Mobile Fraud Prevention Tips and Wells Fargo Offers Online - new 2011 Identity Fraud Survey

Mobile Fraud Prevention Tips and Wells Fargo Offers Online ; Wells Fargo & Company announced it has published a list of tips to help people keep fraud prevention top-of-mind as encouraging findings are released in the new 2011 Identity Fraud Survey Report from Javelin Strategy & Research, an independent industry research firm.

According to Wells Fargo, the study found that the number of reported identity fraud incidents in 2010 declined 28 percent over 2009.

"Wells Fargo has a long commitment of educating people about fraud and helping them protect themselves," said Secil Watson, senior VP, Wells Fargo Internet Services Group. "We offer tips, the Fraud Information Center, and we co-sponsor the Javelin Strategy & Research Identity Fraud Survey Report as part of this commitment. We'd like to see continued declines in reported fraud and we want to underscore the importance of people's continued vigilance in protecting their accounts and personal financial information."

According to Wells Fargo, the tips include, but are not limited to:

- Keep updated: Keep your computer operating system up-to-date to ensure the highest level of protection. Help protect your computers with regular anti-virus software updates.

- Change passwords: It's a good idea to regularly change your online banking passwords. Be sure your online banking username and password differ from those used on other websites.

- Use official apps: Mobile banking applications, or "apps," are programs you can download to your mobile device. To ensure the safety of your personal and account information, download mobile apps from reputable sources only. If you have suspicions about the authenticity of a mobile banking app, web-enabled mobile phone users can bookmark and visit the company's official mobile banking site, including wf.com.

- Go paperless and monitor: According to Javelin Strategy & Research, fraudsters continue to use traditional methods to gather information, including paper mail that may contain account numbers or other confidential information. Wells Fargo's multi-layered approach to online and mobile banking security makes going paperless - through bill pay and online statements - good alternatives to paper.

- Sign up for alerts: Keep a close watch on your finances to quickly spot suspicious activity. Wells Fargo offers many types of alerts, such as a low balance alert that tells you when your account balance falls below your chosen amount. Based on customer preferences, alerts can be sent through email or to a mobile device for quick notification. In addition, Wells Fargo Visa credit card customers can sign up for Rapid Alerts to be alerted near real-time when their cards are used.

- Review credit report: At least once a year, check your credit report for any suspicious or unauthorized activity.

- Be careful what you disclose: If you're suspicious about a request for your personal information that you've received through an email, text message, website, by mail or phone, first verify the request. Use a legitimate source to confirm the request by calling the number listed on the company's website, billing statement, or on the back of the debit or credit card. Never share your mother's maiden name, Social Security number, bank account numbers, or account usernames and passwords. Keep your phone number and home address private so they can't be collected.

- Store a copy of your personal & financial information in a secure location: Take a moment to inventory or photocopy the personal and financial information you carry in your purse or wallet, including items such as your driver's license and credit cards. Store this list in a secure location.

In addition to a layered security approach to online, mobile, and overall banking, Wells Fargo provides a variety of tools and services to help customers monitor their accounts and protect their information. Wells Fargo makes its Fraud Information Center available to everyone on wellsfargo.com.

Insurance wish list for budget 2011

Insurance wish list for budget 2011 ; The Government of India brought the finance reform bill in 2008 for the first time. However, this was thrown in the cold storage because of stiff opposition by the political parties and employees of major insurance companies.

Despite these oppositions, the insurance amendment bill will be pushed hard by the Government. There are other changes in the insurance amendment bill that will also be looked upon by regulators and insurance industries.

The Government & standing committee in finance have started discussion with insurers, bankers, and regulators on insurance reforms. This has given hope that the impending changes will be tabled in parliament in this budget session and implemented with clear direction.

Insurance business is a capital intensive business. The industry needs capital inflow on regular basis for its operational needs. Foreign direct investment and capital market are two major sources of capital in any industry. The insurance industry is looking forward to the budget 2012 with the hope that these sources of capital will be unleashed.

The biggest expectation of insurance industry is tabling of finance reform bill, more specifically insurance amendment bill, in the parliament in this budget session. Some of the specific expectations are as follows:

Increased limit on the foreign direct investment
Currently the cap on foreign direct investment in insurance sector is 26%. The insurance industry expects the Government to raise the cap on FDI to 49% to attract capital in this capital intensive sector as proposed in the insurance amendment bill.

Many insurance companies would like to invite foreign partners to raise their stake. At the same time, raising the cap to 49% will provide enough incentive to foreign companies to invest in Indian insurance sector. This will create required capital in the industry.

