the report and some of the key recommendations included:

1. Structure

Government stake in the insurance Companies to be brought down to 50%. Government should
take over the holdings of GIC and its subsidiaries so that these subsidiaries can act as independent
corporations. All the insurance companies should be given greater freedom to operate.

2. Competition

Private Companies with a minimum paid up capital of Rs.1bn should be allowed to enter the
industry. No Company should deal in both Life and General Insurance through a single entity.
Foreign companies may be allowed to enter the industry in collaboration with the domestic
companies. Postal Life Insurance should be allowed to operate in the rural market. Only One State
Level Life Insurance Company should be allowed to operate in each state.

3. Regulatory Body
The Insurance Act should be changed. An Insurance Regulatory body should be set up. Controller
of Insurance (Currently a part from the Finance Ministry) should be made independent.

4. Investments

Mandatory Investments of LIC Life Fund in government securities to be reduced from 75% to
50%. GIC and its subsidiaries are not to hold more than 5% in any company (There current
holdings to be brought down to this level over a period of time).

5. Customer Service

LIC should pay interest on delays in payments beyond 30 days. Insurance companies must be
encouraged to set up unit linked pension plans. Computerization of operations and updating of
technology to be carried out in the insurance industry The committee emphasized that in order to
improve the customer services and increase the coverage of the insurance industry should be
opened up to competition.

But at the same time, the committee felt the need to exercise caution as any failure on the part of new
players could ruin the public confidence in the industry. Hence, it was decided to allow competition in a
limited way by stipulating the minimum capital requirement of Rs.100 crores. The committee felt the need
to provide greater autonomy to insurance companies in order to improve their performance and enable
them to act as independent companies with economic motives. For this purpose, it had proposed setting up
an independent regulatory body.

The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority Act of 1999 brought about several crucial policy
changes in the insurance sector of India. It led to the formation of the Insurance Regulatory and
Development Authority (IRDA) in 2000. The goals of the IRDA are to safeguard the interests of insurance
policyholders, as well as to initiate different policy measures to help sustain growth in the Indian
insurance sector.

PRESENT SCENARIO - LIFE INSURANCE INDUSTRY IN INDIA

The life insurance industry in India grew by an impressive 47.38%, with premium income at Rs. 1560.41
billion during the fiscal year 2009-20010. Though the total volume of LIC's business increased in the last
fiscal year (2009-20010) compared to the previous one, its market share came down from 85.75% to
81.91%.
The 17 private insurers increased their market share from about 15% to about 19% in a year's time. The
figures for the first two months of the fiscal year 2009-2010 also speak of the growing share of the private
insurers. The share of LIC for this period has further come down to 75 percent, while the private players
have grabbed over 24 percent. With the opening up of the insurance industry in India many foreign
players have entered the market. The restriction on these companies is that they are not allowed to have
more than a 26% stake in a company’s ownership.

Since the opening up of the insurance sector in 1999, foreign investments of Rs. 8.7 billion have poured
into the Indian market and 19 private life insurance companies have been granted licenses.

Innovative products, smart marketing, and aggressive distribution have enabled fledgling private
insurance companies to sign up Indian customers faster than anyone expected. Indians, who had always
seen life insurance as a tax saving device, are now suddenly turning to the private sector and snapping up
the new innovative products on offer. Some of these products include investment plans with insurance and
good returns (unit linked plans), multi – purpose insurance plans, pension plans, child plans and money
back plans.

Market Share of Indian Insurance Industry

The introduction of private players in the industry has added value to the industry. The initiatives taken by
the private players are very competitive and have given immense competition to the on time monopoly of
the market LIC. Since the advent of the private players in the market the industry has seen new and
innovative steps taken by the players in this sector. The new players have improved the service quality of
the insurance. As a result LIC down the years have seen the declining phase in its career. The market
share was distributed among the private players. Though LIC still holds the 75% of the insurance sector
but the upcoming natures of these private players are enough to give more competition to LIC in the near
future. LIC market share has decreased from 95% (2002-03) to 81 %( 2004-05).The following companies
has the rest of the market share of the insurance industry. Table 3 shows the mane of the player in the
market.

