Insurance management is a university function responsible for overseeing and administering all property, casualty and accident insurance policies, along with related claims. This encompasses insurable risks arising from all UBC operations, including people and associated assets. Records associated with insurance management include those supporting insurance coverage for UBC’s operations, as well as records associated with the placement of insurance policies, insurer information, and claim records for claims management. Records also include documents that provide evidence and protect the university and its insurers in potential claim events. Such documents consist of certificates of insurance issued by insurers to verify the university’s insurance protection and waivers.
