The purpose of the Insurance Industry Committee is to convene members in the insurance industry and those professionals (carriers and policy holders) involved in the industry to explore, develop and disseminate ways to effectively use mediation, arbitration and other processes for preventing and resolving disputes over insurance coverage or in which insurance affects the parties’ interests and conduct. As the successor to CPR’s Directors’ and Officers’ (D&O) Liability Insurance Group that was created to explore ways of incorporating mediation, arbitration and other ADR processes into the resolution of D&O matters, this committee has an expanded scope and plans to explore both programming and written products in support of its goals. CPR has long been a pioneer in seeking improvements to the resolution of insurance-related disputes going back to the provision of neutrals under the Wellington Agreement. Past works in the insurance area include Mediation Principles for Insurer-Insured Disputes and the CPR International Reinsurance Industry Dispute Resolution Protocol.
