“Insurance involves sharing of risks.” Comment.

Solution

Yes, Insurance involves sharing of risk. When the insured suffers a loss the insurance company pays him the compensation for the loss. Such loss is not actually paid by the insurer himself. He only distributes the loss suffered by an insured person among other policy holders who are exposed to a similar risk. So insurance is an arrangement of pooling of risk.
