Il “corrispondente” è la Società nominata da un assicuratore estero per la gestione dei sinistri provocati in Italia dai propri assicurati.
Per poter acquisire la qualifica di corrispondente è necessario disporre di alcuni requisiti da sottoporre all’UCI e sottoscrivere una Convenzione per la gestione dei sinistri Carta Verde.
Il corrispondente è scelto dall’Impresa estera che, tramite il proprio Bureau, richiede all’UCI l’approvazione della sua nomina.
I rapporti tra Impresa e corrispondente si svolgono in piena autonomia e sono regolabili con contratti specifici purché non contrastino con la normativa italiana, con la Convenzione sottoscritta con l’UCI e con l’Internal Regulations.
L’affidamento delle pratiche di risarcimento danni avviene quindi in accordo alla nomina approvata.
