Nonconcurrent Apportionment Rules
Standards used to determine claims payments in cases of overlapping property/liability insurance coverage. At one time, each type of insurance had its own rules to govern claims where more than one policy provided coverage. In 1963, several property/casualty industry groups agreed on a set of principles to be used in apportioning claims among insurers.
