    INTRODUCTIONLife Insurance is about living happily with financial peace in mindThe business of insurance is related to the protection of the economies of asset everyasset has value & is expected to last for a certain period of time during which it will

    perform after that the benefit may not be available but sometime after may get lostearlier, an accident or some other unfitness may destroy it or make it non functional anddeprive of the benefits. Which may give to an adverse situation is a mechanism thathelps to reduce the effect of such adverse situation.Insurance does not protect the asset. It does not prevent its loss due to the peril. Thepetil can not be avoided through insurances. The peril can sometime avoid. Throughbetter safety and damage control management. Insurances only tries to reduce the

  • 8/3/2019 ramratan kumawat

    7/37

    impact of the risk on those who depends on that asset it only compensates the lossesand that too, not fully only economic consequences insured. if the loss is not financial,insurance may not be possible.There are certain principles, which make it possible for instanced to remain a fair

    arrangement. It is difficult for any one individual to bear the consequences of the riskthat he is exposed to it will become bearable when the community shared the burden.The second is that peril should occur in accidental manner. Insurance is done

    Against the contingency that may happen in the case of human being, death is certainbut the time of death is not uncertain in the person who is terminally ill. The time ofdeath is not uncertain. Through not exactly known not be insured. A human being is an income-generating asset. Ones manual labour, professional skilland business acumen are the asset. This asset also can be lost through unexpectedlyearly death or through sickness and disabilities caused accidents. So life insurance is

    necessary to help those who depend on the income which is lost due to accident

    CONCEPT OF INSURANCE

    Basically insurance is a device to share the losses of few, by transferring a portion ofthe loss to the insurance company in exchange for a certain cost. This means that a lotof people who think they may suffer a loss, each put in a little money to cover financialcosts for those among them who actually sustain the loss. Obviously, since there is acost you dont insure anything or everything, you will cover only those things that wouldcause a substantial financial burden unexpectedly on you, if you had to replace them onyour own.Hence, insurance works on the concept of risk sharing, which divides risk a

    among may people.

    There are three key factors in the term insurance:

    a) face amount - the protection or death benefit.

    b) Premium to be paid - the cost to the insured.

    c) Length of coverage - the term.

    INDIAN INSURANCE INDUSTRYPresent ScenarioThe Government of India liberalized the insurance sector in March 2000 with thepassage of the Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) Bill, lifting allentry restrictions for private players and allowing foreign players to enter the market withsome limits on direct foreign ownership.The opening up of the sector is likely to lead to greater spread and deepening ofinsurance in India and this may also include restructuring and revitalizing of the publicsector companies. In the private sector 14 life insurance and 8 general insurancecompanies have been registered. A host of private Insurance companies operating in

    both life and non-life segments have started selling their insurance policies..Life Insurance MarketThe Life Insurance market in India is an underdeveloped market that was only tappedby the state owned LIC till the entry of private insurers. The penetration of life insuranceproducts was 19 percent of the total 400 million of the insurable population. The stateowned LIC sold insurance as a tax instrument, not as a product giving protection. Mostcustomers were under- insured with no flexibility or transparency in the products. Withthe entry of the private insurers the rules of the game have changed. The 12 private insurers in the life insurance market have already grabbed nearly 9percent of the market in terms of premium income. The new business premiums of the12 private players has tripled to Rs 1000 crore in 2002- 03 over last year. Innovativeproducts, smart marketing and aggressive distribution. That's the triple whammycombination that has enabled fledgling private insurance companies to sign up Indiancustomers faster than anyone ever expected. Indians, who have always seen lifeinsurance as a tax saving device, are now suddenly turning to the private sector andsnapping up the new innovative products on offer.The following facts show how under-developed the Indian insurance business is due tostate monopoly and lack of aggressive marketing of insurance policies: -Per capita insurance premium in India is a mere US$ 10. Even in China, thecorresponding figure is US$27.78, when both the countries have the same premiumfigure as % of GDP.Insurance premium in India accounts for a mere 2.3 per cent of GDP(Compared of the world average of 7.8 percent)

  • 8/3/2019 ramratan kumawat

    9/37

    Insurance premium as a percentage of savings is barely 5.95 percent in Indian(compared to 52.5 per cent in UK)The above figures show the huge scope that exists for new business in the insurancesector.

