INLAND MARINE
Property that is mobile in nature has been traditionally handled on these types of policies. A wide variety of forms and coverages has been developed to handle the needs of this property.
Accounts Receivable (CM0066)
This coverage is used to reimburse you for customer accounts that are rendered uncollectible because of loss by a covered peril. Back to top
Accounts Receivable - Reporting Form
Since the value of your accounts receivable fluctuate from month to month, the most economical method of providing this coverage is on a Reporting Form. A deposit premium is collected based on the average of your month end accounts receivable balances during the last 12
months. You will report the balance at the end of each month during this year's policy period. These reported values will then be averaged at the end of the policy year and a premium adjustment will be made at that time. Back to top
