What does the contribution principle determine in life insurance?

The concept has primary application to property insurance rather than to life insurance. In the context of property insurance, assume that the property owner or other person having an insurable interest in a building buys 2 policies from different insurers for, say $2million each. If a loss occurs and the insured makes a claim against one of the insurers, and it is paid, the paying insurer would have a right to recover half of its payment from the other insurer. In the context of life insurance, an insured can have multiple policies. As long as there is full disclosure to each of the insurers of the existence of the other(s), and each insurer is willing to underwrite the risk despite the existence of the other policy, each policy stands alone and pays upon the death of the insured. Naturally, the terms, conditions, and exclusions of the policy control whether or not payment is actually made.

What is insurance and principles of insurance?

Insurance is the concept that it is better to pool together uncertain risk and spread risk among many in order to better protect against uncertainty.It is vastly easier to budget for limited loss by mathematical probability that an event will occur to a limited number of people and spreading that risk than it is to prepare for unlimited risk to occur to one person.There are seven basic principles of insurance, which include subrogation, insurable interest, contribution and utmost good faith; in addition to indemnity, nearest cause, and minimization of loss. These principles are meant to safeguard insurance contracts.


What is the disadvantages of insurance?

It costs money. You are basically betting against things going well. If you are a careful manager and have some cash reserves for emergencies your total cost may be lower without insurance. Stated otherwise, in return for the payment of money (the insurance premium), the insurer assumes the financial risk of loss for a specified occurrence or occurrences. The range of occurrences and the amount of the financial risk is specified in the insurance policy. Rather than purchasing insurance, one could "self-insure". That means that the person or entity could assess the likelihood of a loss occuring for which he/she/it may be found legally liable for damages. Further, an assessment would have to be made as to the amount of damages for which it could be held liable if found to be at fault, and the cost of defending itself against the claim. It would also have to decide how much of its assets it is willing to place at risk to pay damages to the injured party if found liable. If the amount of the insurance premium is more than the dollar amount that is at risk by self-insuring, it may make business sense to self-insure. If not, there is little, if any, risk to insuring against the risk.