    Liberalization will obviously bring about strong marketing of different policies by rivalfirms, with is expected to benefit the customer through a wider range of products andbetter service. Till recently, policies have only been bought by customers, rarelymarketed by the insurance firms

    Insurance business is mainly divided into four classes:

    1)Life insurance,

    2) Fire,

    3) Marine, and

    4) Miscellaneous insurance.Life insurance transacts life insurance business;

    General Insurance transacts the rest. No composites are permitted as per law.

    Indian insurance industry as on 1,4,2000, comprised of only two players in the statesector:Ex. - Life insurance Corporation of India ( LIC)Ex. - General insurance Corporation of India ( GIC)

    IntroductionMarketing is an integrated communications-based process through which individualsand communities discover that existing and newly-identified needs and wants may besatisfied by the products and services of others.Marketing is defined by the American Marketing Association as the activity, set ofinstitutions, and processes for creating, communicating, delivering, and exchanging

    offerings that have value for customers, clients, partners, and society at large. The termdeveloped from the original meaning which referred literally to going to market, as inshopping, or going to a market to buy or sell goods or services.

    Marketing ResearchMarketing research is the systematic, design, collection, analysis & reporting of data &findings relevant to a specific marketing situation facing the company.In the current competitive situation, it is necessary for every organization to research orexamine their market situation at regular interval of time.

    Four Ps:-In the early 1960s, Professor Neil Borden at Harvard Business School identified a

    number of company performance actions that can influence the consumer decision topurchase goods or services. Borden suggested that all those actions of the company

    represented a Marketing Mix. Professor E. Jerome McCarthy, also at the HarvardBusiness School in the early 1960s, suggested that the Marketing Mix contained 4elements: product, price, place and promotion.

    Product: The product aspects of marketing deal with the specificationsof the actual goods or services, and how it relates to the end-user'sneeds and wants. The scope of a product generally includes supportingelements such as warranties, guarantees, and support.

    Pricing: This refers to the process of setting a price for a product,including discounts. The price need not be monetary; it can simply be

    what is exchanged for the product or services, e.g. time, energy, orattention. Methods of setting prices optimally are in the domain of pricingscience.Placement (or distribution): refers to how the product gets to thecustomer; for example, point-of-sale placement or retailing. This third Phas also sometimes been called Place, referring to the channel by whicha product or service is sold (e.g. online vs. retail), which geographicregion or industry, to which segment (young adults, families, businesspeople), etc. also referring to how the environment in which the product issold in can affect sales.

    Promotion: This includes advertising, sales promotion, publicity, andpersonal selling. Branding refers to the various methods of promoting theproduct, brand, or company.

    These four elements are often referred to as the marketing mix, which amarketer can use to craft a marketing plan.The four Ps model is most useful when marketing low value consumer products.Industrial products, services, high value consumer products require adjustmentsto this model. Services marketing must account for the unique nature of

    services.

    MICROMARKETING OF AVIVA INSURANCETYPES OF INSURANCEThe insurance can be divided from two angles: from business point of view and from therisk point of view. Which are following:-

    (1) Life InsuranceLife Insurance is different from other insurance in the sense that the subject matter ofinsurance is life of human being. The insurer will pay the fixed amount of insurance atthe death or at the expiry of certain period. At present, life insurance enjoys maximumscope because each and every person requires the insurance. This insurance providesprotection to the family at the premature death or gives adequate amount at the old agewhen earning capacities are reduced. Types of insurance plans offered in our country

