Preparing for Contracts and Contractual Risk Transfer
Length: 2 Hours
Contractual risk transfer is an important method for managing risk.

Additionally, properly written contracts set proper risk financing minimums to cover the costs of accepted risks. Developing proper contractual insurance requirements necessitates understanding the concepts surrounding contractual risk transfer.
