Insurance
Insurance is a financial arrangement that provides protection against potential future losses or damages. It involves a contract, known as a policy, between an individual or entity (the insured) and an insurance company (the insurer), whereby the insured pays regular premiums in exchange for financial compensation or coverage for specific risks. These risks can include various events such as accidents, illnesses, property damage, or liability claims.Insurance operates on the principle of risk pooling, where the premiums collected from many insured individuals are used to pay for the losses incurred by a few. This helps individuals manage uncertainty by providing a safety net, ensuring that they are not economically devastated by unexpected events. Insurance can take many forms, including life insurance, health insurance, auto insurance, homeowners insurance, and liability insurance, among others. Each type of insurance covers specific risks and has its own set of conditions, exclusions, and limitations. Overall, insurance provides financial security and peace of mind by mitigating the impact of unforeseen circumstances.
