Binder


A temporary oral or written insurance contract that provides coverage to the insured, serving as evidence of coverage prior to the issuance of a policy. The right of the agent to represent an insurance company in making a binder is called binding authority. While agents have binding authority, final authorization to issue a policy must come from the insurance company.
