4. RATING AND TERMS
Umbrella
1. GENERAL
UMBRELLA
1.1 It is common practice in the market to extend the liability cover to set limits and this product provides the extended limits to all Liability Sections as per the table below. This cover excludes Agri risks.
1.2 This Umbrella cover applies to all policies and premium must be paid by either a separate bordereaux or a separate column in the existing premium bordereaux.
2. UNDERSTAND THE RISK
2.1 There is not much to do in terms of underwriting the risk, however, special attention must be given to the list of declined risks noted below. If the policy is acceptable then this cover can be attached.
2.2 Keep in mind this section will follow the underlying cover provided.
3. UNDERWRITING THE RISK
3.1 The following procedure is suggested when issuing Umbrella cover:
3.1.1 The underlying policy limit must be reduced as indicated under point 4. Rating and terms.
3.1.2 Reduce the underlying policy premium by only the Umbrella premium as indicated. Since most claims occur within the first R1 000 000 limit, which is retained, the premium should not be reduced too drastically.
3.1.3 The Umbrella policy will increase cover from the limit in the schedule (as suggested in 3.1.1 above) up to R20 000 000 (twenty million rand). The limit of indemnity will therefore never be increased by R20 000 000 (twenty million rand), but increased up to R20 000 000 (twenty million rand).
3.2 Borderaux
3.2.1 The premium can be collected by the partner but paid over to Hollard on a separate bordereaux. The premium will be paid away to reinsurers.
3.2.2 If a separate bordereaux is not possible, add in an additional column to identify the Umbrella premium to enable accounts to transfer the premium to the correct internal divisional account.
