      B The insurer should compensate the insured for the actual financial loss suffered due to an unforeseen event or peril Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      D Only the loss caused by the peril covered in the insurance policy will be compensated Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Explanation: The principle of subrogation in insurance refers to the right of an insurer to step into the shoes of its insured and seek recovery or reimbursement from a third party who is responsible for causing the loss or damage. When an insurer pays a claim to its insured, it essentially acquires the rights of the insured against the responsible party.
