General Overview of Life and Non-Life Policy
GENERAL OVERVIEW ON COMPOSITE INSURANCE
Life itself is risky and it is a risk not to be part of the risky adventures of life. Buying insurance is one of the adventures in life that are risky not to be part. As many of you know, we live in a world full of risks and threats. Because of this, we have to transfer our risks to reliable and good third parties who can reduce risk at an affordable cost for us. What this means is that should the unforeseen occurs, we and our family members as the case maybe will have something and someone to come to our aid. However, besides cost, there are also many important aspects we have to take note of before finding the right insurance for ourselves. Now, read on to find out what aspects you need to scrutinize before buying insurance.
Life assurance should be the first insurance policy that I would recommend for someone to acquire before other insurance polices. This is because it provides financial benefit for policy holder, beneficiary or a family member in case the insured dies. It will also pay for the burial or funeral expenses. There are companies that offer cheap insurance, so check out by requesting quotes and compare. That's the best way to get a better deal. However in an economic meltdown situation where most companies are striving to survive, its only reasonable for one to look at the books ( financial statements) of these insurance companies and also look at there pedigree in terms prompt and effective claims payment.
Another type of insurance that you might arouse you interest is home insurance. If you own a house, you may purchase a policy to assist you in case it will be damaged due to natural calamities like flood, earthquake, typhoon, and the like. Ask a representative for inclusions and exclusions on the standard coverage to manage your expectations. This comes as a cheap insurance because those who are renting can buy a separate policy for renters. However home insurance are for people that have a home. For some who does not have a home and desires to get one, mortgage insurance to cover the mortgage loan received from a financial institution would meet the perfect need of the persons. It will also reduce the risk of the assured or the beneficiaries losing the property should there be eventuality or incapacitation to offset the mortgage loan.
On the other hand, auto insurance is considered as widely purchased policy. If you own a car, you would likely purchase a policy to help you lower the cost of repairs in case of vehicular accidents. This is thought to be costly but there are still ways to get cheap insurance for your car. If you have two or more cars, you can insure these vehicles to get discount. The difference in the premium is very minimal when you purchase a policy for two cars as compare to purchasing one policy for one car. However the contemporary third party insurance cover are the most sought after in less developed and developing country like Nigeria where the awareness and the perception of the an average Nigerian citizen still have some reservation about the business of insurance.
Other form of Insurance that are not common though are usually required by Embassies at one time or the other especially when people is migrating from one country to another are The Health Insurance and The Visa Insurance. Students who are wishing to study abroad can visit the link below for a guided information.
Generally you can get cheap insurance when you pay your premiums annually (lump sum payment) rather than paying monthly or quarterly. It helps to reduce the cost of your premium since you will have less management cost. Thus, you can opt for a one-year policy to have a big discount. Always read and understand the terms and conditions contained in your policy. Some dubious insurance companies do not stick to the principle of utmost good faith and disclosure in their transactions with the public. It is advisable to seek the advise, services and recommendation of an Insurance broker and don't be afraid to request for discount from your provider. Choose a good company that offers cheap insurance. Remember to get different quotes from various providers offline/ online before signing up or renewing your policy.
Inflation is one factor to watch out for in our quest to buy insurance protections. Always check if your claims are adjusted for inflation. To many people, this is vital because inflation has usually been on a rising trend since historical times except for some periods of deflation during the Great Depression. Because of this, the purchasing power of money is constantly declining and if money can get devalued, so can your insurance claims. Nevertheless it is better to get our lives and properties protected against unforeseen than not protecting them at all as a result of our not being comfortable with the adjustment provided for inflation.
Should your claims not be adjusted for inflation, you will be gradually paying more premiums to get less coverage and by the time you really need the claims, they may be insufficient to cover your losses. With this, you will retain risk that ought to be transferred and help the insurance firms save money. Now, if you want to transfer risk, why not transfer everything to third parties instead of retaining some for.
Furthermore, you should also take note of the changes in benefits over time and how they can affect you. This is important because some policies can change as you age. For example, term life insurance where the premiums get higher (as you have higher likelihood of dying) and claims get lower (because the firms want to save money). Given this part where many overlook, people tend to make mistakes on buying the cheapest policy which may not be as effective in transferring risk away. Because of this, buyers must explore this component very thoroughly. However I have always emphasize that it is better to buy a cheap policy and get protected no matter how cheap the policy may seems to appear than to an unprotected life in a world where the economic situation increases our propensity to be exposed to risks. Most of us who are looking for a company to buy insurance policy try to choose one that offers the cheapest policy. As we are facing economic downturn, we always look for ways on how to save on everything. And getting a cheap insurance is a great way to make do a tight budget.
Be constructive in your bargaining power and negotiations skill so as to get a better deal from the Insurance Company. In addition, you should also know the percentage of previous income the policy pays to you if something tragic happens to you and you get covered. A general guideline would be to get the highest percentage. While this is sometimes hard to achieve, it is nevertheless still possible if you want it because there will always be providers who will want to earn the extra buck. After all if prospects like you do not exist, the Insurance companies will not be in Business.
In conclusion, after covering these vital components in insurance tips for policies, I have no doubt that readers are now smarter in picking the right policies to transfer certain risks away from them. Being equipped with this knowledge, protect yourself well and remember that you are your most important asset. Invest in yourself now, Buy Insurance today for a secured tomorrow
