Analyzing Property/Casualty Insurance Policies and Their Key Provisions

Overview

Most insurance buyers don’t read their policies until after a loss occurs. Claims representatives, agents, and brokers should also conduct post-loss policy analysis to apply coverage or answer questions. Effective analysis requires understanding policy construction and interpretation, and matching client exposures with appropriate coverage. This course explains insurance policy nature, terms for different policy types, six possible components, and how to analyze a policy for specific loss coverage.
