Overview

Fixing an adequate indemnity period can be a challenging task.

Understanding how businesses can be affected in the event of a crisis without prior experience is fraught with difficulty and can lead to a significant exposure if an inadequate period is selected.

The lecture explores the drivers behind periods of interruption and business recovery using real life examples across the three key sectors of manufacturing, services and retail/leisure.

The aim is to arm those with responsibility for setting, reviewing or sanctioning indemnity periods with the knowledge and confidence to ensure adequate protection.

The lecture includes an interactive discussion to reinforce the understanding of the themes.
