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...

How do insurers decide whether to total my car?
How do insurers decide whether to total my car? A car insurance company's decision to total a car depends on the extent of the damage following an accident. Car insurance companies take into account several factors when deciding whether to total your car, including: Repair estimates List value Salvage value State laws, if applicable While each car insurance company approaches the decision differently, many insurers declare the vehicle a total loss if the estimated cost of repairs plus the salvage value equals or exceeds the car's actual cash value. The actual cash value is a car's fair market value – or, replacement cost less depreciation. Adjusters typically determine a car's actual cash value by looking to their company's proprietary database of values. Some insurers total the car if repair costs exceed a certain percentage of the car's actual cash value. Common thresholds for totaling a vehicle are 51 percent or 80 percent of the value, at...

What in the insurance policy can be considered influenza?
Insurance against a runny nose: What in the policy can be considered "flu"? As winter approaches, many of us catch colds and start sneezing and coughing. Some insurers offer special voluntary medical insurance programs for those who get the flu or acute respiratory diseases every winter. Can such a policy protect its holder from seasonal illnesses? Insurance companies engaged in voluntary health insurance (VHI) have not yet developed a general approach to protecting against the flu. Some have offered citizens vaccinations followed by insurance against the disease itself. For example, about a month ago, GUTA Insurance announced a VHI program called "Protection from Influenza." This program provides mandatory vaccination against influenza using vaccines recommended by the WHO and pays compensation in case of illness or complications within a year after vaccination. In other words, the vaccine's effectiveness is assumed to last a year. The policy, which has an i...
