Claims paid — FY 2081/82

Who actually pays when it matters?

When your family needs money most, will your insurer deliver? These are the top 3 insurers that pay out the highest share of claims — NIA Annual Report FY 2081/82.

A claim settlement ratio is the percentage of claims an insurer paid out in a given year. A ratio of 98% means that for every 100 families who filed a claim, 98 were paid. The remaining 2% were rejected — usually for non-disclosure, policy lapse, or exclusion clauses. All figures above are from the NIA's audited FY 2081/82 annual report. The NIA is Nepal's statutory insurance regulator; these are not self-reported numbers.

Policy types

What are you protecting?

Each policy type serves a different financial goal — with a different premium, payout, and risk profile. Understanding the difference means you walk into any advisor conversation already knowing what questions to ask and what to expect.

Agents often earn 25–35% commission on the first-year premium of endowment plans, but very little on term plans. On a Rs. 1 lakh premium endowment plan, an agent might earn Rs. 35,000, whereas a term plan with similar coverage might only cost Rs. 16,000 total. That's why we publish this data openly — so you can have an informed conversation with any advisor before you sign. Read our Agent Transparency Guide →

First, ask the insurer for a written rejection letter. If you believe the rejection is wrong, file a formal complaint with the Nepal Insurance Authority (NIA) — they have a dedicated Grievance Redressal Cell for exactly this. Know your full policyholder rights →
