Jane McCarthy, vice president of Liberty International Underwriters, talks about the basics of product recall, and why many buyers need it.

    Wow! You guys are brutal. Liberty has an excellent state-of-the-art products recall product offering and their underwriters are very knowledgeable and service oriented. The video was a few minutes long. Were you expected doctoral dissertation material? Sheesh!

    Liberty has not had an original idea in 80 years.
    They hire these AIG refugees and then go to market like it is new and different:”.
    All they have done is broaden coverage, and lower orices significantly to buy a market share. How typical

    All I’ve ever gotten from LIU is consistency (there’s an original idea!) in underwriting & price – and straight answers. Nothing at all like AIG or AIU, or Chartis, or whatever they’re calling themselves today.
