Key Provisions in the Insurance Contracts Act 1984 (Cth) and Takeaways from Recent Australian Insurance Cases

Join the FinPro and General Liability Claims Groups, in conjunction with Wotton + Kearney Australia, for an in-depth look at the Australian jurisdiction.

This in-person breakfast session is aimed at those handling claims or writing business in Australia and will consider:

• who you are contracting with and impact on the duty of disclosure
• remedies for breaches of duty of disclosure
• whether continuous cover overcomes any breaches of the duty of disclosure
• the consequences of providing a contractual right in the policy to notify circumstances that may give rise to a claim
• how important other insurance clauses are
• the order in which claims are made and how that impacts how deductibles are to be applied
• whether an insurer can really be charged interest for delays in paying claims.

Presentation: 9.30 – 10.30
