How liability arises in tort
We sell many different liability insurance policies to customers every day; Motor, Employers Liability, Public Liability, Products liability, D&O, Professional Indemnity, Cyber Liability and more - what are we protecting the customers against, well it is largely being protected against being sued in the law of tort. Therefore, brokers, underwriters and claims staff alike should understand the law of tort, as failure to understand this means protections may be inadequate and a fair presentation of risk may not occur. This webinar, presented by Alan Chandler, one of the most popular presenters in the UK, will in Alan's usual plain English way provide an overview of the law of tort. This webinar will be suitable for brokers, underwriters and claims staff as well as anyone studying for MO5 insurance law.

CPD - Dealing with Vulnerable Clients
Vulnerability has become an important topic for any firm offering professional advice to individuals who may, as a result of their personal circumstances, be particularly disadvantaged when making key financial decisions. Thanks to the FCA and others, there is a reasonable supply of guidance with regard to the characteristics of vulnerability, and the impact . What is less clear is what exactly we are supposed to do when we have identified a potential problem. How do we record it, what can and can’t we say to the client and/or their families and what documentation should be in place both before and after vulnerability has been identified. The session will have a focus on Scots Law and FCA regulation but will be of interest to any one dealing with clients at a firm or individual level.
