• Designed for power generators, the policy is an “All-Risk” format covering such perils as fire, flood, severe weather, terrorism, and mechanical/electrical failures.
• The policy pays for replacement cost, rather than depreciated value.
• There is no sharing of policy limits or deductibles, and the policies are non-assessable.
• The program is underwritten by a panel of “A”-rated insurance companies in London, Europe, and the U.S.A, reducing the risk of single carrier financial issues.
• A claims specialist is available to assist in the preparation of documents, quantification of the claim, and claim submission to underwriters.
• An asset appraisal service can be included (some restrictions apply).

• This program recovers the costs of poles, traffic lights, and other fixed assets damaged by automobiles. It recovers costs from the automobile insurance of the drivers at fault. There are no upfront costs to the utility. If the recovery is successful, the service provider normally keeps 20% of the recovered funds but through a special offer valid thru 12/31/19, Marsh USA is reducing the recovery rate to 15%.

• With very little cost to the utility, employees can choose to purchase additional coverage for dental, vision, disability, critical illness, cancer, hospital indemnity, accident, and whole life insurance. The benefits are 100 percent employee paid, with employer contribution strategies available. The program may be customized to fit employee’s needs. No health questions are required, no one is denied, and all products are portable.
