Cevap
The director provides the premium payment and the representations made on the application, and the insurer provides the promise to indemnify against covered future losses.
In an insurance contract, consideration represents the mutual exchange of value. The applicant's consideration is twofold: the payment of the initial premium and the statements (representations) made on the application. The insurer's consideration is its legally binding promise to pay out for covered claims in the future.
