  3. C
    Signing a contract that shifts the liability for parking lot maintenance to an independent vendor
  4. D
    Installing an upgraded security camera system to deter shoplifting and minimize theft losses

Cevap

Choosing a policy with a deductible and establishing a savings account to self-fund minor incidents.
Retention occurs when a person or business assumes the financial responsibility for a loss. A deductible represents a portion of the risk retained by the insured before the insurer pays. Similarly, self-funding minor incidents through a dedicated savings account is a classic example of active, planned risk retention (self-insurance).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Define the concept of risk retention.
Retention means assuming the financial consequences of a loss, either entirely or partially.
Understanding the definition is required to identify the correct actions from the choices provided.
2
Evaluate each action against the STARR risk handling methods.
The deductible and the self-funding account both involve keeping the financial risk. The contract shifts the risk (Transfer), and the cameras lower the risk (Reduction).
This isolates the two actions that specifically represent retention rather than other mitigation tactics.
