Ninth Circuit Interprets California Insurance Code to Require Payment of Interest on Life Insurance Benefits Only After a Claim Is Submitted
Roberts Disability Law Link to more items from this source
Jan. 3, 2022

"The Ninth Circuit ... explained that the interest does not accrue until the benefit becomes payable and a benefit only becomes payable after the submission of a claim in line with the terms of the life insurance policy.... [T]he court rejected Workman's argument that Dearborn breached its fiduciary duties under ERISA by retaining a profit on interest from the insured's policy benefit. The guaranteed benefit policy amount is the asset [of] the ERISA plan. Thus, an insurer's fiduciary duties extend only to the disposition of the guaranteed benefit." [Workman v. Dearborn National Life Insurance Company, No. 20-55182 (9th Cir. Dec. 29, 2021)]
