CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

BACKGROUND OF STUDY

There is a saying that in every country, their fire wood cook their meal. This aphorism is   true of insurance,   which started in various countries in diverse ways. However, industrial revolution development in science, and technology have let to people seeking better and more efficient ways of doing  things

Some of these early forms of insurance  practice like bottomry  or respondent a bonds, craft guilds, sharing of goods amongst many vessel sailing   down yantez River, issue, social clubs, Town  unions  and  communal self- help programmes have metamorphosed into modern insurance  practice

Bottomry bond was the granting of a loan on the security of vessel on the understanding that the loan was not repayable, if the vessel did not survive the voyage. Respondent a bond was  almost the some thing with bottomry bound   except  that cargo was pledged to secure the lone.   The interest represents the premium for covering the risk borne by the lender

Modern insurance as a means of risk management device is the  central  to  the  economic  well- being of man. It is also endemic in any society  as ways of turning for  the  betterment   of  financial  consequence  of  misfortunes  have  been engaging the attention  of man at every age.

Before  the arrival  of the  British merchant  Nigerian, there was no organized insurance  business  as we  know  it  today . there existed  some  traditional  systems of  risk sharking  like crude  or  primitive   forms of   mutual and  social insurance  schemes.  The  extended  family system, age   grade  association, town or  clan  unions were   some  mutual insurance   like  schemes  for  showing  benevolence  to their  member  who had  sufferer  some  misfortunes such  as death, illness. Fire  ravages or  court  cases.

Both the extended family extended  family  system  and  clan  unions  still   exist in Nigerian  today, but most of  their insurance functions has been taken over by an organized   insurance system. It was the British  merchants who established the trading posts on the west coast of Africa that introduced modern insurance business in Nigeria in the     late 19th century. They  arranged  insurance  for  their  trading concerns  on  the London    insurance   market. As  early as 1900s  at  least two insurance companies were know to have   appointed agent in Nigeria.

Royal  Exchange Assurance  company appointed a  resident official  in Lagos  in 1921. Thus   they became  first insurance  company to commence full –scale  insurance  operation in Nigeria  until  when  three  other  British  insurance  companies were established.  The  state of  insurance  industry in Nigeria should  largely be a function of the  state of  nation economy.

The how level of awareness of insurance  can be  readily perceived from student

Also  some   people  sees  insurance  services as a   malicious act  (419) this was due to the attitude of  the insurance  to the policyholder at the time of claim the find one reason  or  the  other why they should  not compensate    the  claimant.

Another  reason that contributes  to  unpopularity  of  modern  insurance is  the view  of  eastners about insurance.  services,  modern  insurance  service  is a contract that pays  at  the  time  of  loss or  damages, in a situation whereby there  is no  loss  or  damage  they will not  compensate the   policyholder for this reason some  people  prefer buying  share from a financial  institution like banks to buying insurance   products.
