FUNCTIONAL AREAS

➢ FINANCE DEPARTMENTS
Something must be directing the how of economic activity and facilities its smooth operation.
Finance is the agent that produces this result. Nature of financial management refers to its
functions, scope and objectives.
Financial management is that managerial activity which is concerned with the planning and
controlling of the firm’s financial resources. In modern times finance is the life-blood of the
business. No matter, whether the business is big or small financial is the equally important.
The financial resources must proper plan and control in order to achieve the best out of
available. So, financial resources should be very properly
Generally, financial planning means deciding in advance, the financial activities are to be
carried on to achieve the objective of the firm. In broader séance, in the words of Walker and
Boughn as; “financial planning includes the determination of firm’s financial objectives,
formulating and promulgating financial policies and developing and procedures.”
Financial planning is necessary to achieve both long term and short-term objectives. A sound
financial planning includes how much need of funds for both the terms. Then from where they
are to be received and utilized.
Shriram life would evaluate different proposal placed before them and selects the best out of
them. It estimates how much capital is going to be required for various proposals and how
much is the return on the capital employed. The financial manager lays down the estimate on
the capital of cash per week, per month and per year.

➢ CAPITALIZATION
At the time of incorporation of any business, it is the first problem before the promoters to
decide how much capitalization should be made in a business. The amount of capital of any
time should not exceed nor less than the amount required. So, it is necessary to have proper
capitalization for the success of the enterprise. But Gerstenberg defines it as;
“The total accounting value of all capital regularly employed in business, it includes
owner’s capital, borrowed capital and any other sources.”

DEPARTMENT OF MBA, PES UNIVERSITY
A Report on Internship at Shriram Life Insurance Company

Thus, term includes;


1. The value of ordinary and preference shares
2. The value of all surplus earned and capital
3. The value of bonds and security still not redeemed
4. The value of long-term loans
However, the modern view includes short term funds or liabilities under the firm. It should be
properly capitalized.

➢ FUND OPTIONS
There are six funds having different proportional investment in equity, debt, market money
and cash. The funds are Preserver, Defender, Balancer, Maximus, Accelerator, and Tyaseer.

➢ MARKETING DEPARTMENT
Traditionally, insurance products have been promoted and sold principally through agency
systems in most countries. With new developments in consumer behaviour, evolution of
technology and deregulation, new distribution channels have been developed successfully and
rapidly in recent years.
Shriram Life Insurance make use of various distribution channels:
Career Agents
Advertisements
Direct Response
Internet
The main characteristics of each of these channels are:

• Career Agents: Career Agents are full-time commissioned sales personnel


holding an agency contract. They are generally considered to be independent
contractors. Consequently, an insurance company can exercise control only
over the activities of the agent, which are specified in his contract. Despite this
limitation on control, career agents with suitable training, supervision and
motivation can be highly productive and cost effective

4|Page
DEPARTMENT OF MBA, PES UNIVERSITY
A Report on Internship at Shriram Life Insurance Company

• Many insurance companies, however avoid this channel, believing that agents
might oversell out of their interest in quantity and not quality. Such problems
with career agents usually arise, not due to the nature of this channel, but
rather due to the use of improperly designed remuneration and/or incentive
packages.
• Direct Response: In this channel no salesperson visits the customer to induce a
sale and no face-to-face contact between consumer and seller occurs. The
consumer purchases products directly by responding to the company's
advertisement, mailing or telephone offers. This channel can be used for simple
packaged products, which can be easily understood by the consumer without
explanation.
• Advertisements: This very popular medium among the entire medium any
person can see this advertisement of the products and buy the product from
nearest branch.
• Internet: Internet banking is already securely established as an effective and
profitable basis for conducting banking operations. The reasonable expectation
is that personal banking services will increasingly be delivered by Internet
banking.

➢ HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT


HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
“Human Resource Management function that helps managers recruits select, train and
develop members for an organization. Obviously, HRM is concerned with the people’s
dimension in organizations
In all business concerns, there is one common element. i.e., HUMAN RESOURCE. Work force
of an Organization is one of the most important inputs of components. It is said that people
are our single most important assets. Because of the unique importance of HUMAN RESOURCE
and its complexity due to ever changing psychology, behaviour and attitudes of men and
women at work, personnel function, i.e., manpower management function is becoming
increasingly specialized.
In a sense, management is personnel administration. Management is the development of
people, and not mere direction of material resources. Human capital is the greatest asset of a
business enterprise. The essential ingredient of management is the leadership and direction of
people. Each manager of people has to be his own personnel man. Personnel management is
not something you really turn over to personnel department staff.

➢ MANPOWER PLANNING
Human Resource Planning is the process by which an organization ensures that it has the right
number and kind of people, at the right place, at the right time, capable of effectively and
efficiently competing those tasks that will help the organization achieve its overall objectives.
Human Resource Planning translates the organization’s objectives and plans into the number
of workers meet those objectives. Without a clear-cut planning, estimation of an
organization’s human resource need is reduced to mere guesswork
Manpower planning is needed with respect to persons who can work as sub-broker for the
companies. Companies focus on Advisors of Mutual Fund product and ELSS schemes of
Shriram and focused on Insurance Advisor and post office agent, Tax consultants and CAs for
making sub-broker.

❖ Shriram Life Insurance follows the following process:


The first step is forecasting the need of man power in terms of divisions, department or
functions. Along with the estimate of the number of the people required in different
departments it is also decided that at which level they will be needed.
After estimating the man power requirement, next step is to have a look at the current human
resource. The current human resource is assessed so as to know whether the requirement can
be filled by the existing personnel or not.
At last detailed policies for recruitment, selection, training, promotion, retirement,
replacement etc.
