IC39 Mock Test Sample 6

Insurance fraud and risk management involve regulatory oversight by IRDAI and global bodies like IAIS. Fraud includes misrepresentation, manufacturing defect claims, arson, and false accident claims. Legal frameworks like PMLA impose strict penalties, while AML tools like STR and CTR help detect suspicious financial activities. Policy wordings significantly impact claim outcomes, sometimes leading to genuine claims being rejected. Investigations must be impartial, relying on proper analysis and correlation of evidence. Technology such as AI and analytics improves fraud detection, especially in areas like livestock insurance. Various insurance policies cover operational risks, while fraud in personal accident insurance often involves intentional misrepresentation of causes.