Allow Government owned insurance companies to enter capital market
The Government owned insurance companies are in need of fresh capital to expand further and the best way to do it is to tap the capital market. The Government is not in position to infuse fresh capital to the insurance companies. The expectation from the insurance amendment bill is that it will allow Government owned companies to raise money from capital market.

Clarity on pension reform bill
The other expectation is related to pension reform bill, also known as pension fund regulatory and development authority bill. This will facilitate new pension system, based on defined contribution, which is open to all Indian citizens.

LIC amendment bill
There is a bill named LIC amendment bill related to paid up capital required for state run insurer. As per the existing norm, the paid up capital requirement for state run insures is 5 crore. The industry expects this to be increased to 100 crore. This is the norm for private insurance players. The insurance industry expects uniformity in treatment of private and state run insurers in this regard.

IPO norms for insurance companies
The insurance sector also wishes to see the regulation for insurance companies for initial public offerings. All the big insurance companies have shown interest in tapping the capital market for expansion. The existing law requires an insurance company to be in the business for at least 10 years before it can go public to raise capital. This prevents many good companies from listing on stock market even though they can satisfy SEBI requirement for listing. The other requirement is that the insurance company has been earning profits for at least 3 years in order to float public issue.

The insurance sector will like these regulations to be deleted or reformed to fewer numbers of years. The insurance sector will further want the Government to list out clear norms for listing. As per IRDA, the listing norms will be finalized by the budget.

The insurance sector wishes to see some headway in initial public offerings for non-life insurers too.

Reduction in minimum capital requirement
Currently the minimum capital required to enter insurance business (life or general) is 100 crore. The insurance industry expects the required paid up capital for health insurer will be reduced to 50 crore so that more players can enter this sector. This will allow many smaller companies that can enter insurance sector, to start operation and tap the vast insurance market.

Creating a system like this will be of real benefit for people who develop diseases as a result of being exposed to asbestos or other dangerous substances.

Currently, because of the length of time between exposure to a chemical or asbestos and the development of diseases, it can be very difficult to trace who the insurer was at the time of exposure. This means that, in many cases, someone who contracts an work-related disease as a result of their employer’s negligence is unable to get the compensation they are entitled to.

Scots can weather the storm of price hikes on insurance

Scots can weather the storm of price hikes on insurance : INSURANCE claims doubled in December to £1.4 billion as the weather took its toll on our homes and cars. Burst pipes caused most problems, with more than 100,000 claims totalling £680 million, according to the latest figures from the Association of British Insurers. More than 250,000 vehicles were damaged as a result of the snow and ice on the roads, leading to £530m of claims. In all, this year's claims bill dwarfed last December's of £650m.

Anyone who suffered the Canadian-style blizzard in Glasgow on 6 December or the record arctic temperatures in the highlands in the same month will testify to this. However, the clouds that brought the snow may turn out to have a silver lining for Scots in the long run - thanks to insurance.

The same December that brought misery to many areas of Scotland was also the country's sunniest since 1929. So perhaps our dismay at recent meteorological traumas should be turned towards the way that forecasters describe and calculate weather events. The real problem is how these predictions are interpreted. Forecasters and insurance companies focus on "return periods" when considering the likelihood of major climatic events. They apply to floods, windstorms, snowfall and other elemental perils and estimate the length of the "normal" gap between events. In the case of floods, a 1-in-50 return period means that looking back over history, a flood of a certain size should only occur once every 50 years. Or, in any one year, there's a one-fiftieth chance it might happen again.

As many insurers sit at their desks scratching their heads at the impact of two winters in one - as we saw in December - there has been an obvious increase in the frequency of extreme weather events, across the UK.

While return periods are becoming narrower, the Scots, unlike England and Wales, have done a few sensible things with their planning and flood laws in recent times that should help the cost of their home insurance cover to become cheaper relative to the rest of the UK over time.

Two things stand out. Firstly, the requirements in Scottish planning laws that require a "belt and braces" approach to roofs. Quite simply, roofers will usually ensure every tile is double-nailed down. In England and Wales, on millions of homes only every third tile gets the nails! When storms wreak havoc more Scottish properties are better prepared. We secure the future of our homes by safeguarding their structure. Money invested in roofs, insulation, guttering and wall-tie maintenance will pay you back handsomely.

