Let's See
There are two types of treaties
1. Proportional
Under proportional reinsurance, one or more reinsurers take a stated percentage share of each policy that an insurer writes. This means that the reinsurer will receive that stated percentage of the premiums and will pay the same percentage of claims. In addition, the reinsurer will allow a ceding commission to the insurer to cover the costs incurred by the insurer (marketing, underwriting, claims etc.).
2. Non-proportional
Under non-proportional reinsurance the reinsurer only pays out if the total claims suffered by the insurer in a given period exceed a stated amount.
How does the insurance pool work?
The insurance pool is one of the forms of risk management mostly practiced by insurance companies. Under this system, insurance companies come together to form a pool, which can provide protection to insurance companies against catastrophic risks such as floods, earthquakes, RSTMDST etc.
Normally, catastrophic risks are not self-insured as they are highly unpredictable and high in loss-value. Catastrophic risks are normally underwritten by the re-insurance. Any risk where the potential loss is so large that no one could afford to pay the market premium required to provide cover would not be commercially insurable. An example is that earthquakes cannot be fully insured against because an earthquake can cause more damage than any insurer or the combined insurance market is willing to risk in total assets.
Insurance is the equitable transfer of the risk of a loss, from one entity to another in exchange for payment. It is a form of risk management. An insurer, or insurance carrier, is a company selling the insurance; the insured, or policyholder, is the person or entity buying the insurance policy. The transaction involves the insured assuming a guaranteed and known relatively small loss in the form of payment to the insurer in exchange for the insurer’s promise to compensate the insured in the case of a financial (personal) loss.
Whereas, Reinsurance is insurance that is purchased by an insurance company (the “ceding company” or “cedant” or “cedent” under the arrangement) from one or more other insurance companies (the “reinsurer”) directly or through a broker as a means of risk management. The ceding company and the reinsurer enter into a reinsurance agreement which details the conditions upon which the reinsurer would pay a share of the claims incurred by the ceding company. The reinsurer is paid a “reinsurance premium” by the ceding company, which issues insurance policies to its own policyholders.
Reinsurance is insurance that is purchased by an Insurance company (the “ceding company” under the arrangement) from one or more other insurance companies (the “reinsurer”) directly or through a broker as a means of risk management. It is transferring Risk from ceding company to the reinsurer.

The compensation amount will be accessed by the insurance surveyors who are the license holder from the Beema Samiti and it will be as per the norms which have been approved by the Beema Samiti but the amount could be lesser than the surveyor's report if the insurance company will find any lapses on the same.
It depends, it’s not sure how long it will take to settle the claim it’s up to the client so normally it will take as per the Beema Samiti Directive, to settle the claims after the submission of complete documents which are asked by the insurance company.
To be an insurance surveyor he or she should be an engineer or ca (should complete his/ her fixed experience as per the rule of the Beema Samiti) or insurance professional (should complete his/ her fixed experience on fixed position as per the rule of the Beema Samiti) and they will be qualified for insurance surveyor after having surveyor’s license from the Beema Samiti.

Underwriting is the process of determining whether an insured is an acceptable risk, and if so, at what rate the insured will be accepted. Insurers cannot accept every applicant. An insurer has a responsibility to its current policyholders to make sure that it will be able to meet all the contractual obligations of its existing policies. If the insurance company issues policies on applicants that represent risks that are uninsurable or risks that require premiums higher than the insurer may charge can cover, the insurer’s ability to meet its contractual obligations is jeopardized. On the other hand, a for-profit insurer wants to make money and increase its number of policyholders. No insurer wants to reject applicants unnecessarily. All these factors must be taken into consideration in the underwriting process. An insurer is also regulated by the states in which it does business. The states expect the insurer to establish reasonable, non-discriminatory standards for accepting insured. Regulation is another important factor in the underwriting process; most of the risks are tariff governed.
Underwriting involves examining application forms, supporting documents such as appraisals or Bills that verify the value of the property, or medical reports that verify the health condition of an individual, looking at insurance maps that provide information relevant to the statistical possibility of certain types of loss, reviewing statistical data applicable to the risk to be insured, reviewing company records regarding the application and evaluating site inspection reports. Upon a thorough examination of all the data, underwriters then assign rates to the application or decline to issue a policy if it does not meet underwriting standards. During the entire process, the underwriting department frequently communicates with agents, inspectors, adjusters, and other field personnel.
Underwriting is the function of evaluating the subject of insurance, whether a person, property, profession, business, or other entity, and determining whether to insure it. The underwriter must apply company standards to each applicant and, based on these standards, ascertain whether the application represents an acceptable risk. Underwriting is the foundation of the insurance transaction process.
