Life insurance can be described as a contract between an insurance company and a policy holder (insured) that the former promises to pay a beneficiary amount on the demise of the later. Under the contract, a specified sum of money is liable to pay by the company to the family or beneficiary as mentioned in the contract upon the death of the policy holder.
However, non-life insurance is a type of insurance that compensates the insured for financial losses caused by unprecedented events or accidents such as accidental fire. General insurance, property insurance, and casualty insurance are major terms that come under the category of non-life insurance. Any sort of insurance that is not included in life insurance can be classified as non-life insurance. Non-life insurance policies cover a person's finances in the case of a health crisis or asset loss whereas life insurance is related to providing beneficiary amount to the family in the case of the policyholder's death.
The impact of COVID-19 pandemic has been positive on the life and non-life insurance market. Rising awareness related to importance of insurance and its benefit during the ongoing pandemic is expected to spur the market during the projected period.
