Shared Scotland Webinar, Part 1: Fairer Finance on Consumer Duty
The Consumer Duty is one of the biggest changes in financial services regulation for 20 years, and it is underpinned by behavioural science. Without behavioural science, the Consumer Duty would be almost unthinkable. The FCA now expects insurers to make good decisions easy for consumers, and bad decisions hard. In this interactive webinar Fairer Finance will cover how to evidence consumer understanding and fair value in an insurance context. Looking to continue the conversation? Join us at 1.00pm for Part 2, for a focussed panel discussion and live Q&A. Please note: Part 2 requires a separate booking for the access link.

How liability rates will significantly fall in 2025 due to the recent Ogden rate reduction - Highly Topical
The Ogden rate may sound an obscure thing, but it has massive implications both positively and negatively on liability settlements. All brokers, underwriters and claims staff should have a good understanding of the Ogden rate in order to explain rating changes to policyholders and understand why large liability claims will now be reducing. The Ogden rate is used by courts to increase or decrease large personal injury liability claims. It was one of the main reasons why the market went so hard in recent years when the rate started loading liability settlements, and it will be one of the man reasons why we will now go into a softer market due to the fact it will start discounting liability settlements from 10 January 2025. The Ogden rate will mean a happy new year for insurers. Will they be passing their savings onto their policyholders? well that will depend on how well brokers understand Ogden. This presentation will be delivered by Alan Chandler, Chartered Insurer, one of the most popular presenters in the UK, and he will explain what the Ogden rate is and how it affects liability settlements.
