Configure the Perils

An Insurance Peril, or condition - for example earthquake, car accident, tornados, theft, death, or disability, informs about the type of coverage for a particular insurance product, or product item (coverage). The Insurance Product Factory allows you to define perils independently from products, so that they can be used in conjunction with multiple insurance products. Depending on your insurance product, you can attach one or multiple perils, or conditions to it.
