Insurance

People like to live life free of hassles and worries. This is possible when there is an assurance that they indeed don’t worry about things. This is only possible when they have insured things around which their life revolves. These things may be the family members or any possession of the individual. The idea is that people have a sense of security. In economic terms it is a form of risk management which is primarily used to hedge against the risk of a contingent loss. It is the equitable transfer of the risk of a loss, from one entity to another. In lame mans word insurance is a hedge against misfortune.
