Understanding E&O Omissions – Online (Property & Casualty)

Errors and omission insurance covers liabilities for errors, mistakes, and negligence in the usual business activities. It does not, however, cover fraudulent behavior, punitive damages, or claims based on transactions for the personal account of a business professional. Considering the enormous exposure to liability of business professionals under the provisions of the broad liability laws, the importance of E&O insurance cannot be overstated. Take the purchase of E&O insurance seriously – it is one of the most important business decisions a professional will make.

Ohio - Annuities: Your Wealth Your Retirement – Online

Agents have difficulties in mastering the nuances of annuities. Stockbrokers and insurance representatives in banks have jumped onto the annuity bandwagon because their clients want to know about the products, but annuities differ in many ways from the purchase of a stock or a bank CD. Just as the annuity product learning curve is steep for the new agent, the comprehension curve for the interested buyer can be much more challenging. This course seeks to explain the inner workings of annuities in simple language and simple applications.
