Transcript text: Insurance represents the process of risk
A. avoidance
B. selection
C. assumption
D. transference
Solution
Answer
The answer is transference.
Explanation
Option 1: Avoidance
Avoidance refers to the act of eliminating a risk entirely, which is not the primary function of insurance.
Option 2: Selection
Selection involves choosing which risks to insure, but it does not represent the overall process of insurance.
Option 3: Assumption
Assumption means taking on the risk oneself, which is contrary to the purpose of insurance.
Option 4: Transference
Transference is the correct answer because insurance involves transferring the financial risk from the insured to the insurer. This is the fundamental principle of how insurance operates.
