Abstract
There are currently many factors driving an increased formal focus on risk
management within insurers. Risk management in insurers is particularly
important as the interests of policyholders and shareholders need to be balanced.
Small insurers, in particular, have problems that larger offices do not always share
and risk management is therefore almost more important in the smaller
companies that have fewer resources to dedicate to it.
The purpose of the study was to establish the risk management practices of life
insurers in South Africa and also to compare the practices of small and large
insurers
