Property and Casualty Insurance Concepts Simplified

The Ultimate "How to" Insurance Guide for Agents, Brokers, Underwriters, and Adjusters

De: Christopher J. Boggs

Narrado por: George Jack

This book details key property and casualty concepts rarely discussed or found in print; rather, they are often left to be "discovered" over time. These important concepts are now written down for all insurance practitioners to easily access.

Examples of the topics and concepts found in this book include rules for reading any insurance policy, why losses are excluded, contractual risk transfer, legal liability theories, "COPE" details, and the proper explanation of coinsurance concepts. Also included is a rather extensive glossary of insurance and insurance-related terms.

Listeners will gain a deeper understanding of insurance theories, be better prepared to explain insurance concepts to their clients, and develop a greater appreciation and understanding of the claims valuation process.

Too many references to visual material for my taste, but overall has some good information.

For my use case, I get audiobooks to listen to not to read material. There’s too many references to visual material for my taste and it can be hard to follow. For example I might listen to audiobooks while cooking, and I don’t plan to take out my phone to look at visual material during that. Also for my taste I would like more examples. I felt like this was like a list of facts a lot of times. The facts are generally good and I don’t regret getting this audiobook, but it was a bit dry I think as a result. The audio quality was good, and I felt like it was read pretty well.

new agent

I listen to this to help understand how P&C works.... the guy talks a like a lawyer, using descriptive words i didn't understand!

Great for new agents or people wanting to understand the insurance process a bit more

Don’t get me wrong this book is great. I was just thinking it was going to be more geared towards people trying to pass the P&C exam. I appreciated the clarification for the symbols in dealing with auto policies. However this book just goes over the basic concepts I’m assuming needed for infield writing and understanding how the system works. It doesn’t go over inland marine at all and just focuses on commercial as well as home insurance ( CGls and HO) I will be rereading again once I’m licensed :)
