Program Summary

Join us for an in-depth conversation about how contracting parties may agree to allocate risk via requirements for certain insurance coverage. We will provide an overview of several risk allocation techniques, explain several key insurance concepts and coverages, and examine samples of contractual insurance provisions.

Key topics to be discussed:

  • Risk transfer principles
  • Key types of insurance policies, along with common terms and exclusions
  • Options for one party to be an “additional insured” on the other’s policy
  • Claims management strategies
