[Audio] Insurance is a risk transfer mechanism. It's a process by which losses of a few are met by a fund created by many. This is a contract between one party, called the insured, and another party, called the insurer, whereby, in consideration of payment of the premium by the insured, the insurer agrees to make good any financial loss the insured may suffer due to the operation of an insured peril. It's also a contract whereby agreements are made by free consent of the parties, competent to contract for lawful consideration of a lawful object. We can see that insurance plays a vital role in mitigating risks and ensuring financial stability. By transferring risks to an insurer, individuals and businesses can protect themselves against potential losses. This contract provides a safety net, allowing parties to focus on their core activities while the insurer takes care of unforeseen events. It's a mutually beneficial arrangement, where the insured receives protection, and the insurer earns a premium for assuming the risk. This highlights the importance of insurance in today's world, where risks are inevitable, and financial security is paramount. We can rely on this risk transfer mechanism to provide peace of mind and financial protection. By doing so, we can navigate life's uncertainties with confidence.

[Audio] The insurance contract involves elements of both a general contract and a special contract. A general contract includes several key components such as agreement, legal consideration, competence to enter into a contract, and a legal object. On the other hand, a special contract involves specific principles that apply to insurance contracts, including insurable interest, utmost good faith, indemnity, subrogation, contribution, and proximate cause. These elements work together to create a comprehensive framework for understanding the nature of an insurance contract..
[Audio] Life insurance provides financial protection to the insured's family in case of the insured person's untimely death. It also offers savings and investment benefits. This makes life insurance a versatile financial tool. The insured person pays premiums over time, which cover the cost of the policy at maturity. At maturity, the policy pays out a lump sum to the beneficiary. The payment is tax-free and does not affect the beneficiary's income tax liability. The insured person can choose from various types of life insurance products, including term life insurance, whole life insurance, and universal life insurance. These products cater to different risk profiles and provide varying levels of coverage. The insured person can also opt for riders or add-ons to enhance the coverage..
[Audio] The insurance industry has evolved significantly over time. The development of new technologies has led to the creation of specialized insurance products that cater to specific industries and risks. For example, cyber insurance protects against data breaches and cyber attacks, while aviation insurance covers aircraft accidents and damage. Other examples include environmental insurance, which addresses pollution and contamination issues, and terrorism insurance, which provides coverage for acts of terrorism. These specialized insurance products have become increasingly popular as companies seek to mitigate risk and protect their assets..
[Audio] The motor insurance industry has been growing rapidly over the past few decades. The growth rate has been steady and consistent, with an average annual increase of around 10%. This growth rate is attributed to increasing demand for motor insurance due to rising costs of living, increased awareness about the importance of motor insurance, and improved access to insurance products. The rapid growth of the motor insurance industry has led to an increase in the number of motor insurance companies operating globally. Many of these companies have expanded their operations to new markets, both domestically and internationally. The expansion of motor insurance companies has resulted in a wider range of insurance products being offered to customers. This has enabled consumers to choose from a variety of options tailored to their specific needs. However, this growth has also raised concerns about the quality of service provided by some motor insurance companies. Some companies have been accused of offering low-quality services, such as delayed claims processing and inadequate customer support. These issues have led to a decline in customer satisfaction ratings among motor insurance companies..
[Audio] The vehicle's primary function is to transport goods or people from one place to another. This includes transporting passengers, cargo, or both. Vehicles may also serve other purposes such as providing emergency services, delivering food, or offering recreational activities. However, vehicles must adhere to specific rules and regulations set forth by the government. These rules include speed limits, traffic signs, and safety standards. Failure to comply with these rules can result in fines, penalties, or even loss of license..
[Audio] The motor insurance policy covers all types of vehicles including cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, and other road transport vehicles. The policy also includes coverage for third-party liabilities such as damages caused by uninsured drivers or pedestrians. The policyholder must pay premiums on time to maintain coverage. If the policyholder fails to pay premiums, the coverage will lapse. The policyholder can choose to purchase additional coverage options such as collision and comprehensive coverage. These options provide additional protection against specific risks such as theft, vandalism, and natural disasters. The policyholder can also purchase optional coverage for special events such as weddings and funerals..
[Audio] The classification of motor vehicles into different classes is essential for determining the appropriate level of coverage and premiums for motor insurance policies. This classification system categorizes vehicles based on several key factors including their body type, ownership, usage, and other relevant criteria. Vehicles are typically classified into three main categories: passenger cars, trucks, and buses. However, some vehicles may also be classified as motorcycles or vans depending on their specific characteristics. The classification of motor vehicles helps insurers assess the risks associated with each type of vehicle and set premiums accordingly. By understanding these classifications, individuals can make informed decisions about which type of motor insurance policy is most suitable for their needs and circumstances..
[Audio] We classify motor vehicles for underwriting and rating purposes in accordance with their use and type. Motor vehicles are categorized into two main groups: private vehicles and commercial vehicles. In our classification system, private vehicles are assigned one category, while commercial vehicles are assigned another. This distinction is important for determining insurance premiums and policy terms. We consider various factors when classifying motor vehicles, including their intended use, size, and weight.

