INSURANCE SECTOR
DEFINE INSURANCE
Financial protection against loss or harm
Insurance, in law and economics, is a form of risk management primarily used to
hedge against the risk of a contingent loss. Insurance is defined as the equitable transfer
of the risk of a loss, from one entity to another, in exchange for a premium, and can be
thought of as a guaranteed small loss to prevent a large, possibly devastating loss. An
insurer is a company selling the insurance; an insured is the person or entity buying the
insurance. The insurance rate is a factor used to determine the amount to be charged for a
certain amount of insurance coverage, called the premium. Risk management, the
practice of appraising and controlling risk, has evolved as a discrete field of study and
practice.
CONTRACT OF INSURANCE
The insurance contract is a contract whereby the insurer will pay the insured (the
person whom benefits would be paid to, or on the behalf of), if certain defined events
occur. Subject to the "fortuity principle", the event must be uncertain. The uncertaintycan be either as to when the event will happen (i.e. in a life insurance policy, the time of
the insured's death is uncertain) or as to if it will happen at all (i.e. a fire insurance
policy).
Insurance contracts are generally considered contracts of adhesion because theinsurer draws up the contract and the insured has little or no ability to make
material changes to it. This is interpreted to mean that the insurer bears the
burden if there is any ambiguity in any terms of the contract.
Insurance contracts are unilateral, meaning that only the insurer makes legallyenforceable promises in the contract. The insured is not required to pay the
premiums, but the insurer is required to pay the benefits under the contract if
the insured has paid the premiums and met certain other basic provisions.

Insurance contracts are governed by the principle of utmost good faith whichrequires both parties of the insurance contact to deal in good faith and in
particular it imparts on the insured a duty to disclose all material facts which
relate to the risk to be covered. This contrasts with the legal doctrine that
covers most other types of contracts, caveat emptor.
REASONS FOR INSURANCE
Sometimes in life it is not possible to avoid the losses. For example People may
become ill. They may die of illness or accidents or their homes or other property may
undergo damage or theft. So in all these cases and they have to face the loss of income or
savings. So insurance is a manner of financially insuring that if such an incident comes
about then the loss does not affect the present well being of the person.
DOCTRINES OF INSURANCE
There should be a certain definite loss taken place at a known time, in a knownplace and from a known cause. Therefore the time, place and the cause of loss
should be clear enough.
The incident that represents the cause of the claim should be accidental or beyondthe control of the beneficiary.
The size of the loss must be significant from the perspective of the insured.Insurance premiums should cover both the estimated cost of losses, plus the cost
of policy, regulating the losses, and providing the principal required to logically
assure that the insurer would be able to reimburse claims.
The amount of premium should be affordable. The possibility of loss and the cost of compensation should be calculable or
estimable.
TYPES OF INSURANCE
Below are two main kinds of insurances.

WHAT IS RATIO?
A ratio is a quantity that denotes the proportional amount or magnitude of onequantity relative to another.
A ratio is a simple mathematical expression of the relationship of one item toanother. Ratios can be expressed in words, fractions, decimals or percents.
There are three types for the analysis. These are
Time series analysis Cross sectional analysis Ratio analysis
RATIO ANALYSIS
It is the study of financial condition and performance through ratios derived fromitems in the financial statements.
A method of analyzing a business by looking at its balance sheet and incomestatement.
Ratio analysis is the calculation and comparison of ratios which are derived from
the information in a company's financial statements. The level and historical trends ofthese ratios can be used to make inferences about a company's financial condition, its
operations and attractiveness as an investment. The ratio analysis which I have discussed
in report regarding SLIC is as follows:
Liquidity ratios Debt ratios Activity ratios Profitability ratios
LIQUIDITY RATIO
These ratios are used to measure a firm ability to met short-term obligation. They
compare short-term obligations to short term (or current) resources available to meet

these obligations. From these ratios, much insight can be obtained into the present cash
solvency of the firms ability to remain solvent in the event of adversity.
CURRENT RATIO
Current ratio can be obtained by dividing current assets on total current liabilities.
In simple words current ratio means that the current assets are sufficient for current
liabilities or not. If the result is 1, then it means it can satisfactory meet its financial
obligation but it should be tried to improve it, mathematically it can be written as.
Current Ratio = Current Assets
Current Liabilities
The current ratio of last five years of SLIC is as follows:

INTERPRETATION
Current ratio of State life insurance Corporation for the year 2006-2007 shows
that there is a gradual decrease in the ratio. It means that there is problem with the current
assets, while the ratio is also lower because of a slower increase in current liabilities aswell. As we know that the current ratio show the liquidity position of an organization,
that how much they can pay their current liabilities. But in 2008 its capability of paying
their current liabilities increase. So they should utilize their current assets in efficient
way and should reduce their current liability. By reducing their current liabilities they
will be able to have less to pay and more to invest somewhere else.
DEBT RATIO
Debt ratios show that up to what extant a firm is financed by debt and to which
extent the firm is using borrowed money. The debt ratio is derived by dividing a firms
total debt by its total assets. This ratio show the debt and asset position of a corporation,
mean that how much the corporation have shareholders equity and how much they have
credit. If this ratio is low then it means that shareholders equity is more than credit and
financial position will be sound. Mathematically it can be written as,
Debt ratio = Total liabilities
Total assets
The debt ratio of last five years of SLIC is as follows:

INTERPRETATION
Debt ratio of the firm shows that up to what extent the assets of a firm are
financed by equity and how much is financed by debt. From year 2006- 2009 debt ratio
of SLIC show that the ratio for these years is same, so it means that for these year SLIC
financed their assets with same proportion, because ratio are the same. It means that
SLIC assets are financed with the same proportion by both creditors and shareholders.
ACTIVITY RATIOS
Activity ratio, also known as efficiency or turnover ratio, it measures that how
effectively a firm is using its assets.It measures the speed with which various accounts
are converted into sales or cash.
RETURN ON ASSETS
The second group of profitability ratios is about profits on investment. This ratio
measures the profitability of assets regardless of the Capital structure. An important test
of management abilities that how much they can earn on funds supplied from all sources.

