The Insurance Poverty Premium: what is it and what must insurers and brokers do right now?
>> Event Overview
The poverty premium results in the financial exclusion of people on low incomes and/or in vulnerable circumstances. With the issues of financial inclusion and fair value very high (and rightly so) on the FCA´s agenda, as well as the issue of the poverty premium in insurance receiving a great deal of parliamentary scrutiny, it is important that insurers and brokers understand what exactly the poverty premium is and what they must do right now!

By the end of the webinar, participants will be able to:
➢ understand the importance of financial inclusion and fair value and how this relates to the poverty premium
➢ recognise how the poverty premium in insurance impacts customers
➢ implement a strategy that recognises the impact of the poverty premium and to take steps to ensure fair value and financial inclusion
