Course description
You will review the nature of an underwriter’s work and the types of knowledge, skill and temperament an underwriter needs. Advanced Underwriting examines how these characteristics must be broadened and deepened to analyze the needs and loss experience of larger, more complex risks. You will be exposed to some more unusual or specialized lines of insurance. You will consider the broader perspective a more experienced underwriter needs in dealing with the legal and regulatory environment, manuscript wordings, alternative risk transfer, reinsurance and international risks.
