When does fine art and specie respond?

A valuable is stolen, damaged in transit or lost in a fire beyond the property policy's sub-limit.

Which industries usually carry fine art and specie?

None of the twenty industry classes lists it as usual; it is bought for a specific exposure.

What does the register compute for a fine art and specie line?

The deductible retained per claim and, with a claims count, per year; the limit less the deductible the insurer carries; the premium as a share of the limit; and the three-year loss ratio where claims paid are given. Flags where the limit was never claimed against, the rate on line is far above the schedule median, or the retention sits below the claims frequency.
