INTRODUCTION
Beema-Pakistan Co. Ltd., is pleased to present its first re-insurance
product, which is one of its kind in the Pakistan market.
This proprietary initiative towards re-insurance, is in line
with the insurance laws of the land, Islam and the ideology
of Pakistan. DAULAT is a domestic re-insurance pool, based
on gold and motivated by the vision that: "The life and
property of the Ummah must be protected by the
Ummah".
NEXT
The nature of insurance business is based on the 'law of probability'.
This makes re-insurance initiatives absolutely Islamic is
the vision statement above. The risk insured is in line with
physically backed tangible assets, and these without fail,
bridge the contingency of loss.
HOW
We realized that for insurance companies
- paid-up capital, reserves or statutory deposits do not
represent the “claim settlement ability”;
- that re-insurance pools based on (printed paper) bonds
and certificates are suspect, slow-moving and saturated
from the tangability and marketing perspective.
- we therefore address the people, who share our vision
and wish to share our gold! Gold has been a traditional
symbol of wealth in our society and despite being non-productive
it is, tangible. We envisage that gold reserves will cause:
- consolidation of national wealth, (making gold productive
for the first time)
- a worth-while investment for people who want an anti riba
income, and
- would serve the Ummah well, saving valuable foreign exchange
for the country.
PREMISES OF INVESTMENT AND RETURNS
It is assumed that the Pakistan market is worth about
US Dollars 20 billion in annual trade (import and exports),
and USD 40 billion in insurable social assets. Together these
figures represent USD 60 billion or Pakistani Rupees 3.6 trillion.
The Statistical data however indicates a direct insurance
premium in the Pakistan market of only US Dollar 400 million
(approximately), of which 70% or USD 280 million is ceded
out of the country towards re-insurance. What comes back is
26% approximately of the above to meet claims by way of retro-cession.
This implies that foreign re-insurers are making 74% of what
they receive from the Pakistan market to subsidize their economies!
DAULAT the gold-based re-insurance pool is intended to:
- save this drain and divert it to traditional investors
in the domestic market causing domestic resource mobilization,
and
- create a real asset-base pool which can assume cross
border risks reversing the present drain of our national
resources.
