Dec 06, 2011 | by Christopher Allen | No Comments »

When it comes to insurance, most homeowners are concerned with coverage for the actual brick and mortar of our homes; but unfortunately, not many are aware that their home insurance liability might offer them the most amount of financial protection of their entire homeowners policies. Why? Because when a liability claim goes to court, the defendant usually winds up paying exorbitant sums in compensation, medical and legal costs. And it’s not uncommon for a defendant to go into deep debt and in the worst-case scenario, even lose his home.

Insuring Famous Rides: The Mystery Machine

Dec 04, 2011 | by Stephen Murphy | No Comments »

It’s a dark and foggy night, rife with mischief and mystery. You, your trusty Great Dane (no, not Shakespeare’s existentially distraught one), and your 3 best friends are wandering the cobwebbed halls of a reputedly haunted castle. Inevitably, as you round a particularly dark and spooky corner, a ghost materializes from behind the walls.

Recent economic turmoil in Europe has further exacerbated the delay and uncertainty of the implementation date of Solvency II, potentially creating a huge strain on companies during 2013, said Nick Dexter, a partner in KPMG’s UK operations.
Dexter offered a Solvency II update during KPMG’s 20th Annual Insurance Issues Conference in Toronto on Nov. 24.
The original implementation date of Jan. 31, 2012 has been pushed back to Jan. 31, 2013 and now there is talk of extending the deadline another year to Jan. 31, 2014, Dexter said.
“The impact of Solvency II in certain parts of Europe is going to dramatically increase the capital requirement [of insurers],” he said.

When I was researching this auto insurance blog, I posted to a question to my Facebook page: “Have you ever purchased a lemon? What did you do about it? What help were you able to get, from where, and from whom?”

The response I received? “Yes, I squeezed it into my water, it was good.”

While I was looking for some helpful advice about what to do with a dud of a car and how to minimize your losses if you wind up with one, I understand that sometimes the best way to deal with a problem is to laugh about it.

Unfortunately, it’s not that easy to deal with a car that turns out to be a lemon. It can be esp
