Flooding is a huge topic for UK insurers. Flood Re is now up and running but there is little appreciation of the next task they face which is to try and deliver a return to risk reflective pricing in a little over 20 years.

This event will review the historic approach to reinstatement of damage caused by floods, why this cannot continue and what better options are available. Also, the other key elements of improving the resilience of a property once flooded and how to mitigate the risk of being flooded in the first place are discussed. The event will be of interest to underwriters, claims handlers and brokers. This seminar is suitable for anyone who works in general insurance with a property element in their role
