Consumer Guides (C) Working Group
September 5, 2007

The Consumer Guides (C) Working Group met via conference call on September 5, 2007.

During the meeting the Working Group reviewed the August 8, 2007, draft of A Consumer’s Guide to Homeowners. After discussing content, layout, availability of the guide, and what purpose the guide should serve the Working Group decided to reformat and shorten the guide.

The guide is envisioned to be something that is easy to read, eye catching and informative. Important issues, such as, the need for insurance, how the premium is determined, important questions one should ask an agent, wind vs. flood and how deductibles apply will be included. Some of these issues will be described in a checklist format. Thought was also given to drafting a more detailed document that would supplement the guide that someone could reference should they choose to.

The Working Group plans to review a new draft of A Consumer’s Guide to Homeowners during an October conference call.

Action Items:

• Exposed an August 8, 2007, draft of A Consumer’s Guide to Homeowners.

• Scheduled a conference call in October.
