RISK MANAGEMENT & INSURANCE AUDITS
You receive assurance that your risk management program is up to current standards and benchmarks and that best practices are being followed.
The scope of services involved with a Program Audit typically includes:
-
Confer with management to learn about your organization's current risk management strategy, its tolerance for uncertainty, internal reporting relationships, loss history and its relationships with carriers and other service providers.
-
Conduct an on-site survey directed at identifying and analyzing exposures to loss or liability.
-
Scrutinize your property/casualty insurance portfolio for validity and correctness of all provisions; examine funded retentions, leases, trust or bond indentures and other documents of importance to risk planning.
-
Measure current risk management methods against the exposures identified in the survey.
-
Examine insurance expenditures for maximum cost effectiveness.
-
Prepare a comprehensive written report of our findings including comments and recommendations for improvement in your program.
CASE STUDIES
BMK Risk Management Consultants were engaged to perform a Risk Management and Insurance Audit for a large Informational Technology Company. We performed an in depth review of their global property program and discovered they were reporting over $60 million in Business Interruption values. Most if not all Technology Companies can not afford any "down" time and have to be up and running within hours therefore have a limited Business Interruption exposure to cover continuing expenses. We were able to reduce the Business Interruption values to $10 million resulting in over $80,000 in premium savings!
