Insurance is as ancient as Babylon. The first policy dates back to 2100 B.C.; specifically, it is the Code of Hammurabi. A loan from a trader made certain his valuable cargo traveled safe from the harm of thieves or storms (Marples).

If you need money to purchase assets for your business, leasing offers an alternative to traditional debt financing. Rather than borrow money to purchase equipment, you rent the assets instead. Leasing typically takes one of two forms: Operating leases usually provide you with both the asset you would be borrowing money to purchase and a service contract over a period of time, which is usually significantly less than the actual useful life of the asset. That means lower monthly payments. If negotiated properly, the operating lease will contain a clause that gives you the right to cancel the lease with little or no penalty. The cancellation clause provides you with flexibility in the event that sales decline or the equipment leased becomes obsolete. Capital leases differ from operating leases in that they usually don't include any maintenance services, and they involve your use of the equipment over the asset's full useful life.

We encounter many economic risks throughout our day to day activities; whether the risk is a car accident, sickness, house fire, or even death.

As the merchants traveled across the Middle East and beyond they were at the mercy of the elements and man. The investors made loans for goods and would charge a "risk premium" to reflect the trips potential risk. The borrower would often post their belongings and family as collateral. In the event the cargo was lost or damaged their family and possessions could be sold to cover the debt (Bogardus and Moore).
