With most of the regulatory issues relating to the non-lifeinsurance industry ironed out, the General Insurance Council of India is now into development of data bank of fraudulent claims, clearing house and standardisation of policy wordings for commercial policies, said a top official.
"Most of the regulatory issues have been sorted out. The foreign direct investment (FDI) limit has been increased to 49 per cent. We have decided to move ahead with couple of initiatives for the collective benefit of the industry," R. Chandrasekaran, Secretary General of the council, told IANS.
According to him, the council is now working on building a data bank on fraudulent claims, setting up a clearing house to settle inter-company dues and also standardise the policy wordings for commercial insurance policies.
