CPD Webinar: Financial Awareness for Account Executives and Account Handlers

This one-hour webinar provided by Alan Chandler, will provides a plain English overview for account executives and handlers on how to understand clients’ accounts and how an accountants figures differ from what insurers need.

Overview

Understanding clients’ accounts has never been more important for brokers and underwriters alike, with tremendous scrutiny now being put on clients' accounts, so account executives and account handlers along with underwriters will need to understand the main terminology.

The way accountants record financial information is often different from what insurers need and understanding the difference can help you ensure your clients get their sums insured right. This presentation looks to provide a plain English understanding of what is in a balance sheet, Profit and Loss account and a cash flow statement and how these can be read easily by non-accountants.

Learning Objectives

• the different component parts of a Balance Sheet and what a broker should look for.
• the different parts of a Profit and Loss Statement and what a broker should look for.
• what is a cash flow statement.
• How an accountant's figure for building, contents, stock and gross profit are not the same as we need for insurance.
