Insurance is simply the management of risk. By purchasing an insurance policy you are transferring risk to the insurance company for a price or premium paid. Insurance companies work like a coop in that they take the risk from many people and pool it together. The risk of one person dying for instance is hard to figure but the risk of a large number of people is much easier to figure. Using statistics, an insurance company can figure how many people out of a large group will die in any particular year. This way they are able to accept your risk of dying and contractually agree to a certain payment if you do die for a relatively smaller price. Life insurance is easier to compute that other types of insurance. Why? You will only die once and the company knows what they will pay. In auto insurance you can have more than one wreck and the payment required can vary greatly.

How much is needed to start an insurance company in Zimbabwe?
Obviously an insurance company need to be able to "pay out" in the case of a valid claim. Therefore the funds ultimately needed are those needed to cover the entire risk. The way it works is the risk is spread amongst a large pool of underwriters (who can afford to lose the amount staked), who for putting their money up for the risk get a percentage return each year from the client premiums. One also needs a team of assessors to look at claims and make sure there is no fraud going on. Thus an insurance business needs to have a handle on the risk relating to the insurance policies and a pool of underwriters, it is a complex business to get into and not just "an amount of money" need to start a business.
