The correct answer by me is: Marine insurance is the oldest form of insurance known. Indeed, the institution of general average (q.v.), under which the participants in a maritime venture contribute to losses incurred by some for the benefit of all, may itself be looked on as a primitive form of self-insurance.Jan 3, 2022

The title of my answer is Marine insurance

The reference of my answer is Encyclopedia Britannica
