In order for a layman to understand and accept the true essence of insurance as a form of asset protection (not as an investment), one has to know and learn about its technicalities. A lot of consumers do not believe in the insurance system mainly because of horrifying stories about claims, often those rejected for whatever reasons. Sad to say, there is public mistrust in some insurance companies’ integrity to settle claims. This is one of the more difficult obstacles of the insurance industry in promoting insurance to the public. On the other hand, there are also clients who are being avoided because of moral hazards. Some policyholders feel that for them to get their premium expenses’ worth, a claim has to be made. Everything boils down to the most important principle – the principle of utmost good faith. Both the assured and the insurer, including intermediaries (brokers and agents), should be strictly guided by this principle to eliminate qualms.
Now that we have identified the important parameters like trust and confidence, the contribution of insurance, use of insurance, etc., let us focus the rest of this article on claims, and claims alone.
When one procures a policy, obligations are immediately established.

This is a dog-eat-dog industry and although providing competitive premium rates is an initial concern in closing a sale, at the end of the day, it is those who can pay claims promptly and fairly who win the popularity contest. "Claims are the showcase of insurance companies" is a common saying in the industry. I believe it can be reassuring for consumers to know that insurers keep this thought in mind constantly.
Proper preparation of requirements and punctual reporting of occurrence is essential to a claimant. It might be too nitty-gritty, but understanding the necessity of an appropriate documentation can lead to a swift resolution. A claimsman understands the predicament of a claimant because he, too, is not excluded from this task of seeking recovery from reinsurers.
