Market Knowledge Matters Coverage Checklist Supporting Documentation to Risk Financing Breakout Session March 10, 2014 The enclosed Coverage Checklist is for illustration purposes only. It is not a legal contract nor is it a comprehensive listing of all coverage, terms, and conditions that a synagogue should consider when purchasing insurance. Although this is a tool that can be used to self-evaluate your insurance program, we recommend a licensed professional review your coverage for its sufficiency to your business operations. In providing this checklist to you, we take on no legal liability as an advisor to your synagogue. Presentation by: Matt Hayes, CIC 484.654.3392 direct 610.955.8992 mobile matth@sovinsurance.com
