International Insurance -- The DIC/DIL Policy

The "Naked" or Unsupported Difference In Conditions Policy©

Intermediate Course:   2 Credit Hours


Overview:  

International Insurance Coverage is a specialty coverage that protects the policyholder against specific claims and losses outside the United States & Canada.

This course builds upon the basic course and provides a more in-depth analysis of the exposures. It looks at the 'second level' of growth of a firm going international. It is for those companies who not only export products overseas, travel overseas, may have expatriates living overseas, may work on a U.S. Government Contact outside the U.S., but may have investments overseas. It is a non-admitted cover outside the United States and introduces several new terms such as Difference in Conditions [DIC] and Difference in Limits [DIL].
