LEGAL IMPLICATIONS OF REBATING OF COMMISSION
Rebating of commission means that the insurance intermediary gives part of his commission to his client, thus producing a “cheaper” premium for the latter. In most cases, this is a harmless and understandable gesture. However, if the practice occurs as an improper inducement for securing business, it is a grave matter.

II. Perform an independent investigation into the cause
III. Validate the extent of a reported loss

The public opinion of an insurer may easily be ruined if its claims handling is
I. Unjust
II. Unfair
III. Unreasonable
IV. Unduly slow
Claims are the insurer’s “shop window”: the public opinion of an insurer may easily be ruined if its claims handling is perceived to be unjust, unfair, unreasonable or unduly slow. Within reason, the payment of claims is the insurer’s best form of advertising.

What all need to be considered when premium is paid to insurance intermediaries?
I. Whether the premium payment to insurance intermediaries constitutes payment to the insurer
II. Whether insurance intermediaries has been authorized by the insurer
III. Whether insured authorize the insurance intermediary to make payment to the insurer
IV. The payment to the insurance intermediary need no verification.
Payment to insurance intermediaries: A question arises as to whether a premium payment made to an insurance intermediary constitutes payment to the insurer. It hinges upon on whose authority the payment has been received or paid. Was it the insurer who has given authority to the insurance intermediary to receive the payment? Did the insured authorize the insurance intermediary to make payment to the insurer? Of course, that provision of the Insurance Companies Ordinance which makes an insurer vicariously liable for the conduct of its appointed insurance agent in prescribed circumstances is relevant to these issues.

What are the limitations and exclusions for Theft insurance.
I. Warranties
II. Theft by staff
III. Fire damage
IV. Pro rate average will apply in any under-insurance situation.
Limitations and exclusions
(i) “Theft”: Under policy terms, there must be some breaking down of the security defences of the insured premises before any claim is payable. A customary limitation is that theft is only covered if accompanied by “forcible and violent entry to or exit from” the insured premises. Such an entry can be made by, say, damaging the lock on a door or smashing a window. Sometimes, a thief may enter, say, a department store as a customer, hide somewhere until it is close for business, and escape with stolen goods by force and violence to the doors or windows of the premises. (Note: insurers do not construe the phrase to include force and violence to people.)
(ii) Theft by staff: Theft by staff is a fidelity guarantee risk (see 1.4.6 below) and is excluded from the theft policy. Theft with the collusion of staff members is also not covered. (iii) Fire damage: It is not unknown for thieves to start a fire to destroy evidence of their theft. But damage by fire is excluded under the theft policy.
(iv) Average: Full value insurance is normally expected, so pro rata average will apply in any under-insurance situation.
(v) Warranties: It is quite common for theft policies on valuable property to be subject to warranties. Examples include requirements for specific security devices (types of lock, iron bars, etc.) and/or security measures (systems regarding keys, stock left in public view overnight, etc.). (A breach of warranty automatically discharges policy liability as from the date of the breach.)
