Moral hazard in insurance

Moral Hazard in Insurance

A moral hazard is a very real risk that an insurance company has to cope with. Cases of moral hazard are common in the insurance industry, and regulators and companies must take cognizance of the same. Let us understand the various aspects about moral hazard below.

  • Meaning of moral hazard
  • Moral hazard in insurance
  • Measures against moral hazard
  • Examples of moral hazard

Meaning of moral hazard

A moral hazard is a situation where an insured individual, knowing that he is insured, will act in a reckless or careless manner intentionally. It is a situation where the insured takes advantage of the insurance company to make a profit of sorts. A simple example of a moral hazard would be, a person having motor insurance will not lock the door of his car knowing he is protected against vehicle theft.

Moral hazard in insurance

The term “moral hazard” is mostly used in the insurance space. This is because of the risks it presents to insurers. Moral hazards are present in all branches of insurance like health insurance, life insurance, motor insurance, property insurance, etc. It is the responsibility of the insurance regulator to mitigate the cases of moral hazards in insurance. It is also the moral duty of the insured to not take an undue advantage of insurance companies.

Measures against Moral Hazard

Protective terms and conditions: An insurance company can incorporate specific protective terms within their policy that can reduce the risk of moral hazard. For instance, under IRDAI regulation, a motor insurance policy will only come into force after the vehicle owner pays an initial Rs.2000 for its repairs. Only once the owner pays an initial Rs.2000, he can claim for the rest of cost of the damages.

Bonus and incentives: Many health insurance companies provide an incentive for policyholders to not make a claim by giving them a no claim bonus. This means that the coverage of the individual will be increased next year if he does not make a claim this year. This reduces the risk of moral hazard.

Industry Regulation: IRDAI should regularly look into cases of moral hazard and draft appropriate recommendations and regulations to curb this menace.

Examples of moral hazard

Let us understand the menace of moral hazard with a few examples.

Moral hazard in life insurance

A person may be secretly suicidal and he may take a life insurance policy. The person intends to leave his family with some money. The insurance company may not be aware of this person’s mental state and issues a policy. After a few months, this person intentionally meets with an accident and ends his life. The insurance company not knowing any of this has to make a claim payment to the family. This is an example of a moral hazard in life insurance.

Moral hazard in health insurance

A person may start taking his health for granted after taking a health insurance policy. He knows that the health insurance company will pay the hospital bills in the event of hospitalization.

Moral hazard in property insurance

A person may keep his home unlocked knowing his home is completely insured. A person may also recklessly drive knowing his car is insured. These are examples of moral hazard in property insurance.

Importance of Insurance to Business

Importance of Insurance to Business

Being a businessman is hard enough, dealing with uncertainties makes it even harder. This makes buying insurance for your business a prudent choice. An appropriate insurance policy can shield your business and yourself from unwarranted and unexpected shocks, and help you and your business stay on track.
Continue reading to find out the importance of insurance to business.

Top 7 Importance of Insurance to a Business

  • Keyman insurance
  • Business stability
  • Employee welfare
  • Uncertainty reduction
  • Liability protection
  • Protection against lawsuits
  • Ensures continuity of business

Keyman insurance

A keyman insurance policy provides protection against the death/disability of certain important company executives. For instance, a company can take a keyman insurance policy for their CEO, if something happens to him, the insurance company will furnish the company with the agreed compensation. The company can use these funds to hire a suitable replacement.

Business stability

The correct insurance policy can bring stability to a company in times of crisis. For instance, a company may have taken a fire insurance policy for their factory, and later suffers a fire incident at that same factory. Had the company not take insurance, their business would have been greatly destabilized. The compensation the company got was used to rebuild the factory and thus provided stability to the business operations.

Employee welfare

A company’s strength lies with its employees. It is the duty of the employer to look after the welfare of his employees. There are a variety of employee insurance products in the market catering to life insurance, health insurance, and beyond.

Uncertainty reduction

Business, by its nature, is uncertain. Insurance can provide a cushion of certainty in grave uncertain times. One should know which insurance policy to buy to reduce the uncertainties of business.

Liability protection

Liability protection is especially important to B2C businesses. There could be times where a customer gets harmed due to your business’s negligence or mistake. This aggrieved customer has the right to sue you for damages. A Liability protection insurance policy can come to the rescue at these times. It would be the insurance company’s obligation to pay the damages, not your company’s.

Protection against lawsuits

Corporate lawsuits can be an extremely expensive affair, and companies can face lawsuits from other companies, rivals, and even customers. Liability insurance can also shield a company against these.

Ensures continuity of business

A business needs to continue in the face of adversity. It simply can’t be expected to shut shop and wait till the storm blows over. Continuity is everything in business. Insurance can provide continuity to a business.

For instance, let us say a businessman bought marine cargo insurance to protect his exported shipment. Let us assume that the ship carrying his products met with an accident and all goods are lost. He now has the ability to raise a claim with the insurance company and recover the full value of the lost goods.

He can use this amount to further manufacture similar goods, this ensures continuity of business. Had he not taken marine cargo insurance, the businessman would be staring at massive losses and potential bankruptcy.

How does insurance work?

How Does Insurance Work?

So, you’ve recently purchased an insurance policy or are looking to purchase one. Smart choice!
That being said, it is not enough to just buy an insurance policy, you should also have a grasp on how does insurance work? You may have a variety of questions about insurance. This article will attempt to answer each of the following questions about insurance:

 

  • Who are the participants to an insurance contract?
  • What are the components of an insurance contract?
  • How does insurance work?
  • Who regulates the insurance industry?

Who are the participants to an insurance contract?

An insurance contract generally has 2 participants, the insurer and the insured.
Insurer: The insurer agrees to indemnify the insured against losses incurred by him. In exchange for this protection, the insured provides a fee to the insured. This fee is commonly referred to as an insurance premium.
Insured: The insured is protected by the insurer, in the event of an unforeseen incident.

What are the components of an insurance contract?

The insured and the insurer need to adhere to the components of an insurance contract. It is these components that decide the scope of the insurance contract. One must stringently go through these components with a keen eye. Some of the general components of an insurance contract include:

  • Definitions
  • Conditions
  • Exclusions
  • Payment terms
  • Insuring agreement
  • Other conditions

How does insurance work?

Understanding how insurance works is quite simple actually. Let us illustrate this through a simple example.


Example 1: Let us assume, Mr. Ricky bought a car insurance policy for his brand new Honda City. A few weeks later, his car got stolen. Mr. Ricky intimates the insurance company, files an FIR, and requests a claim. The insurance company now does its due diligence and furnishes Mr. Ricky with his claim amount.

 

Example 2: Let us state, Mr. Hari has purchased a ULIP life insurance policy from an insurance company on his 50th birthday. The insurance company invests his premium in equity/debt markets. Upon policy maturity, the insurance company will return the invested premium to Mr. Hari, along with any appreciation of capital.


Who regulates the insurance industry?

The insurance sector cannot be a completely self-governing industry. It needs a strong regulator that looks after the overall benefit of the industry and all its players. Most importantly, the regulator looks after the interests of the policyholders.


The insurance industry in India is regulated by the IRDA. Policyholders can approach the IRDA anytime they feel they have been wronged by an insurance company. It would then be the IRDA’s job to investigate and look into the matter.


Throughout the course of this article, we have understood the participants, components, regulators, and other important aspects of how insurance works. We trust that you will use this information to make a more prudent insurance decision in the future.
