History of insurance

The history of insurance in India can be divided into there phases

    Ø The first phase (pre-liberalization)  was dominated by private and foreign insurance companies before the government nationalized the sector in 1986.

    Ø In the second phase (liberalization) reforms were initiated and IRDA set up as the regulator of the insurance sector.  Private participation was invited and also FDI.

    Ø In the third phase (post-liberalization) many private companies started insurance operations with a foreign partner in  joint ventures. Currently there are 23 life insurance companies operating in India .
