Marine insurance must be very important in the Gulf region as international trade is a major part of the GDP. I had to study marine insurance during my certification to work in General insurance sector ,but having a BANK CUSTOMER DATA BASE sold mostly health, auto and property insurance to the high net worth Individuals along with Mutual Funds and other bank products . In Chennai it must be warm and sunny. In Calcutta the North Indian Cold has not departed yet. Hope this answers your question .
