In the context of property insurance, "monetary loss" refers to the destruction or the reduction in value of the object insured. It can also refer, for example, in the context of collision or comprehensive coverage in an auto policy, to the cost of repair. In the context of health insurance, it can refer to the cost incurred in providing medical care (for which the insured would otherwise be liable-this, incurring a monetary loss). In the context of life insurance, it refers to the loss of the financial interest that a beneficiary has in the continued life of an insured.

What are the differences between insurance and assurance?

Insurance indemnifies you if you suffer an insurable loss meaning that your asset is replaced or you are compensated to replace your asset with the basic objective of putting you back to the same financial position that you were in before you incurred the loss/damage. For example you buy insurance for your car, house, computer, etc. Assurance on the other hand aims to provide financial compensation when you suffer a loss that cannot be indemnified, that is, loss of life. For example if your spouse dies they cannot be replaced so you just get monetary compensation for your loss, which unlike in insurance, you cannot use to replace them as you would your lost laptop for instance.
