Claims Inflation

Over the last 12 months we've all seen a rise in the cost of living as the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has increased.

A number of factors have led to this increase including higher energy prices and the cost of transport-relates factors such as fuel. Strong global demand, supply chain issues and shipping costs have also added to price pressures.

Here we look at how these factors are influencing the claims trends we're seeing and the impact of claims costs as a result.

By the end of this session, participants will:-

  • Understand the reasons for increases in claims costs
  • Have discussed practical measures to mitigate the impact of cost increases

It is relevant to general insurance brokers/intermediaries, their insurers, and any other market participants. Joining instructions will be sent out shortly before the Zoom webinar begins and all
participants will receive a copy of the presentation after the talk.
