Chapter 1: The Insurance And Reinsurance Market
What this chapter covers
Insurers, reinsurers, buyers, intermediaries, distribution channels, trade bodies, rating agencies and loss adjusters.
The BCP examination rewards precise classification. Start each topic by identifying the parties, the subject matter and the stage of the insurance lifecycle involved. A market-role question may concern the person who carries risk, arranges cover or investigates a loss. A legal-principle question may concern formation of the contract, disclosure, measurement of a claim or recovery after payment. A document question may concern application, temporary evidence, final wording, renewal or proof of loss. Keeping that context visible prevents a familiar term from being applied to the wrong relationship.
