Best's Underwriting Guide provides detailed descriptions and exclusive Underwriter's Checklists for nearly 580 commercial and industrial classifications---from adoption agencies to zoos. You'll quickly become familiar with every aspect of an industry and be able to evaluate exposure in all applicable lines of insurance---which is why Best's Underwriting Guide is the resource risk management professionals rely on to train new underwriters. Each report includes:
- A profile of the business or industry, to help you identify and analyze the risk of loss associated with an entity applying for an insurance policy---even if their line of business is unfamiliar to you.
- Best's Hazard Index, which quantifies the degree of exposure in applicable lines of insurance
- Underwriter's Checklists, detailing important considerations to make when evaluating an application for coverage
- SIC and NAICS codes
- OSHA standards
- Materials and equipment used
- Lines of liability to consider
Without Best's Underwriting Guide, you would have to contact the EPA, OSHA, industry trade associations, industry specialists, experienced underwriters and many others - or take your chances with what you can find on the Internet.
