The principle of insurance which ensures that an individual is restored to his former position after suffering a loss is
- utmost good faith
- insurable interest
-
indemnity
- subrogation
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
The principle of indemnity in insurance states that the insured should be compensated for the actual financial loss suffered due to an insured event, up to the extent of the policy coverage. The purpose of indemnity is to place the insure in the same financial position as they were before the loss occurred, without making a profit from the insurance claim. With indemnity, the insured is not allowed to gain financially from the insurance policy but is entitled to receive compensation that helps restore them to their pre-loss condition. The compensation is typically based on the actual value of the loss or the cost of replacing or repairing the damaged property.
