What to Focus On

  • Insurance has two broad categories: life insurance and general insurance.
  • General insurance includes fire, marine, social, and miscellaneous insurance.
  • Different types of insurance cover different kinds of risks.
  • Life insurance pays a definite sum on death or maturity.
  • It serves a dual purpose: protection and investment.
  • Premium is paid periodically.
  • Surrender value is less than the sum assured.
  • A paid-up policy has a reduced sum assured.
  • Assignment can be absolute or conditional.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
