Application Fraud: the forgotten frontline battle
The latest ABI statistics relating to insurance fraud show a rise in application fraud and the number of detected incidents far outweigh fraudulent claims. Yet, when we talk as an industry about fraud, the focus is all too often on claims and curiously application fraud is somewhat overshadowed. All insurance professionals are on the frontline in the battle against this scourge. This session will shed light on what the latest ABI statistics tell us, the duties we have in law at the application stage and how to identify and counter application fraud.

Sustainability & Insurance
ESG (or sustainability depending on your capacity for acronyms!) is a topic that has swept through the business community in recent years, but often the practicalities of how Environmental, Social and Governance considerations map into a business are less well explored. This session aims to discuss what ESG is, how it applies to the insurance industry and insurance professionals, as well as what can be expected in the coming few years in this space. KPMG, represented by Adam Creamore & Matt Hills, will give an overview of this relatively new area to give attendees a basic grounding of the key topics and an opportunity to discuss and ask questions. This event is free to CII / PFS members and non-members.
