The new rules being planned by supervisors in Mexico will require greater disclosure of the commissions that insurers pay brokers and agents to sell their products. Under new rules that will take affect from January 1, 2006, all policies will include a clause informing insurance buyers that they can ask the insurer how much the broker or agent was paid. Once notified, the insurer has 10 days to respond. At the same time insurers will have to disclose in their financial statements the brokers who receive contingent commissions, the type of contingent commission paid, and the amount of contingent commissions paid out as a percentage of premiums. Contingent commissions are fees paid to brokers by insurers in addition to direct commissions. Contingent commissions are based on the volume of business placed with an insurer. Since regulators in the US started looking into the abuse of contingent commissions, where some brokers have directed business to those insurers who pay the most, brokers have pledged to stop accepting them. The bulletin covering direct commissions is available for public comment on the website of federal agency Cofemer while the second bulletin dealing with contingent commissions will be posted shortly. Amis says it wants to introduce the new rules to prevent any potential legal problems that could arise over commission transparency.

Liabilities July 29, 2005 A federal court in Cleveland indicated Sunday that it will allow lawsuits
to go forward alleging that fumes from welding products caused workers
to develop Parkinson's disease, a debilitating neurological malady.
The situation raises the possibility of costly legal liabilities for
companies involved in making and distributing welding materials. Still,
any costs are unlikely to approach those from asbestos and defendants
will still be able to challenge any evidence purporting to link the
fumes and Parkinson's when individual lawsuits are heard. Companies
have long argued that it is hard to pinpoint the genesis of neurological
diseases such as Parkinson's, making it difficult for plaintiffs to
prove that these maladies were caused by manganese, a metal used in
rods and wires that has been recognized as unhealthy if its fumes are
inhaled. Among the big current and former producers of welding materials
being targeted in litigation are Lincoln Electric Holdings Inc. of Cleveland,
which is the largest maker of welding equipment and rods based on sales.
Also in focus are companies that distributed welding materials or were
big users, such as General Electric and Caterpillar. "It is definitely
a significant ruling," says Sigurd Sorenson, a lawyer at Clifford
Chance US LLP in New York who has defended companies that were involved
in asbestos and silica litigation. "Plaintiffs can make the argument
that there is a connection between fumes and Parkinson's, and that gives
plaintiffs a lot of leverage" to potentially pursue financial settlements.
Welding-fumes cases have become an issue in the legal community, with
lawyers placing ads to find workers with potential exposure. Plaintiffs'
attorneys say there are about 10,000 current suits alleging neurological
injuries from welding fumes and an estimated 500,000 or more workers
with current, or past, exposure to welding fumes. If the problems even
come close to those caused by asbestos, shares will suffer. Many companies
that had even remote dealings with asbestos have faced heavy legal liabilities
from suits related to alleged asbestos-related maladies. Sorenson and
other attorneys say it is unclear if any of the suits will ever prove
successful. Nonetheless, some investors following the cases have shown
some jitters. Some companies say they have insurance coverage that could
cover at least some of any litigation costs. Source: Wall Street Journal
