Abstract

India, with a middle class household population of around 200 million, presents a huge untapped potential for players in the insurance industry. Its per capita income is expected to grow at over 6% in the next 10 years, which paired with the ever increasing awareness levels of the masses pose an attractive venture for the insurance providers. Another factor that has added to the cause is the growing insecurity amongst the people with the random & repetitive unrest around the world. People fear death all the more now and the insurance seems to be the only way out, at least as referred by the insurance companies. RIES & TROUT in their famous book MARKETING WARFARE talk about mountains in the mind and their occupancy by products. Well, in the Indian insurance market, the whole mountain of the mind is occupied by LIC. With the entry of players like AIG, Sun life, New York life, ing, Allianz, Cardiff, Prudential etc has rejuvenated the erstwhile monopoly player LIC, which has responded to the competition in admirable fashion by launching new products and improving service standards. The scope of expansion is still unlimited as virtually all the players are concentrating on large cities and towns except for LIC. Advice and need based selling is emerging through much better trained advisers and sales force. However, there is still a long way to go and various customer surveys indicate that the standards are still below customer expectation levels. Innovative channels of distribution have been adopted like the internet or the bancassurance route, to name a few.
