Environmental Insurance - what it does and why its relevance is changing

Online
Tuesday, 04 July 2023
11:00 am – 12:00 pm (UK time)
    • Simon White, ESG Director, MX Underwriting

Environmental insurance has been around since the early 1990s, yet is still seen as a niche product. Despite the huge limitations in the Public Liability forms, it is still widely believed that its Sudden & Accidental cover is often enough. This webinar will help attendees to identify clients where a more comprehensive environmental solution may be needed, together with the key issues and how they could be managed through environmental insurance cover.
