How and why are insurance classified?
How and why are insurance classified? The classification of insurance allows to establish differences and similarities of forms and types of insurance, to reduce them to a certain number of groups and thus facilitate their study and practical use. The classification of insurance divides the whole set of insurance relationships into interdependent links (in the sphere of activity, industry, sub-sector and types) that are in each other in a certain subordination, in such a way that each subsequent link of the classification is part of the previous one. It is also important for understanding the internal structure of insurance, in developing methodological approaches to its assessment, as well as in its theoretical study. By objects of insurance Objects of insurance are the main feature of the classification of insurance: property insurance – a set of types of insurance, the object of which is the property of legal entities and individuals, for example, insurance of land transpo...
Insurance forms. What are these and what are they?
Insurance forms In insurance, two forms of realization of insurance relations are known: compulsory and voluntary. The criterion for such a division is the will of the parties. The will of the state through a special law stipulates the obligatory form of insurance, and the will of the policyholders through an application for insurance – voluntary. Consider these two forms in more detail. The initiator of compulsory insurance is the state. The state establishes a mandatory form of insurance, as a rule, in cases where: insurance protection of certain subjects is connected with the interests of not only individual policyholders, but also society as a whole; a certain group of risks is not accepted by insurers for insurance within its voluntary form due to the unprofitability of their insurance; the cost of voluntary insurance is too high for the policyholder; the policyholder underestimates the degree of danger and possible consequences of the insured event, and the publi...

Against this backdrop, the life insurance segment stands out somewhat, driven by savings and investment insurance products.

How much are overpaying for policies?
Generosity of insurers: how much do people overpay for policies? Services for the sale of policies to insurers themselves cost 241.4 billion rubles in the first nine months of 2019. Banks earned more than others, whose commissions reached 150.5 billion rubles - the same amount as for the whole of 2018. And they were ultimately paid by insurance buyers. Consumers have a choice: they can buy a policy in the office of the insurer, on its website, from an agent or from a bank. The only difference is the price, which is made up of the basic cost of the policy and the commission of the agent selling it. It is higher with banks. For example, an accident policy with a payout in case of death of the insured of 750 thousand rubles can be bought from the insurer for 3.9 thousand rubles, while in the bank it will cost 4.9 thousand rubles. Nevertheless, Russians often buy insurance in banks. First, because banks are trusted by 88% of the population, while insurance companies are trusted by only...
