Abstract

AbstractAn attempt has been made, in this chapter, to critically analyse the growths and trends in premium mobilisation and investment portfolio of the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LICI) and six select private life insurance companies (PLICs) in the post-reforms era. It has been observed that in almost all the parameters, LICI has outperformed its private peers. However, LICI’s progress over the years is slow-paced. The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) of LICI is also the least among the sample selected. Among the PLICs, SBI Life (SBI), Bajaj Allianz (BAJAJ) and HDFC Life (HDFC) were the front runners. While ICICI Prudential Life (ICICI) lagged behind select PLICSs, it is projecting a positive trend in most of the parameters. Among the PLICs, the SBI has secured the top position while Aditya Birla Sun Life (BIRLA) was among the least performers. Correlation between premium collection and total investments based on Pearson’s correlation coefficient technique suggests that premium collection and total investments of all companies barring Bajaj Allianz are positively and significantly correlated. Companies also have significant positive correlation among themselves in terms of premium collection, total investments and other sectorial investments.KeywordsPremium MobilisationTotal InvestmentSectorial InvestmentLICISBIBAJAJHDFCGrowthTrendPearson’s correlation coefficient
