About This Course

While many financial services professionals advise their clients on tax, investment, and life insurance issues, far fewer venture to help in property and casualty insurance. Auto and homeowners' policies are mandatory products that everyone generally needs – yet they are also complex products.

This complexity raises questions in clients' minds: Are all my belongings covered under my policy? Do I have to adjust my policy if I want to let my neighbor borrow my car? Do I need an additional policy if I want to work as a rideshare driver? And will my premium go up when I move?

In this course, we will cover the fundamentals of auto and homeowners' policies. We will touch on these questions, explore basic coverages, and offer some guidance on what practitioners should cover with their clients in this area, so you can offer guidance and give them the peace of mind they need.

Who Should Attend:

Financial services professionals who want to gain a better understanding of auto and homeowners' insurance, so that they can better address client questions.
