In general terms a certificate of currency should specify the:
• name(s) of the insured/alliance members;
• policy number;
• scope of cover-a description of acts and events that are covered;
• coverage period, including reporting period if appropriate;
• name of the insurer(s);
• limits of cover, including sublimits and aggregate cover;
• summary of the cover provided, important exclusions, excesses and similar items; and
• jurisdiction and territorial limits.
This list is very generic and is not intended to be exhaustive. Other policy details for the specific type of insurance should also be included, as required.
