COURSE CODE:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>LAW 6410<\/p>\n TITLE:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>ADVANCED INSURANCE LAW<\/p>\n CREDITS:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>6 COURSE<\/p>\n DESCRIPTION:\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Insurance is an increasingly important tool for the management of risk by both private and public enterprises. This course, at an advanced level, is intended to introduce students to the theoretical and practical challenges that face the Insurance Companies or the business of insurance in the Commonwealth Caribbean.<\/p>\n The course traces the historical development of Insurance Law to current trends and challenges facing the Insurance Industry in general and in particular the Commonwealth Caribbean. The course also examines the practical difficulties of companies which engage in \u201cinsurance business\u201d as a part of the enterprise but without registering under the relevant Insurance Act thereby escaping the rigours of Insurance legislations and presenting obvious problems for regulators.<\/p>\n The course also examines such theoretical problems encountered by insurance law as:<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. The application of the basic principles of contract formation to Insurance Contracts; and<\/p>\n 2. The issue of misrepresentation and non-disclosure.<\/p>\n In addition the course examines principles of insurance law in the context of specific types of insurance including life, indemnity and third party insurance. Other topics covered are insurable interest, the status of the beneficiary, subrogation (double insurance and contribution), policy interpretation, the claims process and the role of the insurance broker.<\/p>\n ASSESSMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n LECTURER:<\/strong><\/p>\n FOR FEES\u00a0INFORMATION:<\/strong><\/p>\n DURATION<\/strong><\/p>\n LECTURE TIME<\/strong><\/p>\n For More Information, Contact<\/strong> [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_text=”Apply Now” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_button=”on” button_text_size=”1.4em” button_text_color=”#2E3143″ button_bg_color=”#ffffff” button_border_width=”0px” button_border_color=”RGBA(255,255,255,0)” button_font=”||||||||” button_icon=”||fa||900″ button_icon_color=”#0259A3″ button_on_hover=”off” custom_padding=”0px|0px|0px|0px|true|true” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” button_bg_color__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” button_bg_color__hover=”” button_bg_enable_color__hover=”off” transform_styles__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_scale__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_translate__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_rotate__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_skew__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_origin__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_scale__hover=”101%|101%” button_text_size__hover=”1.5em” button_text_size__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" COURSE CODE:\u00a0LAW 6410 TITLE:\u00a0ADVANCED INSURANCE LAW CREDITS:\u00a06 COURSE DESCRIPTION:\u00a0Insurance is an increasingly important tool for the management of risk by both private and public enterprises.
