Department of Insurance

ABSTRACT

Business is too important to be left to âBusiness-menâ to run and operate as they see fit. Moreso, if that âbusinessâ is that of insurance. The average Nigerian might not know much about insurance but he or she knows that insurance companies âdonât pay claimsâ  In otherwords, the insurance industry has a bad image. This was the reason behind the federal governments creation of different insurance regulatory bodies. To prevent âquacks from doing insurance business and to protect the insuring public, insurance laws and regulatory bodies have been created to further protect the insuring public. The question now is, who are these regulatory bodies? How do they operate and how effective are they in performing their duties? This project in addition to âappraisingâ these regulatory bodies, will trace the genesis of regulating insurance business and finally, make recommendations on how the regulatory bodies can do better.
