Description

In this episode of Scandals: Insurance Uncovered, Amy Lamb and Teresa Guertin dive deep into the evolving world of Additional Insured (AI) endorsements, exploring howISO forms have changed over time and what that means for policyholders, risk managers, and legal entities.

Join us as we uncover:

• The history of AI endorsements: From the CG 20 10 11 85 to the latest editions.
• The shift from “arising out of” to “caused in whole or in part by”: What it really means for risk transfer.
• How case law (including Burlington and Hanover v. Philadelphia) has shaped the interpretation of AI language.
• The impact of contractual limitations in 04/13 and later editions andwhy your policy limits might not be what you think.
• Why manuscript endorsements can be a hidden trapand how to spot them.

From GCs enforcing strict AI requirements to subs navigating policy limitations, this episode sheds light on the gray areas of insurance coverage that often lead to litigation, confusion, and costly mistakes.

Don’t let insurance loopholes catch you off guard!
