  • 2019 Insurance Fact Book
    2019 Insurance Fact Book TO THE READER Imagine a world without insurance. Some might say, “So what?” or “Yes to that!” when reading the sentence above. And that’s understandable, given that often the best experience one can have with insurance is not to receive the benefits of the product at all, after a disaster or other loss. And others—who already have some understanding or even appreciation for insurance—might say it provides protection against financial aspects of a premature death, injury, loss of property, loss of earning power, legal liability or other unexpected expenses. All that is true. We are the financial first responders. But there is so much more. Insurance drives economic growth. It provides stability against risks. It encourages resilience. Recent disasters have demonstrated the vital role the industry plays in recovery—and that without insurance, the impact on individuals, businesses and communities can be devastating. As insurers, we know that even with all that we protect now, the coverage gap is still too big. We want to close that gap. That desire is reflected in changes to this year’s Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.)Insurance Fact Book. We have added new information on coastal storm surge risk and hail as well as reinsurance and the growing problem of marijuana and impaired driving. We have updated the section on litigiousness to include tort costs and compensation by state, and assignment of benefits litigation, a growing problem in Florida. As always, the book provides valuable information on: • World and U.S. catastrophes • Property/casualty and life/health insurance results and investments • Personal expenditures on auto and homeowners insurance • Major types of insurance losses, including vehicle accidents, homeowners claims, crime and workplace accidents • State auto insurance laws The I.I.I.

  • Overseas Motorcycle Travel Australian Travel Insurance Comparisons1
    OVERSEAS MOTORCYCLE TRAVEL AUSTRALIAN TRAVEL INSURANCE COMPARISONS1 Preface Getting effective travel insurance for motorcycle tours overseas is an issue often raised in motorcycling circles. With the seemingly ever-increasing number of motorcycle tour operators in the market – and the number and variety of tours available – the issue will continue to be a live one. This document looks at motorcycling conditions in the travel insurance policies of several insurance retailers. It may not include all retailers who offer policies attractive to motorcyclists but it covers the likely main players. While reasonable care has been taken to be accurate in setting out the relevant conditions, it must be emphasised that all conditions relating to motorcycling should be checked with the retailer and through the applicable Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) before taking out a policy. PDSs are constantly changing and being updated. Overview There is a wide variety of motorcycling conditions amongst both retailers and underwriters. Not surprisingly, there are many more retailers than underwriters; but retailers with the same underwriter can have varying conditions. Key issues relating to motorcycling include the engine capacity of the bike, requirements relating to licence and motorcycling gear, hirer insurance excess, personal liability and compensation for death or permanent disability. Many companies (i.e. retailers) limit their coverage of motorcycling to bikes of 200cc or 250cc engine capacity. In some of these case, there are no further details included in this paper about other conditions. Other conditions would need to be carefully checked in the applicable PDS if any of these companies were to be considered for travel insurance.
