3ISTOR5 O$ INSURANCE
As wit; so many t;ings in so many facets of our lives< insurance too was born out of a primal need and s;aped by socio%economics realities of t;e time. *;e story goes bac: to around A&## B-< to t;e ancient civili?ation of Babylon and business practice call B?otto&r!@( ,or all practical purpose a form of marine insurance< bottomry enabled s;ip owners to borrow money against t;eir s;ips to pay for t;e trip. 5it; piracy rampant on ;ig; seas< traders and seafarers were reluctant to sail to ot;er t;em some semblance of security. *;e arrangement was t;at only if t;eir s;ip returned did traders ;ave to repay t;e loan< along wit; interest. 5;ic; was pegged at an above%mar:et rate for t;e ris: covered. So< if t;eir s;ip failed to ma:e it bac:< t;ey did not ;ave to repay t;e loan< t;ereby recovering some or all of t;e loss.
ORIGINS
5it; t;e marine route being t;e bedroc: of trade and commerce in t;ose days< t;e practice of bottomry evolved< and spread. 5it; t;e growt; of towns and trade in .urope< medieval guilds Cgroups organi?ed on t;e basis of some common objective< li:e tradersD pooled in money to protect t;eir members from loss by fire and s;ipwrec:< to pay ransom if t;ey were captured by pirates< and to provide burial and support in sic:ness and poverty. By t;e middle of t;e &'t; century< as evidenced by t;e earliest :nown insurance contract a crisis. Several insurers defaulted on t;eir contractual obligations to policy;olders< citing investment losses : some even folded up. *;e )nsurance Act &E$F introduced state controls on insurance< but even t;is failed to safeguard policy;older interests.
*;e origin of insurance is very old .*;e time w;en we were not even bornG man ;as soug;t some sort of protection from t;e unpredictable calamities of t;e nature. *;e basic urge in man to secure ;imself against any form of ris: and uncertainty led to t;e origin of insurance. *;e insurance came to )ndia from UKG wit; t;e establis;ment of t;e riental Life

1IMITATION
(ow so ever impeccable a t;ing may see to be t;ere always dwell some possibilities of failure and incompleteness. *;e result of t;is wor: also subject to some of limitations are as follows :% /ue to s;ortage of time t;e studies conducted on very small scale i.e. based upon material and information provided by t;e company. ) ;ave faced a lot of problem in collecting t;e information about t;e company Some of t;e officers were too busy to give a sincere response to investigation and ;ence t;eir response may not relate to real picture. *;e findings of t;e researc; are limited to a particular area 6 can not be applied to all places. As t;e ;uman be;avior is not constant so t;e results collected t;roug; =uestionnaire may or may not apply to future period of time.
SUGGESTIONS
-ompany s;ould emp;asis on insurance plan advertisement< because at present company main focus on conventional product advertisement. -ompany also segment for small income people. Because company mainly plan for middle and ;ig; income people group. )f company enters in t;is segment t;en company can capture a large part of rural mar:et. -ompany s;ould also c;ange t;e commission structure of ,.-.< because in initial year commission is very ;ig; as compare to remaining year. So ,.-. does not focus on remaining year and many policies lapsed. More and more advisor need to made so t;at t;e mar:et can be covered at large. /uring my survey ) contact to people li:e doctors lawyers <ban: manager< and ;ig; profile people. but according to my observation t;ese people are not suitable because t;ey are not interested in suc; :ind of wor:. *;erefore people doing clerical jobs< graduates unemployed people< w;o are in low income group s;ould be ta:en into consideration.
