Questions & Answers about Wir prüfen den Anspruch bezüglich Ihrer Police.
Why do we use Ihrer Police instead of just Ihre Police?
The preposition bezüglich means "regarding" and requires the genitive case. Because Police is feminine (die Police), the formal possessive Ihre becomes Ihrer in the genitive.
Is Police just another word for the police force?
No, this is a tricky false friend! The police force is die Polizei. Die Police specifically means an insurance policy, and it is often pronounced with a slight French flair because it was borrowed from French.
Does Anspruch always mean an insurance "claim"?
In this specific business or insurance context, yes. More broadly, der Anspruch translates to a "right", "entitlement", or "demand". For example, Anspruch auf Urlaub means an "entitlement to vacation".
Could we use hinsichtlich instead of bezüglich in this sentence?
Yes, hinsichtlich (with regard to) also requires the genitive case and is perfectly interchangeable here: hinsichtlich Ihrer Police. Both are formal and very common in business correspondence.
