Strategic Car Insurance Management: A Financial Perspective
Sophisticated risk management in auto insurance requires more than basic price comparisons. High-net-worth individuals must prioritize liability coverage that aligns with their asset protection needs. State minimum coverage often proves inadequate, exposing policyholders to catastrophic financial judgments.
Personal Umbrella Policies (PUPs) become essential when net worth exceeds $200,000–$300,000, creating an additional LAYER of protection. Uninsured motorist coverage should be treated as non-negotiable in an era of widespread underinsurance. The calculus of physical damage coverage hinges on precise vehicle valuation – the 10% rule dictates dropping collision coverage when premiums exceed 10% of a car's actual cash value.
