About the session:

It is estimated that at least 60% of policies have incorrect sums insured! This presentation looks at the major issue of under insurance in the UK property market and why sums insured are often so wrong.

The presentation, delivered by Alan Chandler one of the UK's most popular insurance presenters, will look at what clients actually need to take into account when settling Buildings, Contents and Stock sums insured. Alan will explore why under insurance is so common, the effects of under insurance for the client, and why under insurance is an increasing cause of Professional Indemnity claims against brokers.

One of the problems is that the figures on the client’s balance sheet are not the same as those required for insurance purposes and Alan will point out the differences so that clients can be warned.

Learning objectives:

Following this presentation the delegates will be able to:

  • Understand what needs to be taken into account in respect of Buildings, Contents and Stock Sums Insured.
  • Understand why there is a difference between the figures for accounting purposes and the figures for insurance purposes.
  • Understand the effects of under insurance for clients and how to aid them in mitigating their exposure to under insurance.
