Why AIG

Problem Solvers

Issue: The client, a manufacturer of produce processing equipment, was seeking coverage for equipment that it owns and  leases to operating companies around the world.

Solution: AIG provided coverage under a global program for the leased equipment.

Benefits: The insured benefitted from being covered under one global program, which included loss of rental income accruing for the leased equipment.

Creative Solutions

Issue: An insured motor carrier recently completed an acquisition of a logistics firm that had many existing contracts and property and warehouse exposures.

Solution: AIG utilized our personal property evaluation tools and logistical expertise in contract evaluation to put together a combined program for the insured and  the acquired firm.

Benefits: The insured benefitted from consistent deductible application across the program, as well as cross-docking sublimits, assuring seamless coverage across the entities and operations.

Claims Expertise

Issue: An insured construction company sustained a loss to a brand new excavator on a Friday. The loss was submitted by the insured three days later, indicating it was critical to have the unit inspected and repairs started.

Solution: The inspection was assigned to an AIG-approved heavy equipment appraiser the same morning it was submitted.

Benefits: The damaged unit was physically inspected the following day and  repairs were initiated to mitigate  the insured’s down time.
