FAQ :
What is insurance?
Insurance is a process whereby a party called “the Insurer” undertakes to another party called “the Insured”, against a premium payable by the latter, that “the Insurer” shall compensate “the Insured” for the loss that “the Insured” may incur in the case of a risk is realized.
What is the difference between the insurance contract and insurance policy??
** The insurance contract: It is a contract under which the Insurer commits to pay to the Insured or the named beneficiary a sum of money, income salary or other financial indemnity in the event of an accident or the Insured risk is realized, in return for premiums or any other financial payments to be made by the Insured to the Insurer.
** The policy: is the insurance document that proves the insurance contract
What is a premium?
The premium is an amount of money which the Insured is committed to pay in a single payment or successive payments to the Insurer in return for the latter’s commitment to assume liability for the risks insured.
A premium in insurance is a key element and an obligation of the Insured which is incorporated into the contract structure. It makes the insurance contract commutative. Furthermore, the premium is as important as the risk; no insurance without risk and no insurance without premium.
The installment is legally the reason for the Insurer’s obligation to insure the risk; and technically, Insurers depend on installments to settle disaster claims.
What is the deductible amount in insurance?
It is the portion of a loss borne by the Insured when the risk occurs
What is the purpose of insurance?
