What is a mutual insurance company?

Mutual insurance is a form of insurance voluntarily organized by some people who have the same needs and face the same risks, and it is also a form of insurance that pays compensation and shares risk losses in advance. This form of mutual assistance has existed in all kinds of mutual assistance and cooperation organizations with the purpose of economic compensation at all times and in all countries.

The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China's Decision on Several Issues Concerning the Establishment of a Socialist Market Economic System states: "Promote social mutual assistance and develop commercial insurance as a supplement to social insurance".

With the development of economy, it is necessary to supplement social insurance to meet the needs of different levels of society. This is employee mutual insurance and commercial insurance, which can be called the two pillars of social insurance.