[Audio] The private vehicles are used for various purposes including social events, family gatherings, and personal enjoyment. These vehicles are also used for professional purposes such as attending meetings, conferences, and presentations. Additionally, they are used for travel and transportation of people and goods. However, these vehicles are not used for commercial activities such as trading, racing, or transporting goods related to business..
[Audio] The various types of commercial vehicles can be categorized into several classes. These categories include goods carrying vehicles, passengers carrying vehicles, vehicles of special construction, agricultural and forestry vehicles, motorcycles, and learner vehicles. Each type of vehicle falls under a specific category based on its primary function or use. For example, goods carrying vehicles are designed to transport goods, while passengers carrying vehicles are designed to transport people. Vehicles of special construction are used for unique purposes such as construction equipment or fire trucks. Agricultural and forestry vehicles are used for farming and logging activities. Motorcycles are used for personal transportation, and learner vehicles are used for new drivers to gain experience. Understanding these categories is essential for determining the appropriate level of coverage and premiums for commercial vehicles..
[Audio] We will now focus on Goods Caring Vehicles, which is a key component of the insurance industry. This descriptive term refers to all types of vehicles intended or designed to carry goods. They range from the largest articulated lorries down to small goods-carrying delivery vans. Pickups, trucks, tankers, including their trailers, used for the carriage of goods, are all classified under this category. The importance of insuring these vehicles cannot be overstated, as they play a vital role in the movement of goods and commodities across the country. By providing coverage for Goods Caring Vehicles, we can mitigate the risks associated with their operation and ensure that businesses can operate with confidence.

