Under which policy provision is an insured's right to recover for a loss from a third party
transferred to the insurance company?
Abandonment
,Pair or set clause
Subrogation
Arbitration
Correct Answer
A. Subrogation
Explanation
Answer C is correct. The Transfer of Rights of Recovery clause, also known as subrogation, gives
the insurance company the right to recover from a third party who was at fault for a loss, up to
the amount that the insurer has paid the insured for the loss. The abandonment provision
merely states that the insured cannot decide to surrender damaged property to the insurer in
return for full payment. (The acquisition of damaged property is at the option of the insurance
company.) The pair or set clause states that the settlement for damage to one item that is part
of a pair or set will be made with recognition of the reduction in value of the pair or set.
Arbitration is a means of settling claims disputes when the insured and the insurance company
disagree on the value of damaged property.
