ITIC electronic communication survey
ITIC
The recent ITIC Claims Review highlighted some of the claims that the club has seen arising out of the use of email. The Claims
Review reported that to date ITIC has seen little overall increase in claims as a result of the use of email systems. It was,

not the dominant, system with which members communicate. The Claims Review therefore included a survey to ascertain if and
how the club’s members use email as a method of communication. The following is a brief analysis of the results of the survey.
