The Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority has floated a Web site to educate general public and insurance policyholders on various aspects of insurance.
“The Web site is an attempt to reach out to all to give certain basic generic information on the subjects in order that consumers begin to think and seek answers to questions such as what they need to buy,’’ Mr J. Hari Narayan, Chairman, IRDA, said in a circular.
The portal — www.policyholder.gov.in — is live now and feedback and suggestions on the initiative can be sent to the regulator.
The creation of the Web site is part of a series of initiatives under the ‘Bima Bemisaal’ for creating awareness about insurance.
