CNA Risk Transfer Guidelines
As a result of doing business with contractors, subcontractors, vendors and consumers, insureds may unknowingly be agreeing to taking on someone else’s liability. Click below for two client use bulletins to help your clients reduce their exposure to loss. The third link is an internal document containing standard recommendations that we may offer to clients to help strengthen their program.

Avian Flu
“The avian flu makes headlines—on the nightly news, in the daily papers—seemingly in whatever news medium I select,” said Jan Frank, Executive Vice President, North American Field Operations, “which is why CNA wanted to increase awareness of this emerging issue. Click below for a white paper that presents an overview of the facts and provides links to other sources to keep you current on the evolution of this disease.

“After you read the white paper, feel free to share it with your family and clients. Also, tell them about the Act Now! Web site. This site is accessible to everyone and it’s where we share vital information about emergency preparedness and provide links to disaster recovery kits, home and work checklists, and directories of government services."

"If a disaster strikes, we want everyone to be in the best position possible to protect their families and resume normal business activities," says Bill Boyd, Senior Vice President, Risk Control. "CNA will continue to keep you abreast of emerging issues to help keep you, your family, business and customers informed."
