Life Insurance Market in India Many may not be aware that the life insurance industry of India is as old as it is in any other part of the world. The first Indian life insurance company was the Oriental Life Insurance Company, which was started in India in 1818 at Kolkata. A number of players (over 250 in life and about 100 in non-life) mainly with regional focus flourished all across the country. However, the Government of India, concerned by the unethical standards adopted by some players against the consumers, nationalized the industry in two phases in 1956 (life ) and in 1972 (non-life). The insurance business of the country was then brought under two public sector companies, Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and General Insurance Corporation of India (GIC). In line with the economic reforms that were ushered in India in early nineties, the Government set up a Committee on Reforms (popularly called the Mahlotra Committee) in April 1993 to suggest reforms in the insurance sector. The Committee recommended throwing open the sector to private players to usher in competition and bring more choice to the consumer. The objective was to improve the penetration of insurance as a percentage of GDP, which remains low in India even compared to some developing countries in Asia. Reforms were initiated with the passage of Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) Bill in 1999. IRDA was set up as an independent regulatory authority, which has put in place regulation in line with global norms. So far in the private sector, 12 life insurance companies and 9 general insurance companies have been registered.

By any yardstick, India, with about 200 million middle class households, presents a huge untapped potential for players in the insurance industry. Saturation of markets in many developed economies has made the Indian market even more attractive for global insurance majors. With the per capita income in India expected to grow at over 6% for the next 10 years and with improvement in awareness levels, the demand for insurance is expected to grow at an attractive rate in India. An independent consulting company. The Monitor Group has estimated that the life insurance market will grow from Rs. 218 billion in 1998 to Rs. 1003 billion by 2008 (a compounded annual growth of 16.5%).
WINDS OF CHANGE
Reforms have marked the entry of many of the global insurance majors into the Indian market in the from of joint ventures with Indian companies. Some of the key names are AIG, New York Life, Allianz, Prudential, Standard Life, Sun Life Canada and Old Mutual. The entry of new players has rejuvenated the erstwhile monopoly player LIC, which has responded to the competition in an admirable fashion by launching new products and improving service standards. The following are the key winds of change brought about by privatization.
Market Expansion:
This has been possible due to improved awareness levels thanks to the large number of advertising campaigns launched by all the players. The scope for expansion is still unlimited as virtually all the players are concentrating on large cities and towns-except by LIC to an extent there was no significant attempt to tap the rural markets.
innovative products offered by the new players, mainly from the stable of their international partners. Customers have tremendous choice from a
large variety of products from pure term (risk) insurance to unit-linked investment products. Customers are offered unbundled products with a variety of benefits as riders from which they can choose. More customers
are buying products and services based on their true needs and not just traditional money-back policies, which is not considered very appropriate for long-term protection and savings. However, there are still some key new products yet to be introduced-e.g. health products.
Customer Service:
the most significant change with the entry of new players. There is an attempt to bring in international best practices in service and operational efficiency though use of latest technologies. Advice and need based selling is emerging though much better trained sales force and advisors. There is improvement in response and turnaround times in specific areas such as delivery of first policy receipt, policy receipt, policy document, premium notice, final maturity payment, settlement of claims etc. However, there is a long way to go and various customers survey indicate that the standards are still below customer expectation levels.
Channels of Distribution:
distribution of life insurance products was though Agents. While agents continue to be the predominant distribution channel, today a number of innovative alternative channels are being offered to consumers. Some of them are banc assurance, brokers, the internet and direct marketing. Though it is too early to predict, the wide spread of bank branch network in India could lead to banc assurance emerging as a significant distribution mechanism.
but is debatable whether there are any significant differences. In other words, each company is trying to be 'everything to everybody.' Our argument is that the strategy of being everything to everybody is risky. Some players justify the above strategy on the basis that the Indian market is huge and it can accommodate everybody. Still, in a market where it is difficult to distinguish oneself sufficiently on service or any other parameter to be able to charge a premium, it will lead to unmitigated price competition to the detriment of all players. One may achieve sales turnover, but margins and profitability will suffer severely. In the insurance industry where large amounts of capital are required, this is risky. While there is room for a few scale players with a finger in every pie, it is profitable for other players to focus on different segments to survive and thrive in a multi-firm open environment. While each company has to choose its own unique positioning based on its unique strengths, the below-mentioned generic positioning alternatives appear worth considering. Needless to say the positioning choices discussed here are not mutually exclusive and can be overlapping.
Variety-based Positioning This type of positioning is based on varieties in products and services rather than customer segments. It is a sensible strategy for those
companies who have distinctive advantage or strengths in offering certain products and services. In the insurance industry too, it is possible, to achieve a unique position by focusing on certain category or products. The insurance company can deliver better returns of its investment -linked products and thereby carve for itself a leadership position in this segment. Then there is the entire category of pension products which is widely touted to have immense growth potential in Indian due to imminent pension reforms. It is possible to achieve profitable positioning by focusing and excelling in only pension products.
Needs- based Positioning This is the most commonly understood positioning and is based on the differing needs of different groups of consumers. This can be dome successfully if a company has unique strengths to service a group of customer needs better than others. The Insurance needs of customers very significantly for different groups of customers. The insurance needs of young family with small children will be quite different from that of a family in which the incomeearner is close to retirement, in India most of the life insurance companies have a wide variety of products tailored for different customer needs and there is no company focusing on a particular customer need.
An example would be a life insurance company that focuses only on High Net-worth Individuals (HNIs). The needs of HNIs would be quite different from those of a general consumer and would require an entirely
different marketing mix right from the type of products offered and the way they are distributed, to the promotion methods employed.
Access-based Positioning
Positioning of customers can also be done by the way they are accessible. That is different groups of customers may be accessible in different ways even though they may have similar needs. Access is typically a function of customer geography or customer scale. There is excellent opportunity in the insurances industry to employ access-based positioning by targeting the rural insurance sector. The rural market for life insurance is very different form the urban market in terms of needs, income levels and distributions (seasonality, for example), penetration of media and so no. So far except for LIC, no other player has paid any attention or focus on the rural sector. Contrary to common perception it is a big opportunity as emphasized repeatedly by such eminent strategists like C.K. Prahlad. Rural market can be a highly profitable position if one is able to carefully plan and tailor an entire set of low-cost activities of advertising, distribution, and product design etc. to successfully exploit the potential.
Unlike other policies, this policy gives you a return after a certain period of time. it provides periodic payments of partial survival benefits during the term of the policy. The rest of the amount is paid at the end the term with a bonus. The risk cover on the life continues for the full sum assured even after payment of survival benefits and the bonus is also calculated on the full sum assured. This is suitable to the Indian psyche of the life insurance policyholder who wants returns at frequent intervals.
Pension plans
This is suitable for those who want a regular income after their retirement. In this scheme policyholders contribute regularly over a period of time or in a lump sum amount to form a corpus. This corpus is used to yield a regular income that is paid to policyholders until death starting from his desired retirement age. This is also known as annuity schemes. Typically, annuities are bought to provide a solution to one of the biggest financial in-securities of old age.
