Working with Insurance Companies
With values continuing to rise, art crisscrossing the globe with greater frequency, and the new reality of natural catastrophes occurring, the need for adequate insurance coverage is more important than ever to collectors, dealers and institutions. Insurers and appraisers have long enjoyed a symbiotic relationship, yet for many appraisal professionals, understanding and accessing the insurance world remains daunting.
In this members-only webinar, Mary Pontillo, DeWitt Stern/Risk Strategies and Rand Silver, AIG Private Client Group will unwrap the inner workings of the insurance industry and elucidate common terminology in an easy-to-understand discussion. Drawing on case studies, topics covered will include how insurance companies are organized, where the opportunities exist for appraisal work, and an in-depth exploration of the claim settlement process.
