Claims News Service, March 2, 2:33 p.m. EST — The Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter Society's March CPCU eJournal reported the results of a survey on prominent ethical issues facing the insurance industry, according to a recent release.

One of the study's findings, according to author Robert Cooper, was that New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer's publicized allegations of brokers and insurance companies' unethical conduct did not seem to have as negative an impact on the industry's ethical environment as anticipated.

The study included a two-page questionnaire mailed to 3,000 CPCUs in September. According to the results, nearly 95 percent of the responses to the survey were received from CPCUs involved in one of the four areas: underwriting, claims, marketing, and risk management.
