The insurance market is having a wide variety of personal accident insurance products. Each product has unique features and the insuring public may find it a challenge to choose an appropriate product. Therefore, with the objective of having a standard product with common coverage and policy wordings across the industry, the Authority has decided to mandate all general and health insurers to offer the standard personal accident insurance product.
The Authority has been assessing the economic position both at global level and at the Indian context, in general and the insurance sector in particular. The situation has been assessed based on the financial results of insurers for the quarters ending 30th September, 2020 and 31st December 2020.
The economic situation owing to COVID-19 pandemic has seen an exponential increase in cyber-attacks across the globe and in particular, the financial sector. This situation has necessitated Regulators to re-look into their Cyber Security Guidelines applicable to all regulated entities in an effort to protect the financial systems.