[Audio] The concept of goods carrying vehicles is further divided into two categories. Firstly, we have own goods vehicles, which are used to transport the insured's own goods. Secondly, we have general cartage vehicles, which are utilized to carry goods for others on a hire-and-reward basis. This distinction is crucial in understanding the various types of goods carrying vehicles that exist within the market..
[Audio] The concept of passenger carrying vehicles refers to those vehicles used for transporting people, including taxis, minibuses, buses, and car rentals. These vehicles can be categorized into two main groups: own service vehicles and public service vehicles. Own service vehicles are owned and operated by private individuals or companies, while public service vehicles are owned and operated by the government or public entities. Both types of vehicles require specific insurance coverage to ensure they meet the necessary safety standards and regulations. In Ethiopia, the insurance corporation provides comprehensive coverage for these types of vehicles, ensuring the safety and well-being of all passengers involved..
[Audio] The concept of passenger carrying vehicles is crucial in understanding the nature of the risks associated with motor insurance policies. In this context, we need to differentiate between two types of vehicles: own service vehicles and public service vehicles. Own service vehicles are those used by the owner themselves for transporting their employees who are engaged in service activities. These vehicles have a seating capacity of less than twelve people. Public service vehicles are those used for carrying passengers for hire or reward. They can accommodate more than twelve people. It's essential to note that both types of vehicles fall under the category of passenger carrying vehicles. However, they serve different purposes and have distinct characteristics. Understanding these differences is vital when it comes to assessing the risks associated with motor insurance policies. By recognizing the distinction between own service vehicles and public service vehicles, we can better navigate the complexities of motor insurance regulations. This knowledge will enable us to provide accurate and informed advice to our clients. Furthermore, it's critical to ensure compliance with the relevant laws and regulations governing motor insurance in Ethiopia. By doing so, we can maintain the trust and confidence of our clients, which is reflected in the slogan "50 Years of Trust.
[Audio] The public hire vehicles are subject to more stringent regulations than private hire vehicles. This is because they are used by a wider range of people, including those who may not have access to other forms of transportation. As a result, public hire vehicles must adhere to specific standards and guidelines set by regulatory bodies. These standards include safety features, maintenance requirements, and environmental considerations. In addition, public hire vehicles are often required to display certain signs or markings, such as the logo of the regulatory body or the type of license required. Private hire vehicles, on the other hand, are typically used by individuals or companies for personal use or business purposes. They are therefore not subject to the same level of regulation as public hire vehicles. However, some private hire vehicles, such as those used for commercial purposes, may still be subject to certain regulations. For example, a taxi company may need to obtain a permit or license to operate its fleet of vehicles. Public hire vehicles are also subject to regular inspections and checks to ensure compliance with safety and maintenance standards. These inspections are usually carried out by regulatory bodies or independent third-party auditors. The results of these inspections can impact the vehicle's rating or classification, which can affect its ability to operate in certain areas or attract passengers. Private hire vehicles, while not subject to the same level of regulation, are still subject to certain requirements and standards. For instance, drivers must meet minimum qualifications and undergo background checks. Additionally, private hire vehicles must comply with local traffic laws and regulations. While there may be some variation in the specific requirements, most private hire vehicles are subject to similar standards and regulations..
[Audio] The public hire vehicle industry has been around for centuries. The first recorded instance was in ancient Greece where people hired horses to carry goods and passengers. In modern times, the concept of public hire vehicles has evolved significantly. Today, there are various types of public hire vehicles such as taxis, minibuses, coaches, and buses. These vehicles are widely used for transportation purposes..
[Audio] The private hire vehicle industry has been growing rapidly since the early 2000s. The growth was driven by increasing demand for luxury cars and high-end services. Many companies have invested heavily in this sector, leading to a significant increase in the number of private hire vehicles available. The rise of ride-hailing apps such as Uber and Lyft has also contributed to the growth of the private hire vehicle industry. These apps allow users to book and pay for rides using their smartphones, making it easier for people to access private hire vehicles. However, there are concerns about the impact of these apps on traditional taxi services. Some argue that the rise of ride-hailing apps has led to a decline in business for traditional taxi services, resulting in job losses and economic hardship for many drivers. Despite these challenges, the private hire vehicle industry continues to grow, driven by increasing demand for luxury cars and high-end services. The industry is expected to continue growing in the coming years, with new technologies and innovations set to further enhance the experience of users..
[Audio] The fare-paying buses in Ethiopia operate on a network of routes that cover various parts of the country. These buses have a seating capacity of more than 12 passengers. They are also referred to as long-distance buses. The primary function of these buses is to provide transportation between cities and towns across different regions of Ethiopia. Many people rely on these buses for their daily commutes. They offer an affordable alternative to private car ownership. The buses are equipped with modern amenities such as air conditioning, restrooms, and food vendors. This makes them a preferred mode of transport for both locals and tourists alike..
[Audio] The vehicles referred to here as being of special construction are those that have been specifically designed or built to serve particular functions. These vehicles are typically used for specific tasks and are not intended for general use. They are often customized to meet the unique needs of their operators. The vehicles mentioned above are examples of specialized equipment that are used for a variety of purposes such as firefighting, medical emergencies, heavy construction, and excavation work. Breakdown vehicles, site clearing and leveling plants, including dumpers, excavators, dozers, and graders, also fall into this category. These vehicles are designed to perform specific tasks and are not intended for general use. The vehicles referred to here as being of special construction are typically used for specific tasks and are often customized to meet the unique needs of their operators.

[Audio] The insurer needs to carefully assess the specific requirements of the vehicle being insured and the potential hazards associated with its use. By doing so, the insurer can provide the necessary coverage to protect against unforeseen events. The insurer must also consider the type of vehicle being insured and whether it falls into a particular category such as a goods vehicle or a passenger vehicle. This will help determine what type of coverage is required. The insurer may also need to review the driver's qualifications and experience to ensure they have the necessary skills to operate the vehicle safely. Additionally, the insurer must evaluate the vehicle's maintenance history and any existing damage to determine if repairs are needed. Furthermore, the insurer must consider the location where the vehicle will be used and the potential risks associated with driving in certain areas. All these factors must be taken into account when determining the appropriate level of coverage for the vehicle..
[Audio] The agricultural and foresting vehicles are classified as a separate category because of their unique characteristics. They have distinct features such as engines, transmissions, and axles that set them apart from other types of vehicles. This classification allows for specialized insurance coverage tailored to their specific needs. The vehicles themselves are often used for both farming and forestry purposes, but their design and functionality make them more suited to supporting agricultural and forestry operations..
[Audio] Motorcycles are two-wheeled or three-wheeled vehicles that can be either private or commercial, depending on their intended use. They typically feature a single engine and a manual transmission system. Motorcycles often require additional safety features such as helmets and protective gear..
[Audio] The Vehicle Insurance against Third Party Risks Proclamation classifies vehicles into four main categories: Passengers Carrying Vehicles, Goods Carrying Vehicles, Special Vehicles, and Motor Trade Risks. The classification is based on the type of vehicle and its intended use. The Vehicle Insurance against Third Party Risks Proclamation provides details on how these classifications are determined, including the use of the VIATPR Premium Tariff table. This table outlines the different categories and their corresponding premiums. By understanding the vehicle classification, drivers and vehicle owners can better manage their risks and costs associated with vehicle insurance. The classification system helps to ensure that vehicles are properly rated and that premiums are fair and accurate. The classification criteria include factors such as vehicle age, engine capacity, and payload capacity. The classification process involves a combination of technical analysis and subjective evaluation. The classification system is regularly reviewed and updated to reflect changes in the market and new technologies. The classification criteria may vary depending on the jurisdiction and regulatory requirements. The classification process ensures that all vehicles are accurately classified and rated for insurance purposes. The classification system is designed to provide a fair and transparent rating system for all vehicles. The classification criteria are used to determine the premium rates for each category.

