CPD Webinar - The Risks Posed by Lithium Batteries
Join us for our March CPD Webinar on the the risks posed by lithium batteries
Lithium-ion batteries were first mass-produced in the early 1990s, and they are performing a key role in the move away from reliance upon fossil fuels. However, using lithium to store energy presents a new set of risks to property underwriters.
This session is designed to draw the underwriter’s and broker’s attention to these risks and why rating and wording alterations may be needed to counter this growing problem

CPD Webinar - The recent Ogden rate change and how it will reduce liability premiums
Join us for our February CPD Webinar on The Ogden rate.
The Ogden rate may sound an obscure thing, but it has massive implications both positively and negatively on liability settlements. All brokers, underwriters and claims staff should have a good understanding of the Ogden rate in order to explain rating changes to policyholders and understand why large liability claims will now be reducing.
The Ogden rate is used by courts to increase or decrease large personal injury liability claims. It was one of the main reasons why the market went so hard in recent years when the rate started loading liability settlements, and it will be one of the man reasons why we will now go into a softer market due to the fact it will start discounting liability settlements from 10 January 2025.
The Ogden rate will mean a happy new year for insurers. Will they be passing their savings onto their policyholders? well that will depend on how well brokers understand Ogden.
This presentation will be delivered by Alan Chandler, Chartered Insurer, one of the most popular presenters in the UK, and he will explain what the Ogden rate is and how it affects liability settlements.
Tue 04 Feb 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm
Alan Chandler,
