Washington likes acronyms when it comes to lawmaking and this new law is no exception. This is the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) and this November sees it finally come into force. Because it affects both employers and the insurance industry, this has been a hard-fought change and was only signed into law last year. Now it should prevent you from obvious discrimination. Sadly, it does not rule out discrimination by backdoor means. If an employer overhears you talking at the water cooler or routinely surveys local news including the obituaries, it is legal to use this information. But, overall, you should find some improvement. It covers two different situations with the same type of result. Firstly, it prohibits employers from asking you to go through a genetic test or making genetic information the basis of deciding whether to hire, promote or fire you. Secondly, it prohibits insurers from testing or demanding genetic information about you or your family in deciding whether to offer you coverage, in setting the premium rate and level of the deductible, or continue the cover. more…
A group representing the insurance regulators has been meeting over the last few days. There have been a number of issues on their agenda, but the most interesting has been whether to adopt a policy for every state to require its local insurance companies to offer pay-as-you-drive policies. These policies have a simple purpose. If motorists drive less, there’s a reduction in the level of greenhouse gas emissions. This is a good thing because it will cut down on the overall damage to the environment. No matter what you believe about climate change, this will improve the health of the many who suffer from skin allergies and asthma caused by the pollution. The insurance companies therefore reduce the premiums for those who drive less. Not only is this environmentally responsible, it’s also good business sense. Lowering premiums attracts more business, but if these drivers reduce the number of miles they drive a year, their risk profile is lower. They should be involved in fewer accidents. This becomes a way of reducing premiums but maintaining profitability. more…
Some of you have probably heard of universal policies used for insuring life. What are they all about and what benefits do universal policies bring to their holders? Well, simply put, universal insurance polices are insurance products that provide coverage for a person’s entire life.
Universal insurance policies are a form of whole life products that most of you are quite common with. Term insurance policies provide coverage only for a specified period of time, whether permanent policies require you to pay premiums for the entire life and respectively provides coverage for as long as you live. It is important to understand this difference, because universal policies can be regarded as a combination of term insurance with some of the investment options provided only with whole life policies. more…
When dealing with a car insurance company or agent, never expect the whole truth. Whether they are trying to boost their commission or just sweet-talking you, it’s rarely in their interests to tell you the full story. Always remember what they don’t tell you is probably the thing that could save you money. Things like this:
1. Cancel the collision premium if your car is old.
If your car is 7/8 years old and worth less than $2,500, it’s likely your excess is close to the value of your car. So why pay for comp and collision premiums? A major collision will probably write your car off anyway so it’s wasted money.
2. Don’t use the same company for both home and car insurance
Unlike many bundle deals available today such as broadband internet and TV, it is rarely cheaper to bundle your home and car insurance. While many companies offer great deals on either type of cover, they rarely offer great deals on both. Unless you buy an umbrella policy, a bit of research is likely to show keeping your policies separate will return better savings. more…
The modern society has very strong litigious mechanisms and dynamics. And small businesses risk facing professional liability that will more likely end their existence than in case of big enterprises. However, the majority of small business owners do not think much about developing a reliable insurance portfolio for their enterprises, which would provide protection and risk assessment to the right extent. And that’s certainly not the best strategy for those who want their businesses to grow and develop well.
Building up an insurance portfolio
Don’t expect to find a universal solution for small businesses, as there’s no such thing as one-size-fits-all insurance portfolio for small enterprises. You will have to personally adjust and tailor your insurance policy in order to make sure your insurance needs are met to the right extent, combining numerous insurance products into a single portfolio. A typical insurance policy for small businesses is likely to include the following elements: more…
Perhaps it’s the wrong way to think about life insurance, but it’s really nothing more than a form of licensed gambling. You find this insurance company prepared to take you on and then place a bet on how long you are going to live. The insurance companies studies the form guide and decides how long people like you tend to live. It sets the premium and the jackpot number. If you die within the first few years, your family are big winners. They hit the jackpot for just a few premium instalments. But if you live far longer than expected, the insurance company wins big because it has the use of all your money during your lifetime and only pays back the sum agreed. That’s one of the interesting things about inflation. What looks a big number now may be peanuts in fifty years time. That’s why buying a policy with a fixed benefit is such an interesting bet. more…
Occupation plays a very important role in a person’s life. What we do for living pretty much determines our entire lifestyle and delivers certain risks to deal with everyday. If you’re working with toxic substances on a daily basis, you have a type of risk that haul drivers for example are very uncommon with. The same goes for any other high-risk job that has special circumstances posing danger to your health and life. And of course, if your occupation has a higher degree of risk in average, you are likely to pay more for insuring your life. Risk and insurance rates are connected directly, which means the safer your job the lower premiums you’ll have to pay. more…
The one thing most likely to impress your insurance company is that you have taken a number of simple steps to reduce the risk of a burglar entering your home. The result? A reduction in the premium is guaranteed. This can be relatively minor things like deadlocks on the doors or, if there are real risks of robbery or kidnapping, the more expensive installation of a panic room. As with all decisions, it’s a balance between the costs of the work and the benefits in the reduction of premiums. Finally, even if you cannot afford a full alarm system, there are cheap ways of protecting your property. more…
Once, the world was simple. If there were two opposites like either/or and day/night, it was easy to treat them as different and act accordingly. Then along came the idea of equality and some opposites were judged the same when it came to the treatment they deserved. At least, it’s now politically incorrect to suggest men and women should be treated differently. So the law imposes rules to prevent discrimination on the ground of sex (or gender if that is also different). Except that, when it comes to insurance, there are some very good reasons for treating men and women differently. Although the law may have changed, there are some fixed biological and cultural roles that seem permanently attached to women. We may now vote, own property and pursue our own careers, but we give birth and are expected to raise a family with the possibility of becoming a carer for elderly parents. In juggling between all these conflicting demands on our time, it’s easy to drop the ball of financial planning. more…
