  • Thu 17 Jul 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
    • David Hole ACII, Nick Thomas & Associates

A challenging class of insurance business for brokers relates to motor trade risks. Persuading many motor traders that they would benefit from a methodical approach to risk management is sometimes easier said than done. This workshop seeks to simplify the risk management process for busy motor traders who have not previously appreciated the benefits of focusing upon the risks they face nor the potential savings in insurance premiums that may result.

Webinar - Directors & Officers Insurance in a Nutshell

  • Tue 23 Sep 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
    • Alan Chandler

The webinar will explain the history of D&O and how the D&O marketplace is changing dramatically due to the economy. The sad fact is that many businesses will struggle badly over the next few years and lots of redundancies will have to be made. This will result in a sharp spike in both Directors and Officers and Employment Liability Practices claims. It should also be noted that many more directors are being sued in recent times individually and that the amount of HSE prosecutions have trebled against individual directors since 2015.

Online Event - How to Avoid Claim-Related Complaints

  • Thu 09 Oct 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
    • David Hole ACII, Nick Thomas & Associates

It will come as no surprise to learn that the vast majority of complaints stem from the handling of claims submitted to insurers. The claim is the “moment of truth” in the contract where the customer learns whether the premium paid over potentially a long period, has been well-spent. Whilst it is imperative to have a prompt resource and efficient process to deal with complaints, this workshop focuses upon proactively reducing their number through retaining the initiative whilst moving a claim towards fulfilment.
