The true cost of risk, not the price of the premium, is one of the most critical factors to consider when managing property and liability coverages.

What public entities need to know:

  • Many are under pressure to cut costs, public entities may be drawn to pay the lowest premium possible. However, immediate savings on a premium often leads to an elevated “total cost” due to uncovered claims or uninsured exposures related to specialty claims.
  • It is unlikely that any risk management program will be able to eliminate all claims against an actively operating local government entity.
  • As a result, developing a comprehensive risk management plan in order to reduce the total cost of risk to the public entity is crucial.
