Insurance encompasses various types such as life, health, property, and casualty insurance. Each type serves distinct purposes, providing financial protection against specific risks. Life insurance safeguards against loss of life, offering benefits to beneficiaries. Health insurance covers medical expenses. Property insurance protects against damage or loss of property due to unforeseen events. Casualty insurance mitigates liability risks. In contrast, the stock market represents a platform where investors buy and sell shares of publicly traded companies, aiming for capital appreciation or dividends. The stock market is volatile, influenced by economic conditions, geopolitical events, and company performance. Insurance and stock markets are interconnected as insurers may invest policyholder premiums in stocks to generate returns, subject to market risks.
