Abstract:

The case is the second of a three-part series on the changes sweeping the Indian insurance industry (in particular, the marketing of insurance products) after the sector was opened for private players in 2000. The case examines the distribution strategies, specifically the bancassurance channel adopted by the new, private players. A brief history of the Indian insurance industry before 2000 is provided, highlighting the absence of a variety of distribution channels and the important role played by individual agents in distributing insurance products in India. The case provides a detailed account of the kind of distribution channels available in the insurance market and the new methods of distribution being adopted by various players.
