Insurance

Insurance is a financial arrangement that provides protection against the risk of financial loss or damage. It involves a contract, known as a policy, between an individual or entity (the insured) and an insurance company (the insurer). In exchange for regular premium payments, the insurer agrees to compensate the insured for specific losses or damages that may occur within the terms defined in the policy. This can include risks such as health issues, accidents, property damage, and liability claims. Insurance helps individuals and businesses manage uncertainty and mitigate the financial impact of unforeseen events by pooling risk among many policyholders. The primary purpose of insurance is to provide security and peace of mind by ensuring that, in the event of a covered incident, the financial burden is alleviated.
