RIMS, Ernst & Young Launch Risk Insights

The Risk and Insurance Management Society (RIMS) and Ernst & Young present Risk Insights, a series of articles that provide insight into various risk management and insurance-related issues. The white paper series is available at no cost as a benefit to RIMS members.

“RIMS is pleased to work with Ernst & Young on these publications that are intended to help RIMS members stay on the cutting edge of the rapidly evolving risk management discipline,” says W. Michael McDonald, member of RIMS board of directors and vice president of risk management at Quality Distribution, Inc.

This first issue of Risk Insights, “Proving Your Insurance Claim,” focuses on the complexities of proving a company’s claim from catastrophic loss. The article explores common elements of the process and offers suggestions for successfully proving claims and expediting the recovery process.

Future white papers in the series will cover topics such as “Getting Out From Behind the Desk—The RIMS Professional Growth Model,” “Global Property and Business Interruption Claims” and “Enterprise Risk Management—What ‘They’ Are Not Telling You,” among others.

“We are honored to work with RIMS to develop these informative reports for its members,” says Allen Melton, partner and Americas practice peader at Ernst & Young’s Insurance Claims Services practice. “It is our goal that each issue of Risk Insights provides readers with new ideas to address the most relevant issues and challenges facing the risk community today.”

The first issue of Risk Insights is available to RIMS members at www.RIMS.org/RiskInsights.
