Recommendation Bibliography

“Insurance,

in law and economics, is a form of risk

management primarily used to hedge against the risk of a contingent loss. Insurance is defined as the equitable transfer of the risk of a loss, from one entity to another, in exchange for a premium. An insurer is a company selling the insurance. The insurance rate is a factor used to determine the amount, called the premium, to be charged for a certain amount of insurance coverage. Risk management, the practice of appraising and controlling risk, has evolved as a discrete field of study and practice.” The evolution of human beings from the primordial ‘wild’ stage to the ‘cave dwelling’ stage is nothing but their saga of search for security. Their quest for security is eternal. Life insurance is a device invented by them to seek security against the most important hazards against which they found themselves quite helpless. It will not be an exaggeration to say that progress of civilization is due to human beings’ unending pursuit for security. 10

Birla Sun Life Insurance Life insurance in its modern form is a western concept. Although it started taking shape since last 300 years, it came to India with the arrival of the Europeans .the first life insurance company was established in India in 1818 as oriental life insurance company mainly by Europeans to provide for widows of Europeans. The companies that followed mainly catered to Europeans and charge extra premium on Indians lives. The first Indian company, insuring Indian lives at standard rates, was Bombay mutual life insurance company, which was formed in 1870.this was the year also when the first Insurance Act was passed by the British parliament. The years subsequent to the Swedishi Movement saw the emerging of several insurance companies. The end of the year 1955, there were 245 insurance companies and provident societies out of which 16 were non-Indian companies. These companies were nationalized in 1956 and brought under one umbrella – the life insurance corporation of India, which enjoyed monopoly of life insurance business, till almost up to the end of year 2000.By enacting the IRDA Act 2000,the government of India effectively ended LIC’s monopoly and opened the doors for private insurance companies

FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF INSURANCE
Some useful terms in Insurance: A) INDEMNITY

11

Birla Sun Life Insurance A contract of insurance contained in a fire, marine, burglary or any other policy excepting life assurance and personal accident and sickness insurance) is a contract of indemnity. This means that the insured, in case of loss against which the policy has been issued, shall be paid the actual amount of loss not exceeding the amount of the policy, i.e. he shall be fully indemnified. The object of every contract of insurance is to place the insured in the same financial position, as nearly as possible, after the loss, as if his loss had not taken place at all. It would be against public policy to allow an insured to make a profit out of his loss or damage. B) UTMOST GOOD FAITH Since insurance shifts risk from one party to another, it is essential that there must be utmost good faith and mutual confidence between the insured and the insurer. In a contract of insurance the insured knows more about the subject matter of the contract than the insurer. Consequently, he is duty bound to disclose accurately all material facts and nothing should be withheld or concealed. Any fact is material, which goes to the root of the contract of insurance and has a bearing on the risk involved. It is only when the insurer knows the whole truth that he is in a position to judge (a) Whether he should accept the risk and (b) What premium he should charge. If that were so, the insured might be tempted to bring about the event insured against in order to get money.

12

Birla Sun Life Insurance

C) Insurable Interest - A contract of insurance affected without insurable interest is void. It means that the insured must have an actual pecuniary interest and not a mere anxiety or sentimental interest in the subject matter of the insurance. The insured must be so situated with regard to the thing insured that he would have benefit by its existence and loss from its destruction. The owner of a ship run a risk of losing his ship, the charterer of the ship runs a risk of losing his freight and the owner of the cargo incurs the risk of losing his goods and profit. So, all these persons have something at stake and all of them have insurable interest. It is the existence of insurable interest in a contract of insurance, which distinguishes it from a mere watering agreement. D) Causa Proxima - The rule of causa proxima means that the cause of the loss must be proximate or immediate and not remote. If the proximate cause of the loss is a peril insured against, the insured can recover. When a loss has been brought about by two or more causes, the question arises as to which is the causa proxima, although the result could not have happened without the remote cause. But if the loss is brought about by any cause attributable to the misconduct of the insured, the insurer is not liable. E) Risk - In a contract of insurance the insurer undertakes to protect the insured from a specified loss and the insurer 13

Birla Sun Life Insurance receive a premium for running the risk of such loss. Thus, risk must attach to a policy. F) Mitigation of Loss - In the event of some mishap to the insured property, the insured must take all necessary steps to mitigate or minimize the loss, just as any prudent person would do in those circumstances. If he does not do so, the insurer can avoid the payment of loss attributable to his negligence. But it must be remembered that though the insured is bound to do his best for his insurer, he is, not bound to do so at the risk of his life.

G) Subrogation - The doctrine of subrogation is a corollary to the principle of indemnity and applies only to fire and marine insurance. According to it, when an insured has received full indemnity in respect of his loss, all rights and remedies which he has against Third person will pass on to the insurer and will be exercised for his benefit until he (the insurer) recoups the amount he has paid under the policy. It must be clarified here that the Insurer’s right of subrogation arises only when he has paid for the loss for which he is liable under the policy and this right extends only to the rights and remedies available to the insured in respect of the thing to which the contract of insurance relates.

