GIC MULLS NON-LIFE SAVINGS POLICY
Article Abstract:
The General Insurance Company (GIC) intends to launch a non- life insurance policy for the first time in India. The policy is a savings-based scheme. As of now, Japan is the only country to have introduced such insurance schemes. GIC is negotiating with a consortium in Japan to know the mechanism of the schemes. Under the scheme, a policy-holder will get a fixed amount at the end of the term, irrespective of any claims. The policy will have a maturity period of 5 years. Unlike other non- insurance schemes, it does not require renewal at the end of every year. (gs)

GLOOMY BUT CREDIBLE
Article Abstract:
The savings rate, which was earlier projected at over 26 percent of gross domestic product for 1998-99, has been revised downwards by almost 2 percentage points. The savings rate has declined from 25.4 percent in 1994-95 to 24.8 percent in 1997-98 while investment rate has come down from 25.4 percent to 24.8 percent. The average investment rate for the Eighth Plan period is about 24-25 percent and this has generated average GDP growth of nearly 7 percent per annum. (khr)
