R.B. Jones is seeking risks that do not produce a frequency of claims since the cost of these claims generally erode the premium charged. Also, we see infrequent use of products, or exposure to an operation as favorable risk characteristics.

  • Risks that are expected to produce low to moderate claim costs. Single person/claimant injuries are more favorable.
  • Risks that have the following favorable characteristics (new ventures, small to moderate amounts of revenues or units of exposures, high unit counts, and infrequent use of a product or exposure to an operation) are good selections.
  • Specified product or operation coverage.

Both standard ISO and manuscripted endorsements are available to modify coverage. The importance of selection in the underwriting process is critical to insuring the success of the R.B. Jones program.

Favorable Risk Characteristics:

  • Predictable losses and determinable date of loss-no latency exposure
  • New ventures
  • Small to moderate amount of revenues or units of exposure
  • High unit cost
  • Infrequent use of products or exposure to operation/low public exposure
