Benchmarking Knowledge
Because we analyze approximately 4,000 data points — several times more than any other brokerage —you will know more about your risks
than ever before and can compare and contrast your results with those of your peers. Using inputs from broad data sources, we provide an
objective risk assessment score relative to comparable organizations and an estimation of the likelihood and severity of future securities class
action, which forms the basis for adjusting both insurance limits and retentions.
Our analytical insight is highly persuasive, objectively demonstrating to carriers the facts supporting your unique risk profile. Knowledge of
specific positive or negative risk factors means no surprises for senior management at underwriter meetings. And, it provides powerful
intelligence to facilitate underwriter negotiations to ensure you the best terms, conditions and pricing.

Claims Management Process
Blocking and Tackling Managing Expenses
Negotiating with Insurers Risk Prevention, Mitigation and Education
• Initial reporting of claims
• Analyzing reservation of rights
• Analyzing correspondence that evidence their view of
coverage
• Consulting with you as to the most appropriate form of
response
• Drafting response letters for your review and approval
• Gaining insurer approval of defense counsel & other
supporting experts you may choose to engage in the
defense of claims
• Monitoring the claim activity until it matures into a resolution
phase
• Closely track and monitor insurer payments for you
• Ensure that payments in accordance with the terms of the
policy are made timely and accurately
• Handle all defense expense issues with the insurers eliminating
unnecessary distraction and allowing you and your counsel
to exclusively focus on defending counsel rates
• Compliance with litigation guidelines/budgets
• Recognition of exhaustion of policy retentions and
appropriateness of deductions by insurers
• Challenge insurer positions ensuring that you are optimizing
your ability to obtain recoveries under the policy
• We are on your side. In the event of material coverage issues
or recalcitrant insurers, our objective is to bring the key
decision-makers, both on the claims and underwriting side if
necessary, to the table with the intent of supporting you in
the resolution of claims. That support is usually, but not
always, in the form of financial contributions; however, it is
always our goal to have someone from the insurer with
financial signing abilities available in the event of settlement
discussions including mediation or arbitration proceedings.
• We are prolific in the number of white papers we produce on
recent case decisions of impact for our clients including
changes in legal and regulatory requirements and claims
trends. We can research issues for you and produce a position
paper on a subject of concern or interest to you. One of our
fundamental tenets is that an ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure and so our mission is to reduce your
dependence on the commercial insurance market in any
area where you can produce greater results for your
company, employees and shareholders by preventing a
shock loss in the first place. Insurance, in our view, is no
panacea for the reputational and other damage that ensues
in the event of a major corporate governance and financial
scandal.

Data breaches have become more and more prevalent. Given the press surrounding the size of such
instances (the number of files breached and people affected), companies have begun to realize the
resulting costs can be staggering. Companies should not have to worry about whether their policy fully or
partially responds, it should be comprehensive, complete and not riddled with sub-limits.
Beecher Carlson has a proprietary Cyber Liability and Data Breach Response policy – CyberSelect™. The
policy is designed to offer the most comprehensive coverage available in the market and offers many
enhancements not typically available, such as:
• Eliminates the need to gain consent from the Insurer to hire legal experts, forensic accountants and
public relations consultants allowing a rapid response to a data breach
• Provides full policy limits for costs arising out of any regulatory investigation by any regulatory authority or
the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council including card company fines, penalties and
assessments, as well as credit card reissuance costs
• Includes Business Interruption and Extra Expense at full policy limits and extends coverage for
“contingent” business interruption and extra expense to the insured as a result of acts of third party
vendors
• Includes Media Liability coverage for all publications, including false advertising through electronic or
written means
• The ability to add professional liability to the coverage
• Primary limits available up to $50 million

Beecher Cyber Analytics Report
Beecher Carlson’s Cyber Analytics modeling takes into account the industry, the type of
information lost/breached and can also take into account the breadth of coverage under
the cyber insurance policies purchased to estimate probable maximum loss scenarios.
Information provided by the model includes:
• Probable maximum loss: provides an estimated maximum cost of a PII breach based
on the number and types of records held by the company
• Breach Estimates: provides estimates of the size and resulting expense of a breach
based upon a “1 in 200 company” breach event (note: this can be reset at other
levels at the Insured’s discretion)
• Information for contract negotiations: provides a tool to help Insureds negotiate
liquidated damages, indemnity and insurance provisions with vendor contracts
• Risk Register: a top cyber and tech risks as developed by Beecher with Northwestern
in a workshop or question format
The analytics report can be expanded to include:
• Vendor Management Tools: example language and guidance on requesting Cyber
and E&O insurance from third parties technology and related service providers

International Assessment
What is driving the need to address
the issue?
What is the exposure to client if a policy is not
procured?
Are there local regulatory/compulsory
requirements driving the need for purchase?
What insurance solutions are available?
Reasons Why Insureds Buy Local Policies:
• Premium and Tax Requirements
– Does premium have to be collected locally?
– Transparency in how and where premium is collected.
– Are taxes applicable?
– Will the local government assess any penalties and/or fines if a local
policy is not purchased?
– Is centralized or decentralized risk management philosophy followed?
– Presence of local leadership? Is a local Executive requesting a local
policy?
– Does the government or local contract require an insurance policy be
placed locally?
• Is non-admitted insurance accepted?
– Can the global policy service and make a payment locally if there is
a claim?
– I.E. If the master global policy cannot make a claim payment
locally and the parent company reimburses the local subsidiary,
does the parent company risk tax and penalty liability where it is
domiciled?

the quality and consistency of local service
Owned networks often carry minimum fees per country
that inflates broker’s compensation
Owned networks place higher priority on indigenous
income producing business
Data and information services are often offered subject
to additional user fees
Standard service levels established corporately with little
local flexibility allowed
Client Benefits vs Owned
Network Approach
Flexible Network structure allows you to work within or

Owned networks often require clients to work exclusively
within their network structure
Why companies value an
independent Network?
WBN firms have low management and employee
turnover due to corporate and network structure
Consistent level of client service on both a local and
global basis

Notes de l'éditeur
In thinking like an insurer we’re speaking to insureds who retain a large portion of their expected losses. Like an insurer they need to evaluate the cost of capital associated with various levels of retained risk in an effort to determine what should be retained and what should be transferred via risk financing.
That’s why we provide our clients with the analytical and operational tools that enable them to make educated decisions about the optimal program structure. The following slide provides more detail on the types of analytics utilized.
Key Commentary:
The starting point for our brokers begins with loss analysis. Each Beecher client has a designated actuarial team to provide the analyses you see here. For example, the Monte Carlo simulations allow our brokers and clients to evaluate the volatility and variability of expected losses among various retentions/deductibles evaluated. Additionally, collateral analysis provides us with credible negotiating tools around a key aspect of any large deductible program. Our brokers utilize scorecards measuring key performance indicators to assist in building the marketing plan and theme that will surround client renewals.
We will utilize actuarial tools to further evaluate programs proposed by underwriters to determine the most cost effective to our clients.
Through proprietary tools such as ZOOM and other enhanced claim management processes we focus on the areas that make up the majority of our clients cost of risk….their retained losses. We take this embedded insight into the marketplace to drive more favorable results with underwriters both on fixed cost and collateral.
What does this mean to our clients??
It means more favorable results in the marketplace with less reliance on current market trends. Rather than allowing the market to dictate results we drive the results.
Focus on overall result to date for our ZOOM clients.
