Introduction to Insurance:
We read our daily newspapers stories about people being involved in road accidents, of aero
planes crashing, buildings burning down, theft of goods, peoples being injured at work and many
other mishaps. Behind each story lies a measure of Personal tragedy and anxiety for those closely
involved. Yet behind each one is also the vast, sophisticated mechanism of Insurance.
From an individual point of view, insurance is an economic device whereby the individual
substitutes a small certain cost (the premium) for a large uncertain financial loss (the risk insured
against) which would exist if it were not for the insurance Contract.
The primary function of insurance is the creation of the counterpart of risk. Which is security?
Insurance does not take away the risk. The insurer does not guarantee that the event insured
against will not happen. Whatever good the management and staff, losses do occur. The
“Titanic” was unsinkable and yet was lost in the very first voyage. Plants can be operatedfor
many years without accident and then be totally destroyed by Fire. The house may still burn
down, the car may still beinvolved in an accident but at least a large element of the cost involved
will be met by the insurer.
History to Establish in Insurance Company:
General Insurance in Bangladesh: Before the independence 49 insurance companies were functioning most of those were owned by
either Pakistanis or by other foreign nationals. After the independence of Bangladesh
Government nationalized all the insurance business which were operating in Bangladesh, mostly
owned by West Pakistanis and formed the subsidiary corporation‟s one for General Insurance
and other for Life insurance business under the controlling corporation the Bangladesh
JatiyaBima Corporation.
Later in 1973, SadharanBima Corporation was formed for transacting all General Insurance
business and JibanBima Corporation for Life Insurance business.
To bring efficiency into the sector and to provide quick services with better customer
care, Government passed a law in1984 allowing the formation of Private General
Insurance Companies.
SadharanBima Corporation was given the monopoly to underwrite the business of public
and private sector both. MoreoverRe-insurance of Private sector companies was made
mandatory with SadharanBima Corporation.
The Premium rates in Bangladesh are not yet opened up and are based on Tariffs
prepared by the Central RatingCommittee headed by the controller of insurance,
Government of People‟s Republic Bangladesh. All are bound to follow the Tariffs.

Marine Cargo Insurance:
An all-risk cargo insurance policy is the broadest form of shipping insurance and will cover any
physical loss/damage from any external cause. An all-risk policy will list any exclusions that are
not covered, which can be added on to the policy as an additional clause. An annual open cargo
policy automatically insures your shipments on set terms, conditions and rate without the need to
contact your insurance broker or company each time.

client. For sea and air transits, the "Institute" Clauses, drafted by the Technical and Clauses

broad types of cover are available for sea transit-
Institute Cargo Clauses "A", "B" & "C"
Two types of cover are available for air transit
Institute Cargo Clauses, Air &, Air All Risks.
RATE-MAKING IN MARINE INSURANCE:
Cargo Insurance Rates:
The Premium on cargo depends upon the following factors
Ownership: The kinds of cargo, carried on the same ship & to the same place will
command different rates. Proper packing, profitable accounts & previous refusal of
insurance may be determining the rate.
Character of the cargo: The difference in hazard between various kinds of commodities,
different forms of the same commodity, different shipments, and different types of
packing & durability of the commodity may influence the premium rates.
Hazards & customs: The effects of seasons have important bearing commodities that are
seriously affected by cold & heat. The season at the port of destination may influence the
risk. In certain season the port is very busy with a particular cargo. Varying trade customs
associated with the different commercial routes will influence cargo rates materially. The
moral hazard is greater on certain routes.
Duration of voyage & policy condition: Insurers take into account the length of time.
Sometimes, loading of the goods aboard the vessels & protection of the goods while on
the dock are considered in calculation of premium.
12
Hull Insurance:

appointment of officers and crew. Other management, through negligence, indifference
and undue economy, may show a mad record. To treat these managements alike would be
an injustice to the better managed concerns.

of seasonal danger. References are made to storms, submerged shoals, shifting sand bars,

vessel with respects to its builder and owner, structural plan, material used in
construction, type of populations, structural strength to resists stresses and strains,
adaptability to carry various kinds of cargo and its age and physical conditions. In foreign
countries, certain societies are formulated to promulgate rule for the constructions of
vessels supervising such construction and assigning a class each vessel.
Policy Conditions: Innumerable clauses are used to limit increase the under water‟s liability.
Some policies may cover against total loss. Some may cover partial losses. Other may relate only
to general average or particular average.
Return of premium:
By agreement in the policy: The assured may pay full payment while affecting the insurance.

good packing etc.

Cancellation of policy due to change in the ownership of hull.
For Reasons of Equity: The premium is returnable for reasons of equity.
Non-attachment

returnable provided the policy does not amount to fraud.

or if a claim has been paid on the policy in respect of the full sum insured, on premium is
