Trends in the Surplus Lines Industry
Let's face it. Hard markets come and soft markets go, but no matter how loose or tight the underwriting guidelines get, there will always be risks that the standard market will look at and reject. They are too out of the box, too new, or too far from their underwriting appetite. Effective use of the surplus lines marketplace can increase revenues and assist in retaining key clients.

Rental Car Insurance Horror Stories
There are close to two million rental cars in the U.S. People rent these cars, seldom with a thought about insurance coverages. Coverage questions about rental cars have to rank in the "top 10" questions customers ask. Probably the top question is whether to spend around $30 a day for the loss damage waiver, which you will see is not a "rip off" and can save customers a lot of money and problems after a rental car is damaged. Join us as David Thompson helps us with these questions and more.

Cannabis Claims: A Look at Coverage
There are more areas in the country where cannabis is legal than not, yet with it being considered a controlled substance by the federal government and with varying levels of legality in each state, the insurance issues can be complex.

Join us as Chantal Roberts brings us this session to expand our understanding of these potential issues.
