POLICY STATEMENT OF ANTI-TRUST COMPLIANCE
The Chicago Underwriters Association (CUA) is a voluntary association of individual members. The object of the association is to advance the knowledge of sound underwriting of life and health insurance risks. CUA holds two full-day conferences per year in pursuit of this goal. We invite industry professionals to present to our members for their benefit and the benefit of the integrity of underwriting. Because of the nature of insurance – bringing together competitors for the purpose of discussing important facts and issues in life and health risk appraisal – CUA and its members must at all times be sensitive to both the spirit and letter of anti-trust laws, which broadly stated, prohibit any activities that might lessen or tend to lessen the desirable competition of the association constituents.
It is the policy of CUA to avoid all activities that could or might appear to violate any anti-trust law. CUA will not, through its programs, policies, or practices, suggest price fixing. Pricing suggestions that are prohibited include suggested extra rating or proposed business actions regarding individual applicants for insurance. “Price fixing” can be broadly interpreted, as any semblance of it must be avoided.
