Title Insurance
Key benefits
DUAL’s solutions can include both title to real estate and title to shares. We can design solutions as a standalone product, or to interact with a W&I policy.
Up to 100% of the enterprise or gross development value can be covered, subject to capacity limits
Policies cover actual losses incurred by the insured and the costs of defending claims. This includes, for example, legal costs, demolition, alteration or reinstatement costs, wasted development costs and identified finance costs, all arising because of an insured event.
Active coverage throughout the ownership term and beyond
All our policies provide cover throughout the insured’s ownership of the real estate and/or the shares. Coverage can be extended to cover future purchases, banks as first loss payees and group companies.
Protection against unknown or specific risks
Title and share insurance provides cover for a wide range of issues that may impact the asset’s value. Policies can be designed to cover a variety of specific and unknown risks.
