The insurance premium earning of non-life insurance companies totaled to Rs 14.93 billion in the fiscal year 2015/16. The earnings reached Rs 19.18 billion in the fiscal year 2015/16.</p> <p>According to Insurance Board Director Rajuraman Poudel, only 12 percent of the total population of 29.05 million Nepalis have purchased life insurance policy.</p> <p>“Our target is to make insurance accessible to 25 percent of the population,” said Poudel, adding that the latest indicator including the increase in number of policy holders suggests that their target is not far away.</p> <p>According to Poudel, expansion of industries as well as increase in political and financial activities result in increase in the demand for insurance. Poudel expects the demand for insurance to grow in the coming days when the government invests in all 744 local units in the new federal set-up.</p> ', 'published' => true, 'created' => '2017-07-26', 'modified' => '2017-07-26', 'keywords' => '', 'description' => '', 'sortorder' => '6085', 'image' => null, 'article_date' => '2017-07-26 00:00:00', 'homepage' => false, 'breaking_news' => false, 'main_news' => true, 'in_scroller' => false, 'user_id' => '16' ) ), (int) 6 => array( 'Article' => array( 'id' => '6301', 'article_category_id' => '1', 'title' => 'NRB to Mop Up Liquidity', 'sub_title' => '', 'summary' => 'Nepal Rastra Bank has decided to mop up liquidity worth Rs 15 billion using financial instrument starting from July 26.
