Insurance Act 2015 (on demand)

The webinar will focus on the pitfalls and dangers of the new Insurance Law; this can help your organisation respond to the new Duty of Fair Presentation part of this law.

TITLE

Insurance Act 2015.

SUMMARY

Non-compliance will make your policy void with huge financial consequences. How can one avoid that? Obviously, the insurer wants to get a clear picture of the risk details before acceptance. If you were the insurer, what information would you find essential before accepting those risks? This new mind-set for a clear information release to brokers and insurers is the key for compliance to this Duty. But how can it be implemented in an organisation?

We will show you recent examples of multimillion Euro write-offs to make it clear that even now the risk communication among project management, legal, finance and insurance departments is not always flawless. You will get practical guidelines for a new mind-set towards risk transfer and information requirements of insurers.
