Work of Insurance Fraud Taskforce

This event will provide a general history as to why the government set this taskforce up, what the taskforce discovered and what it recommended. The event will discuss the government’s approach to the problem, the causes of fraud, what the insurance industry and others are doing to combat fraud, possible developments and what CII members can do.

A light buffet lunch and refreshments will be available from 12.15 with the seminar starting at 1p.m. for an hour.

At the end of this event, the delegate will be able to identify:
