No policy of insurance against liability for compensation arising under this chapter shall be issued unless it contains the agreement of the insurer that it will promptly pay to the person entitled to it all benefits conferred by this chapter and all installments of the compensation that may be awarded or agreed upon, and that the obligation shall not be affected by any default in the giving of any notice required by such policy, or otherwise. This agreement shall be construed to be a direct promise by the insurer to the person entitled to compensation, enforceable in his name.
