PARISMAT:
THE INSURED’S INTEREST AT HEART
ACCOMPANYING INSUREDS, MANAGING AND SETTLING CLAIMS

Law and case law protective of the interests of the Assured, mainly through “All Risk” covers (exclusion must be proved by the insurer).
In case of disagreements, recourse is possible through mediation tools or arbitration mechanisms of the parties’ choice, or through a commercial judge.
Support throughout the duration of the contract by the various partners: insurers, insurance intermediaries, technical experts etc.
Should a claim arise, a predominant place is given to claim management and monitoring, with the support of an international network of Average Agents and claim specialists. In the case of a major claim, underwriters and related insurance intermediaries will work hand in hand with the Insured to ensure that the correct and most effective solutions are implemented.
Limiting the need for external claims management outside the insurer and intermediary, reduces accordingly additional costs and delays in the settlement of the claim which is beneficial for the Insured.
