Professional Indemnity Insurance - How claims can arise

This presentation provides an overview of professional indemnity insurance. It looks at the main case law underpinning the PI market, why the PI market is expanding in terms of number of policyholders needing the cover yet at the same time the capacity is decreasing.

The webinar, presented by Alan Chandler, one of the most popular presenters in the UK, explores the problems posed by a claims made wording and the difficulty clients have going into retirement without adequate run off cover. The presentation also looks at ensuring the correct limits of indemnity are set.
