Reporting of Claims. The Client should carefully consider the policy claims notification provisions and any claims reporting instructions WTW provides. Failure to report a claim in a proper and timely manner may jeopardise coverage of the claim. In addition, the Client should retain copies of all insurance contracts and coverage documents as well as claims reporting instructions, as the Client may need to report claims after the termination of a contract, perhaps long after its expiry date. It is generally the case that claims may become unenforceable by way of legal proceedings (or in some jurisdictions, completely extinguished) if they are not pursued by legal proceedings commenced within the relevant limitation period applying in the jurisdiction in question. WTW is not a law firm and so does not advise on or monitor limitation periods applicable to the Client or its claims, and WTW will not commence legal proceedings or enter into standstill/tolling agreements in order to suspend the application of relevant limitation periods on the Client’s behalf. WTW recommends the Client takes legal advice on these issues and it remains the Client’s responsibility to understand and monitor the limitation periods applying to the Client’s claims and to commence legal proceedings in good time where this is necessary.
