RE: RATES AND/OR FORMS UPDATE - STG Post-Policy Forgery Endorsement to 2021 ALTA Owner’s Policy

Dear Associates:

The STG Post-Policy Forgery Endorsement to the 2021 ALTA Owner’s Policy is now available for issuance with the 2021 ALTA Owner’s Policy if the property is an existing improved commercial property. You may issue this endorsement with the 2021 ALTA Owner’s Policy without any additional charge or premium, provided the land is not residential property and is improved commercial property, without any additional requirements.

This endorsement enhances the coverage of the Insured in the 2021 ALTA Owner’s Policy and may be issued only at the time of issuance of the 2021 ALTA Owner's Policy. 

This endorsement is not to be issued with any prior version of the ALTA Owner’s Policy, such as the 2006 ALTA Owner’s Policy nor is it to be issued with any of the ALTA Homeowner’s Policies, any Expanded Coverage Residential Policies, or any Loan Policy, such as the 2021 ALTA Loan Policy.
