Throwing the spotlight on underinsurance, this report in Insurance Post reveals a recent improvement but overall, high levels are persisting. The report shows the average gap between the sums insured and what is actually needed leaves significant values uninsured. At Woodgate & Clark, we find that underinsurance can be a particular issue in High Net Worth claims. Insurers and brokers work hard to convey the risks, encouraging policyholders to notify their insurance provider if there is a change to the value of their home's contents and/or the property itself, during the lifetime of the policy, not just at renewal https://lnkd.in/eNwDRu6m #highnetworth #underinsurance #property

When deciding about your #insurance, it can be a balancing act deciding how much coverage to buy. Understandably, budgetary constraints may impact your coverage; however, it often doesn’t cost significantly more to get a higher protection limit or add an endorsement that broadens coverage. Few people will regret spending more on extra coverage when a claim occurs, preventing a sizeable out-of-pocket expenditure. Avoiding these common insurance mistakes will help ensure you have solid protection.

Inflation's impact on the insurance industry, especially homeowners insurance, is significant. Studies suggest that approximately $10 billion in homeowners premium goes unclaimed annually due to underinsurance. This shortfall is worsened by inflation, affecting carriers' profitability as reconstruction costs rise. Affluent and high-value homes face added pressure for premium materials and labor costs. Correcting insurance to-value is crucial to supporting both policyholders and insurers. By understanding complexities, we can foster a more resilient insurance industry. #oldiebutagoodie #insurance #riskmanagment #womenininsurance

1moIt’s a topic very close to my heart… I’ve taken business insurance, used the calculator given by the broker and spoke to the broker fully explaining the nature of the business, the policy was underwritten at the time so clearly consideration given to build costs and business, yet there is a question of underinsurance… now that I’m putting in a claim… there should be responsibility on the broker when an index linked policy has been in situ for some time to review. There MUST be accountability for people selling policies . Not all business owners are crooks which is very much how I feel treated !