14

Birla Sun Life Insurance H) Contribution - Where there are two or more insurance on one risk, the principle of contribution comes into play. The aim of contribution is to distribute the actual amount of loss among the different insurers who are liable for the same risk under different policies in respect of the same subject matter. Any one insurer may pay to the insured the full amount of the loss covered by the policy and then become entitled to contribution from his co-insurers in proportion to the amount which each has undertaken to pay in case of loss of the same subject-matter. In other words, the right of contribution arises when 1) There are different policies, which relate to the same subject matter 2) The policies cover the same peril which caused the loss, and 3) All the policies are in force at the time of the loss, and 4) One of the insurers has paid to the insured more than his share of the loss.

Life Insurance Policy is a form of security for the person who insures his life and his family. Life insurance policies have helped trade and other economic activities to flourish in a great manner. It has generated lots of job opportunities. It 15

Birla Sun Life Insurance is looked upon as a lucrative career option. Life insurance companies have also entered the international business scenario.

The following reasons substantiate why a life insurance policy should be taken: A) Early Deaths
The mortality rate is experiencing a declining trend in many parts of the world. However it is also important to note that the age at which People die is also ever decreasing. Some reasons for this include unhealthy living style, stress, pollution, and some natural calamities. This necessitates people to make adequate measures to yield income for their family and dependents. This could be a serious concern if the insured happens to be the sole breadwinner. Some individuals see this as an option to plan their retirement.

B) Advancements in Health Care
The mortality rate has declined rapidly even though the fact remains that the number of people who die at an early age is on the increase. This is mainly due to the advancement in healthcare and the awareness on medical facilities. This results in an increased spending at an old age. This increased spending is also due to increase in the costs of living apart from paying expensive medical bills. Unless they invest in Life insurance or other forms of insurance like health insurance it becomes next only too impossible to meet the financial demands especially during the old days.

16

Birla Sun Life Insurance

C) Increase in the Cost of Living and Spending Power
The purchasing power of the consumers and the standard of living has experienced a steep rise over the years. The increase in National Income and gross domestic product are Partly responsible for this. Individuals incur many unexpected expenses due to the growing needs. Insurance comes in handy to meet such an unexpected expense. It also Makes sure that an individual is able to meticulously plan his finances. Insurance option is more or less an interest free loan. An individual can cancel his insurance policy and obtain a huge amount if it is imperative in meeting an urgent expenses and he does not have alternative sources for finance. Life insurance companies therefore do the needful to consumers.

D) Tax Concessions
Income tax concessions are available to individuals and corporate houses that adopt insurance policies. Many have been making investments in Insurance with the sole aim of enjoying tax benefits. This naturally increases spending power. Since the investments increases the economic activities in the country automatically increases.

Sales Procedure of Insurance in BSLI:
BSLI ensures that its policyholders get the best out of the policy offered to them by their Advisors. For this, BSLI follows a set procedure of selling Insurance to the clients. The sales procedure can be diagrammatically presented as follows:

26

Birla Sun Life Insurance
SUSPECTING

PROSPECTING

APPOINTMENT

FIRST SALES CALL

FOLLOW UPS

SALES CLOSED

OFFICE WORK

This procedure can be stepped down as follows: 1. Pitching the customer: The first and foremost thing is that, client should be ready to purchase the Insurance plan. Insurance is not a very preferable product yet in India. And, thus, co. has to be very vigilant. Advisors, at BSLI, maintain relationships and make the most of their Goodwill. Insurance is a Relationship oriented business. Keeping this in mind BSLI also initiated Bancassurance, where Banks’ image of

27

Birla Sun Life Insurance being loyal to the customers, plays a major role in pitching the customer to buy Insurance. BSLI uses following routes for distributing their Product to general public: a. Direct Personal Contacts (through Advisors) b. Bancassurance (through Banks) c. Personal Relations (through co. employees) d. Existing Policyholders. 2. Sales Illustration: BSLI is the first company to give demonstration of the fund performance i.e. how a certain policy will perform or will give returns. BSLI Advisors give sales illustration. Fund performance is shown on 6% and 10% projections. If client find these projected returns suitable to his/her risk profile, he go for purchasing the policy. 3. Proposal Form: Now as client is ready to get insured, advisor gives him the proposal form and asks for all the documents required. Proposal form is a 4 page document that contains all the necessary information related to the Insured and the Owner of the policy. Documents required along with the proposal form are:  Date-Of-Birth Proof  Address & ID Proof  Income Certificate  Medical Certificates (only if Insurer is a senior citizen)

28

Birla Sun Life Insurance

4. After Sales Service: Now after the Insurance is sold, follow-ups are required. Advisor needs to maintain good relations with the policyholder. Insurance co. can Generate further business, only if, existing policyholders are satisfied with the services being provided by the advisor of the co. Thus, BSLI keeps this in mind and Business Development Executives continuously track the needs of the policyholders. BSLI provides the policyholders with monthly updates of the fund performance and also discloses the asset portfolio of the fund. This assists the policyholders to manage their policy according to their risk profile. They can, thus, change their fund allocation as well as the asset allocation in any fund, chosen by them.

