Mayhem Insurance Videos
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

This activity emphasizes identifying which type(s) of insurance are best used in which situations. It starts by showing a couple All State "Mayhem" commericals and having students identify which types of insurance that peril would need. From there, students are split into groups of 3-4 to create their own videos with assigned insurance types.

My famous line is always: My #1 requirement is that making your insurance videos does not require you to use your insurance (aka...nobody get injured or actually wreck anything!)

Risk Management for Enterprises and Individuals

This book is intended for the Risk Management and Insurance course where Risk Management is emphasized.

When we think of large risks, we often think in terms of natural hazards such as hurricanes, earthquakes or tornadoes Perhaps man-made disasters come to mind such as the terrorist attacks in the U.S. on September 11, 2001. Typically we have overlooked financial crises, such as the credit crisis of 2008. However, these types of man-made disasters have the potential to devastate the global marketplace. Losses in multiple trillions of dollars and in much human suffering and insecurity are already being totaled, and the global financial markets are collapsing as never before seen.

Risk management will be a major focal point of business and societal decision–making in the 21st century. A separate focused field of study, it draws on core knowledge bases from law, engineering, finance, economics, medicine, psychology, accounting, mathematics, statistics and other fields to create a holistic decision-making framework that is sustainable and value- enhancing. This is the subject of this book.
