Description

 Course Description:

Certificates of Insurance is a document that verifies your insurance for specific coverages and coverage limits with your insurance company's name for a stated period of time. It is one of the more high risk documents that pass between insureds, agents, insurors and third parties.   This webcast will discuss why 1 in approximately 25 E&O claims now involve a Certificate of Insurance because of failing to add or properly identify additional insureds or misrepresenting coverage on the certificate.  Join us to review:

  • The format and implications of Certificates of Insurance
  • E&O statistics and court cases involving the ineffective use of the Certificates of Insurance
  • The problem with Certificates of Insurance
  • How to implement solutions to the problem
  • Assess peripheral issues such as contractural risk transfer and additional insureds.
