INTRODUCTION
1.1
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
The management of an insurance company, like any other
business outfit, has an aim or purpose to pay claim in return for payment of
premium. The insurance company undertake numerous activities in their operation
usually assessing the extent to which the risk presented in any respect departs
from normal and if so, to what extent additional hazard can be mitigated at
what rating consideration. A process
known as premium rating is used to decide vohat price you should change to. The
premium price should reflect the claims list and expenses associated with the
contract but also include an allowance for the insurer profit margin, this
allowance depends on the level of competition in the relevant insurance
market.
Like every other business if the insurance companies want
to increase the amount of business they undertake (at the right price) and
attempt to do this involves different system since company differ in their
degree of reliance on a direct sales force rather than using brokers and also
in the amount they spend on advertising.
Also insurance company cannot pay all claims out of revenuer received
for premium and investment income, because the timing of these payments and
receipts cannot be co-coordinated, they must therefore maintain a fund that can
be used to pay claims, such funds are also necessary in the case claims are
unexpectedly large. In many classes of
insurance fund are accumulated carefully investment of these funds will allow
insurers to earn interest income and make capital again.
More so, the
insurers may be aware that certain potential claims payment may exceed his
financial resources. He will therefore
wish to pass on some of the liabilities for the claims to another insurer by
buying insurance like other enterprise, insurers make payment to creditors
(claims to insure commission agents) and receive money from debtor (such as
premiums) They ought then compile accounts for internal management,
shareholders and the taxation and supervisory authorities. A major problem with
these is that insurers liabilities that the potential claims payments may not
be know and must therefore be estimated.
Insurance companies must pay co-corporate with tax value added tax and
capital gain tax.
