    Study Notes

    Key Insurance Terms

    • A written contract in insurance is referred to as a policy, which transfers financial risk to the insurance company for a fee.
    • Hazards are conditions contributing to financial risk, including events like fire, flood, and sleet.
    • The term peril denotes the risk of loss or injury to property or life within insurance contexts.

    Policy Information

    • The face of a policy indicates the maximum amount the insurer will payout in the event of a loss.
    • Concealment occurs when the insured willfully fails to disclose material information, rendering the contract voidable.
    • An incorrect or misleading statement about a material fact by the insured before the contract is finalized is categorized as false representation.
    • A warranty is a statement made by the insured that pertains to risk and appears in the insurance contract or related documents, and unfulfilled warranties can void the policy.
    • To purchase a policy, an individual must have an insurable interest, which means they would suffer financial loss if the risk occurred.

    Policyholder Insights

    • In life insurance, the individual who purchases the policy and agrees to pay the premiums is known as the policyholder.
