    Solution

    The FDI limit in insurance sector is currently 74%. A higher FDI limit would particularly benefit the long-term, capital-intensive life insurance business. Promoter companies need to continually invest to meet solvency requirements mandated by the regulator before the company starts generating profits. This means only deep-pocketed promoters can successfully enter and sustain operations in this sector.
