Expenses of Life Insurance Companies
Source: IRDA14
Insurance is a long term contract with average tenure of 15 years.
Comparatively high start-up cost to be related to a long tenure.
Under Section 40 B of Insurance Act 1938, there is a capping on expenses of management.
- Exemption is granted to companies in first 5 years of operation.
- Any non-compliance later is viewed adversely by IRD
A.
Maximum Commission payable to agents under various product heads is prescribed in the
Insurance Act (section 40 A).
Longer the term of the policy, lower is the premium and therefore percent commission is
higher. For shorter term policies the percent commission is lower as premium is higher. Thisensures that the absolute commission is reasonable.
In last four years (i.e. from FY 06-07 to FY 09-10) more than Rs.1,55,600 crores of premium
was collected at a commission of less than 2.0%
