Abstract

S obzirom na iznimno dugu i bogatu povijest industrije osiguranja, može se reći da je riječ o jednoj od najvažnijih grana gospodarstva u zemljama diljem svijeta. U diplomskom radu će se definirati industrija osiguranja kroz najvažnije sudionike i pojmove u osiguranju te će se prikazati podjela osiguranja na životna i neživotna osiguranja. U sklopu neživotnih osiguranja definirat će se putno osiguranje i osiguranje od otkaza putovanja, ključne karakteristike i mogućnosti ugovaranja osiguranja od otkaza putovanja za putnike uz posredništvo putničkih agencija ili izravno s društvom za osiguranje u slučaju samostalne organizacije putovanja. Kod osiguranja od otkaza putovanja bit će potrebno istaknuti osigurane i neosigurane rizike u kojima ugovaratelj osiguranja ima pravo na naknadu štete, odnosno situacije u kojima ne ostvaruje to pravo. Spomenut će se i trenutno aktualna COVID-19 pandemija koja već sada ostavlja posljedice na sve segmente života ljudi diljem svijeta. Zbog velike gospodarske važnosti industrije osiguranja, cilj diplomskog rada je uvidjeti utjecaj i posljedice COVID-19 pandemije kao svojevrsne katastrofe na ekonomiju i društvo, turističke agencije i klijente te osiguranje od otkaza putovanja.
