Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
It is desirable to use the word insurer in preference to carrier or company since it is a functional word, applicable without ambiguity to all types of individuals or organizations performing the insurance function. Carrier or company is confusing, the former because of the use of the term in transportation and in insurance concerned with transportation, the latter because of its broad use to designate organizations who are often insureds. 5, record 3, English, - insurer
