Description

ISO offers more than 100 BAP endorsements. Out of this mass, most designed to meet the needs of a specific class of insured, there are at least three every insured should consider:

  • Employees as Insureds (CA 99 33);
  • Auto Loan/Lease Gap Coverage (CA 20 71); and
  • Rental Reimbursement (CA 99 23).

In this session we introduce and describe each of these important endorsements. 

Although effective since June 1981, the MCS-90 endorsement remains a highly misunderstood form. Apparent judicial misapplications of the intended meaning and purpose of the form have added to the confusion. 

The MCS-90 was designed to assure that an at-fault “for-hire” or public motor carrier could fulfill its financial responsibility to the public, regardless of the insured’s failure to comply with the underlying insurance policy’s terms and/or conditions. But it was not designed or intended to extend insurance protection to non-insureds or create coverage where none existed. 

However, wording in the form has caused courts to expand coverage – even though this was not the intent. 

In this session, we review the MCS-90, its purpose, the protection it provides and how it might be misapplied. 

Liquor liability insurance is designed first to defend the insured against charges of negligence related to the service of alcohol; and second to indemnify or pay on behalf of the insured if they are found legally liable. 

Operations serving or supplying alcohol can be subject to charges of negligence when, for example, a patron or third party is injured as a result of the negligent service of alcohol or negligence in not preventing an individual from injuring a third party. Legal liability can also arise out of other negligent actions or inactions.