Secondly, flood planning and prevention. Scottish local authorities have a statutory obligation to take flood risk into account. They have a statutory duty to maintain water courses. They have Flood Liaison and Advice Groups and building regulations on flood resilience. All of these are lacking south of Hadrian's Wall.

Insurance bill founders in Mississippi

Insurance bill founders in Mississippi ; A bill that would have made it more difficult for Mississippi residents to avoid paying for car insurance failed to gain the votes needed to pass to the state senate for consideration.

According to the Sun Herald, House Bill 620 was rendered meaningless when opponents of the bill took several key provisions out of the legislation. By a vote of 63-55, the house ruled the bill went too far in allowing authorities to randomly check whether motorists have auto insurance, which would have been ascertained via computer database. The bill also wouldn't have allowed motorists to obtain their car tags without proving they were insured. The only thing that passed was the creation of the computer database.

Avoid car crash insurance scams

Avoid car crash insurance scams ; If the world were a perfect place, rush hour traffic reports in large cities would be non- existent. All drivers would follow the rules of the road and crashes would never happen. And the only car maintenance anyone would need to get would be to keep the oil changed and the tires rotated.

But the world isn't perfect, and unfortunately some drivers deliberately break the rules of the road in an attempt to create an insurance scam. Here are some of the types of fraud happening on the road, and ways you may be able to avoid them:

Plan for your family's future and types of insurance to consider

Plan for your family's future and types of insurance to consider ; You've probably given a great deal of thought to your family's future. Where will your children go to college? Where will they end up living? There are so many unknowns when it comes to the future and raising a family. Preparation is your best defense against the stress and worries that accompany thoughts of the unknown.

How do you prepare? Life insurance is the best way to see that your family's future will remain stable should something happen to you. Life insurance is all about protecting the future - not your own, but that of your family.

Portability of health insurance policies from July

Portability of health insurance policies from July : Mediclaim policy holders, who are not satisfied with the services of their existing insurance providers, will now be able to switch to another firm easily without any change in the premium outgo, the insurance regulator IRDA has said.

After examining various issues and hearing representations by consumer associations and policyholders, Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (IRDA) on Thursday said the portability of health insurance policies would come into effect from July 1.

"The Authority has examined various issues involved in the portability of health insurance plan and has issued necessary orders for effecting portability which will be implemented from July 01, 2011," IRDA said in a statement. The portability facility will allow policy holders to switch over to another insurance company with the same conditions.

"The accepting insurer shall provide cover, at least up to the sum assured in the previous insurance policy," the regulator said.

The new facility will also help those policy holders who stick to one insurer throughout life for fear of losing the cover for Pre Existing Diseases (PED). "It is essential to protect the policyholders against discontinuity and consequential loss of PED cover by making the health insurance plans portable across the insurance companies," Irda said.

In general, health insurance policies have specific exclusions for PED for a specified period of cover during the initial year, and policy holders do not get this cover in the event of changing insurance firm. It was considered "detrimental to competition".

Irda decision comes after it received several representations from consumer associations and policyholders for enabling portability of health insurance policies. Currently, IRDA allows portability of motor insurance policies.

The main features of portability are :

1. The credit from the period elapsed excluding PED shall be carried forward to the new insurer.
2. The accepting insurer shall provide cover, atleast upto the sum assured in the previous insurance policy.
3. The request for porting the policy shall be completed as per the timelines prescribed in the IRDA (Protection of Policyholders’ Interests) Regulations and guidelines.

Cold weather pushes up insurance rates

Cold weather pushes up insurance rates : There has been a steep increase in insurance claims in the UK due to cold weather.

The freezing weather in December resulted in claims of £1.4 billion over property and vehicle claims. In 2010, insurance companies paid less than £650,000 million in the cold weather season, but the December/January period was more severe, longer and affected more of the country.

Most of the problems were caused by burst pipes or damage to vehicles.

Frozen water pipes burst and cars crashed on icy roads.

youi Car insurance with a difference

youi Car insurance with a difference : Some car insurance companies make a lot of assumptions about you and your car usage. At Youi we don’t assume, we ask. We feel it’s important to understand you and how you use your car, so you only pay for car insurance that you need.

We believe the more we know, the fewer assumptions we need to make, the more accurate your car insurance premium will be, and therefore the more you should save. For example, if during the week you use your car less, or park in a secure area, you should pay less for your car insurance. Or if you’re a pilot, a stay at home parent, a retiree, or work from home and generally use your car less, you should also pay less for your car insurance. We believe fewer assumptions means a better understanding of you that should equate to lower car insurance premiums. read More...
