[摘要]本文所涉案例中,由于续保前后的免责条款不同引发纠纷,最后终因保险公司不能举证证明其已履行说明义务而败诉。作为保险公司,为避免日后产生纠纷,在投保单中设计投保人声明的方式作为履行条款明确说明义务的证据之一,有其合理性。在签署投保人声明的同时,还应要求投保人对所涉保险条款进行签字确认,以避免条款变更造成不必要的举证困难。 [关键词]除外责任;举证责任;保险条款 [中图分类号] D922.284 [文献标识码] A [文章编号]1004-3306(2006)12-0076-02 Abstract: The case in point is related to the dispute arising out of the difference of exclusion provisions in insurance contracts before and after policy renewal. The insurer lost the case in the end for it failed to produce favorable evidence that it had properly performed the declaration obligation. The insurer is justified to integrate in product design the requirement of applicant statement to avoid future disputes. It should require the applicant to confirm the insurance contract concerned by signing on it to avoid the difficulty of onus of proof due to contract change. Key words:excluded liability; onus of proof; insurance provisions
