Event insurance covers terrorism. (ASAE Benefit).

The ASAE-sponsored Showstoppers Event Cancellation Insurance program, offered through the Gulf Insurance Group and Aon Association Services, has recently been revised to become the only major association event-cancellation insurance policy to include terrorism coverage. The policy complements the Association Office Package and the Association Directors' and Officers' Liability programs already available through Aon Association Services and sponsored by ASAE.

"Showstoppers Event Cancellation Insurance protects associations from financial liability related to cancelled or interrupted meetings, conferences, conventions, or exhibitions," says Dixie Arthur, executive vice president and chief operating officer of ASAE Services Inc., the for-profit subsidiary of ASAE. "With the addition of terrorism coverage and the ability to custom tailor coverage to fit an event, Showstoppers could very well be the single most important insurance policy an association purchases in any given year." For more information about the program, contact Aon's Eileen Hoffman at 202-862-5333. Information about all three ASAE/Aon insurance programs is also available at www.asae-aon.com.