    Term assurance plans Whole life plans Endowment assurance plans Assurances for children Family income policy Life annuity Joint life assurance Pension plans Unit linked plan Policy for maintenance of handicapped dependent Endowment policies with health insurance benefits

    (2) General InsuranceThe general insurance includes property insurance, liability insurance and other formsof insurance. Fire and marine insurance comes under property insurance. Liabilityinsurance includes motor, theft, fidelity and machine insurances to ascertain extent. The

  • 8/3/2019 ramratan kumawat

    20/37

    strictest form of liability insurance is fidelity insurance whereby the insurer compensatesthe loss to the insured when he is under the liability of payment to the third party.

    Types of insurance policies available are:

    Health insurance

    Medi-claim policy Personal accident policy Group insurance policy Automobile insurance Workers compensation Liability insurance Aviation insurance Business insurance Fire insurance policy Travel insurance policy

    (3) Social InsuranceThe social insurance is to provide protection to the weaker sections of the society whoare unable to pay the premium for adequate insurance. Pension plan, disability benefits,

    unemployment benefits, sickness insurance and industrial insurance are the variousforms of social insurance. Risk point of view Insurance can be divided into property,liability and other forms of insurance. Property Insurance Under the property insuranceproperty of a person is insured against a certain specified risks. The risk may be fire ormarine perils, theft of property or goods, damage to property at accident.Examples of this are:

    Home insurance Business insurance Commercial insurance

    (4) Marine InsuranceMarine insurance provides protection against loss of marine perils. The marine perilsare collision with rock, or ship attacks by enemies, fire and capture by pirates etc. Theseperils cause damage, destruction or disappearance of the ship and cargo and non-payment of freight. So, marine insurance insures ship (Hull),cargo and freight.

    21/37

    Types of policies are:o Voyage policieso Time policieso Valued policieso

    Hull insurance- Cargo insurance- Freight insurance

    (5) Fire InsuranceFire insurance covers risks of fire. In the absence of fire insurance, the fire waste willincrease not only to the individual but to the society as well. With the help officeinsurance, the losses, arising due to fire are compensated and the society is not losingmuch. The individual is protected from such losses and his property orbusiness or

    industry will remain in the same position in which it was before the loss. The fireinsurance does not protect only losses but it provides certain consequential losses also. Policies available in this insurance are:

    Did not secure cooperation easily. People asked lot of counter question so convincing them was a major task. People did not disclose much about their employee details. A summer trainees we could not separate systems to work on. At times many people had for couple of hours to work on the computer. Since STD calls had to be made, the availability of phone was limited, so there

    was greater coordination required with respect to its usage and maintains a timeslot so that other person has a chance to use.

    WEAKNESS

    Less coverage in rural areas. Less staff Lack in making follow up. Lack of corporate agent. Lack of customer services. Lack of promotional activities.

    OPPORTUNITY There is continuous growth in insurance sector and rural market is still untapped. People have started Turing towards private insurance sector as they know that

    security and growth of money is better then another insurance company.

    like HDFC Standard life, Tata - Aig , Bajaj Allanze, Sahara, Gic, LIC, ICICI

    prudential, Aegon Religare etc. Continuous follow up of the client and customers by the other insurance

    having the time to listen you.

    There is more than 75 crores population in villages. This represents a vastpotential.

    Advisor should be supervised regularly so that their work can be improved andmade effective and efficient.

    The advisor should be keeping in constant touch with his policy holder to become

    aware of the change in his situation including marriage. Death of relatives.Releases of mortgages. Any one of them may necessitation some changes like title to policy moneys or

    more insurance. The contact conveys a message that agent and companycares for the policy holder and the family mouth publicity it increaseacceptability.

    Private insurance companies should highlight that they are managed privatelybut completely governed by IRDA.

    To capture major chunk of business they need to open more branches in suburban so that they can fulfill all need of customers.

    Perspective customers should be made more aware about the policies through
