EVOLUTION OF LIFE INSURANCE INDUSTRY

Life insurance started back in the 16th century when people were taking out life insurance contracts, mainly on a one year basis, to cover funeral expenses.

At the time there were no restrictions on who you could take out the insurance contract on and, as a result, a number of people were using it as gambling.

Towards the end of the 18th century, there were a number of people with quite high income but no assets who saw the need for taking out cover to protect their dependents.

LIFE INSURANCE IN PAKISTAN

The insurance sector in Pakistan, until end of year 2000, was under the regulatory purview of The Federal Ministry of Commerce, Government of Pakistan.

Empirical results show that during That period, the private sector insurance industry was fragmented and suffered operational Inefficiencies due to lower Paid‐up Capital and Equity requirements, while the public sector Insurance companies enjoyed their privileged status due to captive business.

A new insurance law was introduced in 2000 when the Insurance Act, 1938 was repealed and replaced with the Insurance Ordinance, 2000. The new law primarily aimed to ensure the Protection of insurance policyholders’ interest and to promote sound development of the Insurance industry.

As of October 20, 2010 forty nine (49) insurance and takaful companies are transacting insurance business in Pakistan along with one government owned reinsurance company PRCL

Main difference between Takaful and Insurance

Takaful Companies Conventional Insurance Companies

Takaful is based on mutual cooperation. Conventional insurance is based solely on commercial factors.

Takaful is free from interest (Riba), gambling, (Maysir), and uncertainty (Gharar).

Conventional insurance includes elements of interest, gambling, and uncertainty.

All or part of the contribution paid by the Participant is a donation to the Takaful Fund, which helps other Participants by providing protection against potential risks.

The premium is paid to conventional insurance companies and is owned by them in exchange for bearing all expected risks

Takaful companies are subject to the governing law as well as a Shari’a Supervisory Board.

Conventional companies are only subject to the governing laws.

There is a full segregation between the Participants Takaful Fund account and the shareholders' accounts

Premium paid by the Policyholder is considered as income to the company, belonging to the shareholders.

Any surplus in the Takaful Fund is shared among Participants only, and the investment profits are distributed among Participants and shareholders on the basis of Mudaraba or Wakala models.

All surpluses and profits belong to the shareholders only.
