PARTICIPATION OF WOMEN IN LIFE INSURANCE
Women comprise roughly 49 per cent of the total population in India. Their contribution to the economic
activity of the country is significant and is increasing every year. Under the circumstances, there is a need
for life insurers to recognize the growing significance of women population in the economy, identify their
special needs or requirements, if any, and develop suitable product solutions to provide adequate life
insurance coverage.
In this context, a brief study is made on the share of female lives covered in life insurance business. Only
individual new business data – number of policies and first year premium for the year 2021-22 has been
considered for the purpose.
• The number of policies issued to women in the year 2021-22 is around 1.01 crore which is 34.7 per cent
of 2.91 crore total policies as against a share of 33 per cent in 2020-21.

CYBER LIABILITY INSURANCE
There are rising incidences of cyber-attacks along with a growing number of high profile data breaches. The
online exposures for individuals, business organizations, offices and other establishments continue to
increase more so in the current pandemic situation. The Authority had, therefore, constituted a working
group with a focus to examine the possibility of bringing standardization of Cyber Liability Insurance policy
wording.
The Working Group, after conducting wide consultations with various stakeholders, and after internal
deliberations concluded that standardization of policy wording is not desirable at this juncture keeping in
view of the evolving nature of legislative frameworks in dealing with cyber risk, fast growing digital
ecosystem, increasing interconnectedness globally and complexity of IT systems and emergence of new risks.
The Authority issued a Guidance document on Product Structure for Cyber Insurance vide circular No.
IRDAI/NL/CIR/MISC/242/09/2021 dated September 08, 2021
The main objectives of the guidance document on product structure for Cyber Insurance are:
a) to enable insurers to evaluate new technologies posing heightened cyber risk, identify
protection gaps in the existing products and address the changing needs of market.
b) to facilitate insurers in developing stand-alone cyber insurance products, specifically designed to
address the evolving cyber risks.
c) to provide a set of recommendations on maximum possible coverages that could be included in
the cyber insurance products.
d) to encourage insurers to adopt best practices and provide additional covers in response to
customer needs.
e) to improve the development of the cyber insurance market with new products and enhance
benefits for policyholders.
General insurers who have already developed some cyber insurance products with exclusive coverage for
individuals to protect against cyber perils and currently offering the products that mainly focused on
commercial business, may review the product structure based on the coverages advocated in the document.
Considering the demand for new cyber insurance products due to the dynamic nature of cyber-attacks and
novel challenges, the general insurers shall continuously endeavor to design a tailor-made products referring
to model policy wordings and guidance provided in the document. The above objectives should be
implemented by insurers in a manner that is fair and useful to policyholders.
