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]. |
