IC11 Mock Test Sample 17

These questions highlight key insurance concepts such as reserving, risk assessment, and policy features. Insurers maintain reserves (like 50% for fire and marine cargo) to meet future liabilities. Cashless facilities are mainly available in motor insurance. Risk premium is based on average loss ratios, and reserves represent estimated future liabilities. Group health policies allow installment payments, while long-term policies suit retail customers. Public liability policies define fixed compensation amounts for death and disability. Balance sheets show a company’s financial position. Cargo insurance considers warehousing and handling risks. Bill of Lading is issued by shipping companies, and insurers must file rates and guidelines with the insurance regulator (IRDAI).
