OVERVIEW AND TOPICS


What are the hidden issues of insuring 100+ year-old buildings bought for a fraction of what it would take to rebuild them? These buildings are often bought and insured by small business enterprises as a home to their business model and give little thought to the ramifications of sharing walls with their neighbors and the effect of their insurance choices (especially Replacement Cost vs Actual Cash Value) on their livelihood and business viability. Using 4 catastrophic losses in 4 years, participants will examine catastrophic preparedness and ancillary issues, such as: shared walls, OSHA involvement, line of sight, contractors, and weather after the weather event. They will discuss ancillary coverage considerations with debris removal, business income extra expense, ordinance and law, and more.
How do insurance professionals appropriately insure Main Street America’s real property with 100+ year-old buildings that are purchased for a few hundred thousand dollars and have a multi-million-dollar replacement cost estimator? In this session, participants discuss the built-in moral hazard and contemplate the appropriate property coverage form choice (Replacement Cost, Functional Replacement Cost, Actual Cash Value) and its effect on the insured’s exposures and viability of their business. Using 4 catastrophic losses in a 4-year period, they will examine the reasons why insurance professionals must insure to the catastrophic loss exposure and not be lulled to sleep by satisfactory partial loss settlements.
There are certain things every insurance producer should understand before writing commercial liability coverage for a client. What does bodily injury mean and does it include claims for emotional injury? What does the duty to defend in a CGL policy really mean and how does it work? What is the difference between subrogation and contribution, and how do our policies address waiver of subrogation? What are the possible coverage triggers under occurrence form policies, and how are costs allocated when multiple policy periods respond to a loss? How do claims made and claims made and reported policies work?
Certificates of Insurance and the related issue of Additional Insureds are often sources of frustration, confusion, and E&O claims for the insurance producer. In this session, agents will review critical things to consider before issuing a certificate and identify ways to avoid some of the common problems and errors. They will discuss Additional Insureds in-depth, how they work, and how coverage is limited, as well as some common problems that can arise. The course will review the most commonly used Additional Insured Endorsements and examine requests frequently made of agents that may be problematic.
