Webinar-At-A-Glance

Many businesses face contractual obligations to make the other party to a contract an insured under all or part of the business’s insurance program. How those obligations are imposed and met can make the difference between a successful and a disastrous business relationship.

The webinar will begin with a brief summary of what standard commercial general liability (CGL) additional insured endorsements do, and then move on to some of the most common nonstandard variations. Sooner or later, most insureds (or their agents/brokers) will face the problem of determining whether nonstandard endorsement language being offered by an insurer really provides the coverage called for in a contract. The webinar, which is designed for an intermediate to advanced audience, will look in detail at endorsements that broaden the coverage provided on a standard basis and those that may narrow coverage, sometimes to a level that exposes insureds to breach of contract claims.

Who Should Consider Purchasing

This webinar is designed with agents, brokers, and risk managers in mind, but will also be of value to underwriters, attorneys, and consultants.
