However, many people don&#8217;t understand that managing insurance claims is no simple task, especially when the claim is substantial and involves parties like international reinsurers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is where insurance brokers play a crucial role\u2014professionals who not only sell policies but also act as advisors, advocates, and bridges between the insured and the insurance company. One experienced and trusted company in this field is PT Liberty and General Insurance Broker (L&amp;G Insurance Broker), which for more than two decades has helped various companies in Indonesia resolve hundreds of insurance claims with optimal results.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article will take a deep look at how someone becomes an expert in insurance claims, why the broker profession requires special education and certification, and how experience and integrity are the main keys to success in the world of insurance.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Managing Insurance Claims Isn&#8217;t As Easy As It Seems<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many people think insurance claims are simply an administrative matter: report the incident, submit documents, and then wait for payment. However, the reality is much more complicated, especially when the claim value reaches billions of rupiah.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insurance companies won&#8217;t simply pay out large claims without going through a lengthy and rigorous verification process. This is because:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Large replacement values \u200b\u200boften involve foreign reinsurance parties.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A technical investigation by an independent expert (loss adjuster) is required.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It must be ensured that the loss is truly covered by the policy and does not violate any provisions.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A small error in understanding the policy terms and conditions can result in a claim being denied. For example, if the cause of the loss is not covered by the &#8220;perils insured,&#8221; or if the insured fails to comply with reporting obligations within the specified timeframe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In cases like this, insurance brokers act as expert advisors, ensuring all procedures, evidence, and claim documents are properly prepared from the outset. Brokers help insureds avoid costly errors that could lead to claim denials.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Strategic Role of Insurance Brokers in Claims Settlement<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike insurance agents who represent insurance companies, insurance brokers represent the insured (customers). Their role is not merely to sell policies, but also to act as professional advocates who fight for their clients&#8217; interests.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The functions of an insurance broker in claims include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Review the contents of the policy in depth to ensure that the risk is truly covered.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accompanying customers in every stage of the claim, starting from reporting, preparing documents, to negotiations with the insurance company.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coordinate with loss adjusters and assist in providing any technical data or clarifications required.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Connecting international insurers and reinsurers, especially in large claims.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensure claim payments are made on time and according to the agreed loss value.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Indonesia, PT Liberty and General Insurance Broker (L&amp;G) has become one of the most active brokers in handling large claims in the construction, mining, energy, logistics, and manufacturing sectors. L&amp;G not only understands the technical aspects but also has a digital claims management system that facilitates transparent monitoring of the claims process for customers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Education and Certification: The Foundation of the Insurance Broker Profession<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Becoming a professional insurance broker isn&#8217;t something you can do overnight. It requires intensive education, official certification, and extensive experience in the field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An insurance broker must master:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Risk management concept<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Types and scope of insurance policies<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Loss adjustment process<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Negotiation and communication techniques<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insurance regulations and laws<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To become a certified professional, a broker needs to have several international and national competency certifications, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>APAI (Indonesian Insurance Broker Expert)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This certification is awarded by the Indonesian Insurance and Reinsurance Brokers Association (ABAI).<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Proving that the holder understands the basics of insurance, OJK regulations, and broker professional ethics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>CIIB (Certified Indonesian Insurance and Reinsurance Broker)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a further level fromPATERNALCIIB holders are considered to have the capabilities of risk analysis, reinsurance placement, and complex claims settlement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>ANZIIF (Australian and New Zealand Institute of Insurance and Finance)<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">International certification recognized worldwide. Demonstrates professional competence in insurance, claims, and risk according to global standards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, in Indonesia there is also a national competency certification from the National Professional Certification Agency (BNSP) with the following levels:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Level 5: Basic technical competencies in the field of insurance brokerage.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Level 6: Managerial competencies and risk analysis.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Level 7: Strategic competency as an insurance broker manager or director.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reaching the highest professional level requires between three and five years of rigorous study and work. This process ensures that each broker is truly competent, ethical, and trustworthy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Experience: The Best Teacher in the World of Insurance Claims<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While education and certification are important, field experience remains the key to successful claims resolution. Each claim case has its own dynamics and challenges, depending on:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Policy type (property, liability, engineering, marine, etc.)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scale of loss<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Characteristics of the insured<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The insurance and reinsurance parties involved<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is where an experienced broker like L&amp;G Insurance Broker excels.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">L&amp;G has handled hundreds of claims across a wide range of industry sectors, from small claims to large claims worth tens of millions of dollars.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through this extensive experience, L&amp;G understands the mindset of insurance and reinsurance companies, knows how to construct strong technical arguments, and knows when to negotiate and when to press with legal or technical data.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Big Claims Are More Complicated and Riskier<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most striking difference between small and large claims is the scale of risk and the involvement of multiple parties.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Small claims (such as vehicle damage or loss of personal belongings) are usually resolved quickly. Sometimes, a personal relationship between the agent and the insurance company helps expedite the process.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Large claims, such as factory fires, heavy equipment breakdowns, or losses due to natural disasters, involve a great deal of technical and financial analysis.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In large claims, insurance companies typically:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Appoint a loss adjuster to assess the cause and extent of the loss.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Coordinate with international reinsurers as most of the risks have been transferred to them.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conduct document audits and investigations to ensure there is no element of negligence or violation of policy terms.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This process can take months or even years. Without the assistance of a broker who understands the legal and technical aspects, clients could lose the opportunity to obtain maximum compensation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Insurance Broker: Guardian of the Insured&#8217;s Interests<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main function of an insurance broker is not just to help purchase a policy, but to protect the insured&#8217;s rights from start to finish.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At every stage \u2014 from risk analysis, to selecting coverage, to the claims process \u2014 the broker acts as the client&#8217;s strategic partner.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The advantages of a professional broker such as L&amp;G Insurance Broker include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Has extensive relationships with international insurance and reinsurance companies.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Supported by the digital system \u201cLIGASYS Insurance Broking System\u201d to ensure the claims process is well monitored and documented.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Run by a team of experts certified by APAI, CIIB, ANZIIF, and BNSP Level 7.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Registered and supervised by the Financial Services Authority (OJK), with mandatory business reports every 4 months and minimum paid-up capital of IDR 5 billion according to regulations.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All of this is done to protect the interests of customers, so that they do not suffer losses due to claims being rejected or not being paid as expected.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why You Shouldn&#8217;t Buy Insurance Directly Without a Broker<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to various legal studies and industry reports, more than 90% of problematic claims cases originate from policies purchased directly or through agents.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, claims processed through a broker rarely have problems, because all the details of the guarantee have been carefully analyzed from the start.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Buying insurance directly may seem cheap, but cheap often means limited coverage.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once a large claim is made, it is realized that many risks are not covered.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Worse still, there is no one to help interpret the policy or fight for customer rights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With a broker, you don&#8217;t have to pay any additional fees. Brokers earn a formal commission from the insurance company.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if you only seek broker assistance after a claim has occurred, you will usually be charged a success fee of between 5\u201310% of the claim value \u2014 a substantial amount.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An Invaluable Protection Investment<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Becoming an insurance claims expert isn&#8217;t something you can do overnight.
