Webinar: Priceless Or Underinsured? The Changing Landscape Of Jewellery

Priceless Or Underinsured? The Changing Landscape Of Jewellery 

Jewellery is such a wide category of asset – from pearls to precious stones, gold to platinum, rings to necklaces – and everything in between.   
A small number of items can very quickly outgrow the limits on a standard household policy and need to be separately specified – but if those items are years old, what should the specified value be?  
Underinsurance is an increasing risk, as clients don’t realise how much values have increased – the need to specify these items due to higher value is not recognised. 

This webinar is for:  
Brokers and insurers who insure jewellery for private clients (along with other asset classes such as watches, art and antiques) - - 
Claims handlers and loss adjusters who want to understand what to consider when jewellery is lost or damaged, and risks around valuations with which 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
