open mortgage clause

A mortgage clause that does not protect the mortgagee if the insured mortgagor does something to invalidate the policy (such as committing fraud).

• This type of clause has been largely superseded by the mortgage-loss clause, which affords the mortgagee more protection.

— Also termed simple mortgage clause. Cf. MORTGAGE-LOSS CLAUSE.
