Airmic conference 18 June 2014 Business Interruption:Potential changes to policy wordings
Hymn 5.6 Payments on Account ‘Joyfully shall the funds go forth to thee’
What is it?An effort to provide contract certaintyA Vehicle for changeNot an end in itself
How did we get here?- Responding to a Consensus - Content: an apparently diverse range of topics
Contract certainty – Terminology Example: Gross Profit- A commonly used term by accountants for several Centuries - A term with a precise technical meaning in insurance policies
Penance - Lobby For change (Brokers, Insurers, everybody) - Clarify the policy response even if wordings don’t/can’t change (eg letters of agreement)