Present Scenario of Insurance Industry

 India with about 200 million middle class household shows a huge untapped potential for players
in the insurance industry. Saturation of markets in many developed economies has made the Indian
market even more attractive for global insurance majors. The insurance sector in India has come to
a position of very high potential and competitiveness in the market. Indians, have always seen life
insurance as a tax saving device, are now suddenly turning to the private sector that are providing
them new products and variety for their choice.

 Consumers remain the most important centre of the insurance sector. After the entry of the foreign
players the industry is seeing a lot of competition and thus improvement of the customer service in
the industry. Computerization of operations and updating of technology has become imperative in
the current scenario. Foreign players are bringing in international best practices in service through
use of latest technologies

 The insurance agents still remain the main source through which insurance products are sold. The
concept is very well established in the country like India but still the increasing use of other
sources is imperative. At present the distribution channels that are available in the market are listed
below.

 Direct selling

 Corporate agents

 Group selling

 Brokers and cooperative societies

 Bancassurance

 Customers have tremendous choice from a large variety of products from pure term (risk)
insurance to unit-linked investment products. Customers are offered unbundled products with a
variety of benefits as riders from which they can choose. More customers are buying products and
services based on their true needs and not just traditional moneyback policies, which is not
considered very appropriate for long-term protection and savings. There is lots of saving and
investment plans in the market. However, there are still some key new products yet to be
introduced - e.g. health products.

 The rural consumer is now exhibiting an increasing propensity for insurance products. A research
conducted exhibited that the rural consumers are willing to dole out anything between Rs 3,500
and Rs 2,900 as premium each year. In the insurance the awareness level for life insurance is the
highest in rural India, but the consumers are also aware about motor, accidents and cattle
insurance. In a study conducted by MART the results showed that nearly one third said that they
had purchased some kind of insurance with the maximum penetration skewed in favor of life
insurance. The study also pointed out the private companies have huge task to play in creating
awareness and credibility among the rural populace. The perceived benefits of buying a life policy
range from security of income bulk return in future, daughter's marriage, children's education and
good return on savings, in that order, the study adds.

GENERAL INTRODUCTION

What is Financial Planning?

Financial planning is a process of setting objectives, assessing assets and resources, estimating future
financial needs, and making plans to achieve monetary goals. Many elements may be involved in
financial planning, including investing, asset allocation, and risk management. Tax, retirement, and
estate planning are typically included as well.

Financial planning plays a starring role in helping individuals get the most out of their money. Careful
planning can help individuals and couples set priorities and work steadily towards long-term goals. It
may also provide protection against the unexpected, by helping individuals prepare for things such as
unexpected illness or loss of income.

Financial planning is a critical exercise in ensuring long-term financial security. A financial plan is a
road map to help you achieve your life’s financial goals.

Here are three basic questions that you will answer during financial planning:

• Where are you today? What is your current financial situation?

• Where do you want to get to? What is your vision of your future financial situation?

• Will you be able to get there? How do you plan to achieve your vision?

During the financial planning process you analyze what your financial needs and goals are. Then, you
quantify in money terms what resources you need to meet those goals, and quantify the time period
during which you want to achieve these goals. Finally, you write an action plan on what you need to
fulfill your plan in terms of what products to buy and what types of savings to make.

The basics of financial plan may include some of the following questions:

 Will your family be financially secure, whatever happens to you?


Are your finances taxes efficient?

 Are you getting the best return in a rising or a falling stock market on your investments?

 Is your child’s education financially secure? How about for their wedding?

 Do you have enough money for your retirement?


Meaning Of Financial Planning

Financial planning is a systematic approach whereby the financial planner helps the customer to
maximize his existing financial resources by utilizing financial tools to achieve his financial goals.