Third, there's Third Party Fire and Theft, which offers additional protection against fire-related losses and theft of the insured vehicle. Lastly, we have Comprehensive Cover, which provides the highest level of protection, covering not only third-party risks but also damage to the insured vehicle itself. Each of these options caters to specific needs and preferences of the insured..
[Audio] The Ethiopian government has implemented measures to reduce the number of accidents on the country's roads. One such measure is the requirement that all vehicles must carry a valid Vehicle Insurance Against Third Party Risks (VIATPR) policy. This policy requires drivers to have liability insurance that covers damages or injuries caused to third parties resulting from the use of a vehicle. The policy also includes provisions for compensation for loss of life, disability, and other forms of injury. The Ethiopian government has established a system of registration and monitoring of these policies to ensure compliance. The registration process involves submitting documentation and paying fees to the relevant authorities. The monitoring system ensures that all registered policies are up-to-date and compliant with the required regulations. The Ethiopian government has also introduced a new regulation requiring all vehicles to carry a valid VIATPR policy by a certain date. This regulation aims to reduce the number of accidents on the country's roads and protect the rights of victims of accidents. The regulation specifies the minimum requirements for motor insurers to provide adequate protection to third parties in the event of an accident. The regulation also outlines the procedures for handling claims and disputes related to accidents. The Ethiopian government has also established a network of courts and tribunals to handle claims and disputes related to accidents. The network includes specialized courts and tribunals that deal with cases involving serious injuries and fatalities. The court system is designed to provide swift and fair resolution of disputes related to accidents. The court system is also designed to promote transparency and accountability in the handling of claims and disputes related to accidents. The Ethiopian government has also introduced a new provision that allows victims of accidents to seek compensation for non-medical expenses related to their injuries. This provision aims to support victims who may not have access to medical care or other resources. The provision also helps to reduce the financial burden on victims and their families. The Ethiopian government has also established a system of support services for victims of accidents. The system includes counseling, rehabilitation, and other forms of assistance. The support services aim to help victims recover from their injuries and rebuild their lives. The system also provides information and resources to help victims navigate the court system and access other forms of support..
[Audio] The third-party limits have been updated according to the latest regulations. As per the amended Proclamation No. 554/2024, the compulsory third-party motor insurance liability limits are now specified. For instance, the maximum coverage for death is set at Birr 250000.00, while the maximum coverage for bodily injury is also Birr 250000.00. Furthermore, the maximum coverage for damage to third-party property is Birr 200000.00. Additionally, emergency medical treatment is covered up to Birr 15000.00 per person. These updated limits are essential for ensuring compliance with the relevant laws and regulations..
[Audio] The Ethiopian Insurance Corporation has issued a policy that outlines the terms and conditions of road accidents. According to Article 2 of the policy, the term Road refers to any highway, urban or rural street, parking or terminal, bridge, or any other passage used by vehicles. This definition is crucial in understanding the scope of the insurance coverage.

Furthermore, it specifies that the insured must provide proof of liability insurance. The proclamation also defines the types of damages that can be claimed under the policy. These definitions are critical in ensuring that the policy is fair and equitable for all parties involved. The policy's provisions are affected by these definitions and the proclamation. Therefore, it is essential to carefully review the policy to understand its terms and conditions..

[Audio] The Contract of Motor Insurance consists of several key documents that work together to ensure a smooth and efficient process.

The certificate of insurance is another crucial component, providing proof of insurance as mandated by relevant laws and regulations.
