From Canvas to Claim: An Introduction to Art for the Insurance Market

When disaster strikes, a policyholder is likely to turn to their broker and/or insurer for a solution – whether that’s a like-for-like replacement, something similar, a repair or simply a cash payout.

Who are the buyers of art – why and where do they buy, and is it a growing market? What should a broker or insurer bear in mind when putting a policy in place? For how much should it be insured? And what can a policyholder do proactively to manage their risk?

Who is it for?

This webinar is for:

• brokers and insurers who insure art or private and commercial clients, along with other asset classes (such as jewellery, watches and antiques)
• claims handlers and loss adjusters who want to understand what to look for in, and risks around, valuations with whch they may be presented
• compliance teams considering how to ensure clients and policyholders get the information they need to make informed decisions, and that they are treated fairly
