This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - The precise difference between appraisal (for disputes over loss amount) and arbitration (for disputes over coverage). - Why the appraisal process involves two appraisers and an umpire to reach a binding decision on value. - The critical rule of assignment: a policy cannot be transferred to another person without the insurer's written consent. - How a mortgagee or loss payee's right to a claim payment is fundamentally different from a full policy assignment. - Common exam traps, such as confusing loss payee rights with assignment or using appraisal for coverage disputes.