INTERPRETATION
Return on equity ratio show that how much an organization can get return through
the investment of equity. Return on equity ratio of SLIC from years 2005-2009 show that
they are getting back a favorable return upon the investment of their equity gradually. It
is a positive sign for state life insurance corporation because on one hand the
shareholders will get maximum return and on other hand it will also add to net profit of
corporation. But care should be taken because more equity investment will increase
equity and will increase liability of the organization.

ENVIRONMENTAL SCAN
An analysis indicating towards the organizations strengths, weaknesses,
opportunities and threat is termed as SWOT Analysis. Such an analysis is very important
for the management in retaining the strength, overcoming the weaknesses, capitalizing
over the emerging market opportunities, and carving ways to successfully tackle with the

INCREASING RATE OF SURRENDER
Because of economic condition, when the saving of people lower they cant
continue their policy. So they surrender the policy, and this is one of the important
weaknesses of SLIC.
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
Economic condition of Pakistan is not so good, due to which people have lass
saving, so when saving will be lass they cant be able start a policy.
LESS AWARENESS OF MASS
A large part of population is leaving in rural areas and people of that area is not
aware about life insurance.
WEAK MARKETING EFFORTS
As SLIC is market leader, and there is no other close competitor, so they not give
proper attention to marketing activities.
OPPORTUNITY
GROWTH OF FINANCIAL SECTOR IN PAKISTAN
As financial sector of Pakistan is starting better which will make better the
financial position of people and will increase saving of people. So this is an opportunities
for SLIC to increase their business.
DIVERSIFICATION
As SLIC is providing services in just only in life insurance, it can also start
general insurance, like the insurance of property etc.
FAVORABLE GOVERNMENT POLICIES

the maturity duration of policy or can decrease sun assured of policy etc.
THREATS

so there will be tuff competition for SLIC to face in future.

PEST analysis stands for "Political, Economic, Social, and Technological
analysis" and describes a framework of macro-environmental factors used in the
environmental scanning component of strategic management. The model has recently
been further extended to STEEPLE and STEEPLED, adding education and demographics
factors. It is a part of the external analysis when conducting a strategic analysis or doing
market research and gives a certain overview of the different macro environmental
factors that the corporation has to take into consideration. It is a useful strategic tool for
understanding market growth or decline, business position, potential and direction for
operations.
As being a market in economy SLIC is also being affected every time by political,
economic, social and technological factors.
POLITICAL FACTORS
The political environment of Punjab is quite stable since the takeover of the recent
Government. Though some factors are always trying to pollute the social and political
environment of this province, Government has taken very positive initiatives in this
context and people fell no hesitance to invest their money in insurance packages. As the
nature reveals, insurance has always been a social and ethical code of business. So SLIC
has a favorable political environment for investment and business activities. On the other
hand government policies that regulate the overall business have no harm to their
activities.
ECONOMICAL FACTORS
The economical environment too is almost in the favor of businesses prevailing in
the province. Same is the case with SLIC, because it is a long term high return project.
The employment rate is at an increasing trend because most of the people are coming
towards their own businesses which lead to employment generation and indirect
technology base environment. Than these factors as a whole contribute to a higher per
capita income. Due to positive and friendly economic factors their vast set-up and

business regulations people feel free to invest their savings for a long-term and safe
return.
SOCIO CULTURAL FACTORS
Socio cultural factors play an important role in the smooth running of business.
As a fact the dominant religion of Punjab is a peaceful religion Islam. People of this
province have great devotion towards the principles and teaching of Islam. Due to these
reasons a specific group of people are against the Insurance policies, which affect the
business of SLIC to a greater extent. In such circumstances word of mouth and the social
set-up matter a lot. But at the same time the people of Punjab are also not in favor of
foreign products and foreign organizations, which is a positive sign for SLIC.
TECHNOLOGICAL FACTORS
In terms of technological advancement SLIC is behind its competitors in the race
of insurance business. Few insurance corporations coming to this field with a new and
modern technology has got a reasonable market share in a short span of life. But now
SLIC is launching online business. With this facility people can get every type of
information about SLIC. Their packages, rates and also can apply for online policies.
This service will provide a new ways and segments, where SLIC can compete on strong
grounds.

APPLICATION OF CLASS ROOM LEARING
Being a student of BBA (HONS) I find that insurance sector is the most
appropriate organization for me to learn and doing the work because you learn and seek
the concepts in practical life. Although the practical applications of marketing tools are
very different from what we learn from books and teachers in classes it seems to be very
helpful for me.
I have done my semester before internship program and in these semesters I
learnt a lot which is applicable in this sector and have a scope in insurance sector. I
studied finance and marketing subjects in my study program. There is a lot of
applicability of these courses in SLIC.
All the processes of SLIC required marketing, finance and HRM terms like ratio
analysis, 4 Ps of marketing, inventory management etc. if I did not learn all this then I
would be face difficulties but my classroom study help me very much to understand the
operations of SLIC. Moreover presentations, assignments, projects, computer skills
especially MS Office was really have a great importance in financial institutions as well
as in my organization.
Class room learning also helps me to adjust quickly in the organization, and be
familiar with the operations. Due to my class room learning, I was able to acquire, utilize
and share my knowledge as well as the knowledge I got from my organization.
