Abstract:
This report focuses on the consumer behavior and awareness of life insurance towards risk security, the core product of life insurance. The primary drivers of demand for risk security are 'Age', 'Income', 'Affordability', 'Wealth' and finally 'the desire to protect income from Inflation'. Though aggregate demand is driven by these factors, various researches have shown that there is little correlation between a specific family's need for security and its actual purchase of insurance. Many families, especially young ones, have either no risk security or inadequate security. This study mostly focuses at the rural area to know consumer perception about Indian insurance company according to its services and plans available on the basis of customers’ age, income and their need.
