The webinar will briefly explain the history of D&O and how the D&O market place is changing dramatically due to the Covid-19 lockdown and its effect on the economy. The sad fact is that many businesses will struggle badly over the next few month and lots of redundancies will have to be made. This will result in a sharp spike in both Directors and Officers and Employment Liability Practices claims. The market will harden and that is why it is essential brokers have conversations with their clients now. It should also be noted that many more directors are being sued individually and also that the amount of HSE prosecutions have trebled against individual directors since 2015.

Over the last 30 years, few areas of the insurance market have seen such frequent and significant changes than that of personal injury claims. Various reforms have been introduced in attempts to tackle sensitive issues such as access to justice, fraud, legal fees and their effect on premium levels. Unsurprisingly these have generated strong feelings on all sides of the argument. The Civil Liability Act, now scheduled to take effect in April 2021, will introduce what are likely to be the most sweeping changes yet.

In this webinar, Jeff Heasman provided a strategy on how to communicate with customers in the current climate in a way that will reduce anxiety, provide clarity and keep the customer onboard.
