Story - ICICI Prudential's success story

ICICI Prudential's success story It is a real life story. A story of an insurer that has managed to hold on to its lead in the marketplace for seven years. ICICI Prudential, a joint venture between ICICI Bank   and Prudential UK, has been around ever since the private sector was allowed to sell life insurance policies.   Since then the tribe of life insurers has grown from 12 to 16, but ICICI still leads the private sector pack. With a portfolio of over 6.5 million policies, India's biggest private sector life insurer has not merely held on to its share but grown it; at the end of January 2008, the firm commanded 29 per cent of the share owned by private sector players. Quite some way below was Bajaj Allianz with 21 per cent, while State Bank of India   came in third with 10 per cent. How did ICICI achieve that?

The reason for this is that when you shop online for vehicle insurance you are able to view quotes from m...

Insurance in India- Myths about insurance

Myths about insurance For many people, insurance is just another form of investment. They buy one or two life insurance policies , and then forget all about them. Ask them about other insurance covers—accident , health, or household valuables—and they will tell you that that's a waste of money. Why pay a premium for a health insurance cover, when you're in the pink of health, they will argue. Insurance advisors say mistaken notions about insurance are surprisingly widespread and persistent, and that this is the reason an alarming number of people are underinsured or even uninsured. "Most people have picked up certain assumptions over the years, and it is very difficult to convince them otherwise," says an insurance agent of the Life Insurance Corporation of India. "Even after the opening up of the insurance industry, some of these wrong ideas continue to play an important role in the decision-making process."   Two life policies are enough ...