Financial planning is simple mathematics. There are 3 major components:

• Financial Resources (FR)


• Financial Tools (FT)
• Financial Goals (FG)

When you want to maximize your existing financial resources by using various financial tools to
achieve your financial goals, that is financial planning.

Financial Planning: FR + FT = FG

In other words, financial planning is the process of meeting your life goals through proper
management of your finances. Life goals can include buying a home, saving for your children's
education or planning for retirement. It is a process that consists of specific steps that help you to take
a big-picture look at where you are financially. Using these steps you can work out where you are now,
what you may need in the future and what you must do to reach your goals.

Financial planning is an evolving plan that changes as you grow in your career path and move on in
your career path and move on in your life stages, it is a plan that needs to be reviewed as the
circumstances changes for example getting married, buying a house and raising a family. As your life
goals and financial status changes you will need to review your financial plans to see if you will
achieve your financial goals with in the given time line.

How should one begin a financial planning?

The only thing permanent in life is change. Times change, People change. So does life. You expect life
to be much better tomorrow than it is today. Tomorrow, you hope to fulfill all your dreams and
aspirations. But what happens if things take an untoward turn?

The first step he should take in creating a financial plan is to identify his personal and family financial
goals. Goals are based in what is most important to an individual. Short-term goals are things that one
desires soon , while long-term goals identify what one wants later on in life. Take these short-term and
long-term goals and establish priorities, making sure an emergency fund is listed as the first item. Then
estimate the cost of each goal and set a target date to reach it.

The changing life cycle affects financial planning. A person’s goals must be updated as his needs and
circumstances change. In one’s young adult years, short-term goals may include adequate insurance,
establishing good credit, and just getting under way. During a person’s middle years, the goals shift
from immediate personal spending to educate for children and planning for retirement.

360° financial planning

Instead of investing in an ad-hoc manner, 360° Financial Planning helps you take a holistic, all-round
view. Briefly, 360° Financial Planning comprises:

 Investment Planning: To make your wealth grow


 Cash Flow Planning: To provide for assets and meet the periodic cash requirements
 Tax Planning: To save on taxes and increase your income
 Insurance Planning: To protect yourself, your family and your assets
 Children's Future Planning: To give your children a financially secure future
 Retirement Planning: Because retirement is a time to relax, not to get worried

 Investment Planning

To make your wealth grow. Everyone needs to save for a rainy day. Once you have saved
enough to take care of emergencies, you should start thinking about investing and to make your money
grow.
Investment Planning includes:

• Risk Profiling
• Asset Allocation and Portfolio Construction
• Creation and Accumulation of Wealth through Systematic Investment Plans (SIP)

 Regular review of progress and Portfolio Rebalancing

Essentially, Investment Planning involves identifying the financial goals throughout our life,
and prioritizing them. Investment Planning is important because it helps us to derive the
maximum benefit from our investments.

 Cash Flow Planning:

To provide for assets and meet the periodic cash requirements. In simple terms, cash flow refers to
the inflow and outflow of money. It is a record of your income and expenses. Cash flow planning
refers to the process of identifying the major expenditures in future (both short-term and long-term)
and making planned investments so that the required amount is accumulated within the required time
frame. Cash flow planning is the first thing that should be done prior to starting an investment
exercise, because only then will you be in a position to know how your finances look like, and what is
it that you can invest without causing a strain on yourself. It will also enable you to understand if a
particular investment matches with your flow requirement.

Cash flow plan brings you face-to-face with what you should ideally be saving, and investing in a
systematic and regular manner, and what would it mean to you to withdraw from your portfolio after a
couple of years. It brings down in numbers what your financial future has in store for you, and gives a
crystal clear view (as much as is possible with inflation and the interest rate scenario).

