Insurance Giant A.I.G. Takes Ex-Chief to Court

18 June 2009 (nytimes.com)



The latest act in the drama of the American International Group opens Monday when the ailing insurance giant takes its former chief executive to court, accusing him of plundering a trust that it says was set up to pay top performers. A.I.G. contends Maurice R. Greenberg, 84, who ran the company for decades, unlawfully took $4.3 billion in stock in 2005, the year he was forced out as chief executive. Mr. Greenberg and his lawyers say that those A.I.G. shares — owned by Starr International, a privately held company, of which he is chairman — were not held in a trust at all. As Starr’s chairman, they say, Mr. Greenberg had the authority to sell the shares and invest the proceeds in new offshore insurance businesses and in a new charitable arm.

Congress Airs Concerns on Long-Term Care Insurance

18 June 2009 (nytimes.com)

As many as 7 million Americans have long-term care insurance policies, and many states confronting burgeoning deficits are urging consumers to buy this type of insurance as a way to protect Medicaid budgets. But at a recent Senate hearing, lawmakers and watchdog groups cautioned that greater consumer protections are needed. “There are no guarantees that the policies purchased today will serve your needs 20 to 30 years down the road,” Diane Rowland, executive vice president of the Kaiser Family Foundation, told the Senate Special Committee on Aging earlier this month. Consumers must balance premium affordability with the types of services they may want, the daily benefit amount, the length of coverage and other options, such as inflation protection. But personal needs and the marketplace can change in the decades between purchasing and using a policy, Ms. Rowland said.

The Local Insurance Agency Hustles in a Slump

22 April 2009 (nytimes.com)



WHILE the big insurance companies have been buffeted by the weak economy and investment losses, the industry’s front line, the insurance agencies, have generally been riding out the adversity. “This is a great business, because people always need insurance,” said Janet Jones, president of the Elkins Jones Insurance Agency in Los Angeles. “It’s just a question of who they buy it from.” “As the economy gets worse,” she added, “people need to feel they can hold on to their business, their home, their cars.”

Business Motor Insurance

If you think that at any time your vehicle could be used for business purposes, it is best to ensure you have the correct cover. Business auto insurance is vital for companies that use fleet vehicles. Such companies include delivery services, moving companies, sales companies and businesses which deliver goods to their clients or use their fleet to transport clients. It is imperative that you get all drivers of company vehicles listed on the policy, no matter what the cost of the premium. Some insurance companies will house all the business' insurance needs under one roof. A lot of companies will need medical, equipment and property damage coverage. If you are insuring your company's fleet with a specific insurance house, you can find out whether or not you will be able to obtain a package deal. It is important that the company is fully aware of the driving skills of the employees they list on their policies.

How To Buy Disability Insurance

When buying from an insurance company, do your research. Make sure you are dealing with a reputable company with a good track record in terms of providing insurance. You do not want to be scammed by a small company that collects insurance premiums only to end up being closed, and you can no longer refund your payments.

In preparation for your purchase of a disability insurance policy, first find out how much you will be needing for a year. Calculate your expenses. Picture a scenario where you are not able to earn income for six months to a year. Consider the things you are willing to forego such as cable TV subscriptions, regular movie dates and unnecessary expenses. Consider your expenses without these, and take note of the amount. Then calculate how much you will be getting from your company if you file for disability. Also check out other benefits from the government such as social security, if it will be available to you.

Saving for School - Insurance

In Singapore, tuition fees at the two universities are currently about $5,500 per year (except for dentistry and medicine courses that are more expensive). When it is your child's turn to enter university, this sum could have ballooned, with inflation and rises in fees. And if you send your child overseas, the bill, including school fees, living costs, air fares and other expenses, could amount to more than $60,000 a year.

Some parents regularly put aside a sum for their children's education, either into a savings account or a unit trust. Others expect to rely on their CPF savings which can be withdrawn under the Education Scheme. However, note that CPF funds can only be used for local studies and have to be repaid with interest within 10 years.

How to get Auto Loans for Students?

The students seeking auto loans fall into three categories, that is, the ones with good credit history, students with no credit history and the ones with a bad credit history. An auto loan is a credit creation for students who are eager to buy a car and are given the loan against specific interest rate conditions. The interest rates charged to students with good credit are the least in the above-mentioned categories of loan seekers. The auto loans are unsecured, if the price of the car is not very high, and are secured with the vehicle itself as the collateral, if the cost of the car is high.

Auto loans for students are available from showrooms and car dealers who sell cars, apart from the banks and financial institutions. It is expected that the students pay some amount as down payment and the rest is payed by loan. However, there are many schemes in which the down payment amount is also taken care of by the loan providers.

Don't drop dead without life insurance

So you have a nice job bringing in a nice income every month that is more than sufficient to pay the mortgage on the home, finance the couple of nice cars that you may have and the fancy boat that you may have purchased. There might still be plenty of money left to go out to high end restaurants and movies and other entertainment venues. All that is good and you should feel happy to have achieved all this in your career. But before you plan on the next expensive vacation or toy, look closely about your life insurance policy and if you even have one. Many people take life insurance very lightly and in casual passing. We are all mortal and every one of us has a limited life span, some fortunately longer than others. One must consider having sufficient life insurance to take care of the loved ones left behind.