Insurance sector today playing a major role in everyone’s life lot more than ever before life currently there is a comprehensive range of products covering each type of policy available in the market. We have studied various insurance plans covered under BSLI, and their features. BSLI also gives various Riders, which provides extra benefits to the customers. And we came to know about the pioneering features of BSLI, like sales procedure, SIP, etc. While most insurance plans block money for certain period of time, a BSLI plan gives the double benefit of life insurance along with easy liquidity through lump sum cash. Birla Sun Life Insurance (BSLI), one of the largest private life insurers, is gearing itself to take advantage of the vast rural opportunity that has opened up as a result of the revised definition of rural areas by the IRDA. Over the last four years, BSLI has painstakingly built its rural infrastructure to create a cost-effective distribution network across the country. Our training gave us corporate exposure, and helped in improving our communication skills. We learnt to deal with customers, we made them

aware about various plans, and their respective features, even helped them to select the best plan as per their requirements.

About Life Insurance
Why is Life Insurance so important?
Life insurance is usually taken by the earning member(s) of the family to ensure that in case of their death, and hence their source of income ceasing to exist, the dependent family members would have a lump-sum amount to fall back on. So by paying a small amount every year the earning member of the family can ensure that the future of their loved ones is absolutely secure from a financial point of view. So in the event of death of an insured person, the nominee of the policy would receive an amount called the sum assured which can then be used effectively to plan for their future. Life insurance is absolutely critical for everyone irrespective of the amount of income you currently earn, unless you have saved enough to ensure that your family can comfortably live with the savings alone – not

everyone can manage to do this even with high salary and income levels. Imagine living in a great house you have taken on loan and your family not being able to live in it, just because they do not have the income to keep paying the monthly EMIs of the home loan!

Direct Benefits of taking a Life Insurance Plan
Provides for Loss of Income - In case of the policy holder’s death, the dependents will suddenly be left without a constant source of income. The future requirements of the dependent members too would be hugely compromised with them having to settle for options which are not as good as you would have wanted if you were around. With a good amount of life insurance cover you can ensure that your family is not left high and dry along with emotional trauma of your absence. It is one of the most important reasons for taking a life insurance policy. Protects your Assets - In your absence, your family should not have to resort to selling the assets which you accumulated with your hard work. In the event that there is no source of income your family would have to sell assets like land, home, vehicle, jewellery which you had so lovingly purchased. The comforts you wanted to provide to your family should not be taken away from them to make do for their day-to-day living. In case you are adequately ensured, all your loans and your family’s financial future would be well taken care of. Financial Planning - Life insurance policies can also be taken for sound financial planning depending on your requirements and risk appetite. For the conservative investors there are a host of traditional policies like money back insurance policies and endowment plans to provide income to you at regular intervals of time. The more market friendly investors can choose ULIPs (Unit Linked Insurance Plans) to plan their future. There is a higher element of risk involved with ULIPs but the gains too can potentially be on the higher side. Ideally each individual should assess their requirements and choose their investment options and time horizon. Tax Savings - One of the key reasons, people buy life insurance is to avail tax benefits under section 80C up to the limit of Rs. 1,00,000 annually. Money paid as premium of Life Insurance policies is exempted from income tax and the proceeds from a life insurance policy on maturity also get tax exemption under section 10(10D) of the income tax.

Position

Review of Performance For the quarter ended 29 February 2012, the Group achieved revenue of RM34.44 million and a profit after tax of RM0.22 million, compared to a profit after tax of RM0.24 million for the corresponding quarter last year. The performance of each operating segment is as follows: Precision stamping & tolling segment This segment recorded a revenue of RM56.91 million and a profit of RM4.15 million for the financial period ended 29 February 2012 as compared to a revenue of RM61.50 million and a profit of RM4.58 million for the corresponding period last year. The decline in revenue was mainly due to slowdown in customer order particularly for components for LCD TV and panel TV. Japanese TV makers are facing stiff competition from Korea and Taiwan. Printed circuit board ("PCB") & module assembly segment This segment recorded a revenue of RM20.80 million and a profit of RM1.50 million for the financial period ended 29 February 2012 as compared to a revenue of RM17.98 million and loss of RM0.35 million for the corresponding period last year. The increase in revenue was mainly due to increase in assembly of complete audio sets. However, due to volatile market conditions, this trend may not continue in the upcoming quarters. Fabrication & forging segment This segment recorded a revenue of RM4.81 million and a loss of RM0.24 million for the financial period ended 29 February 2012 as compared to a revenue of RM6.11 million and a profit of RM0.23 million for the corresponding period last year. The decline in revenue was mainly due to slowdown in customer order from steel forging parts for automotive industries. Current Year Prospects The Board foresees the current year's prospect to be challenging due to the uncertain global economics environment. Nevertheless, the Group will continue in its effort to reduce costs and improve productivity.