 Tax Planning

To save on taxes and increase your income. Proper tax planning is a basic duty of every person
which should be carried out religiously. According to the income tax act, 1961, one will be eligible for
tax benefits under section 80C and section 10(10D) of the act. One has to compare the advantages of
several tax saving schemes and depending upon your age, social liabilities, tax slabs and personal
preferences, decide upon a right mix of investments, which shall reduce your tax liability to zero or the
minimum possible. Every citizen has a fundamental right to avail all the tax incentives provided by the
Government. Therefore, through prudent tax planning not only income-tax liability is reduced but also
a better future is ensured due to compulsory savings in highly safe Government schemes.

 Insurance Planning

To protect yourself, your family and your assets. "Insurance is not for the person who passes
away, it for those who survive", goes a popular saying that explains the importance of Insurance
Planning. It is extremely important that every person, especially the breadwinner, covers the risks to
his life, so that his family's quality of life does not undergo any drastic change in case of an
unfortunate eventuality. Insurance Planning is concerned with ensuring adequate coverage against
insurable risks. Calculating the right level of risk cover is a specialized activity, requiring considerable
expertise. Proper Insurance Planning can help to look at the possibility of getting a wider coverage for
the same amount of premium or the same level of coverage for the same amount of premium or the
same level of coverage for a reduced premium. Hence, the need for proper insurance planning.
In other words, insurance protects us from the contingencies that could affect us.

 Children's Future Planning

To give your children a financially secure future. All parents want to give the best possible
upbringing to their children. This includes good education and security, in case of any eventuality.
Soon, your little bundle of joy will grow up, and it will be time to provide for his or her higher
education and wedding. The purpose of Children's Future Planning is to create a corpus for foreseeable
expenditures such as those on higher education and wedding, and to provide for an adequate security
cover during their growing years. Children's Future Planning acquires added importance because
children's education and wedding are high priority life goals, which can neither be postponed nor can
there be a compromise on the amount.Good education has always been the passport to a secure future.

 Retirement Planning

Because retirement is a time to relax, not to get worried. Some like it. Some don’t. But
retirement is a reality for every working person. Most young people today think of retirement as a
distant reality. However, it is important to plan for your post-retirement life if you wish to retain your
financial independence and maintain a comfortable standard of living even when you are no longer
earning. This is extremely important, because, unlike developed nations, India does not have a social
security net. Retirement Planning acquires added importance because of the fact that though longevity
has increased, the number of working years haven’t.

Need and importance of Financial Planning

Time never stands still. You change, your needs change and your circumstances change. Additionally,
the context around you will also change. With new investment opportunities rising, the old
investments may no longer seem lucrative. That’s why the need for a regular financial planning
becomes even stronger today.

The past few years have seen a strong emergence of terms like financial planning and personal finance.
Everybody is talking about the importance of a regular financial planning.

Regular financial planning, it seems, is the only way to meet expected and unforeseen needs in life. No
wonder it is getting all the attention and making a buzz all around. It also ensures that the individual is
prepared to meet all the challenges in the volatile economic environment as well as accomplish all his
financial goals.

The need for a regular financial planning has become even more important especially in the present
scenario. Inflation and changing lifestyles are the two factors among others, which are responsible for
the volatile nature of the current economy.

Inflation rises when there too much money chases a limited number of goods. This leads to a fall in the
value of money. It is also expressed as a rise in the general price level. For example, a product that
costs Rs. 50 at present would cost Rs. 53 a year from today, assuming that prices rise a 6 per cent.
Financial planning ensures that one is well equipped to deal withstand the impact of inflation,
especially in during retirement when income streams dry up but expenses continue to rise.

It is common for individuals to upgrade their lifestyle with higher disposable incomes, it is common
for individual to upgrade their standard of living. For example, objects like cars that were considered
luxuries not too long ago, have become necessities today. Financial planning has a role to play in
helping individuals in upgrading and maintaining their lifestyle as well.

Furthermore, individual might have to cope with unplanned expenditures like medical emergencies.
Sound financial planning can enable him to easily mitigate such unwelcome situations, without
putting a strain on his finances.

12000000.
