The English conflict of laws rules on “applicable law” to insurance contracts and the arbitration agreements that are often found in them have been affected by Brexit, the Supreme Court’s decision in Enka v Chubb and now the Arbitration Bill 2023. This talk attempts to summarise where we are now and look at what the future may hold.
Arguably one of the biggest FCA initiatives in recent times, the fast approaching new Consumer Duty is one of the latest regulatory developments the general insurance sector is grappling with. General insurers as manufacturers play a key role in ensuring good outcomes for ‘retail customers’, but many in the sector are still asking questions such as:
How is this any different from treating customers fairly?
- Aren’t we already compliant because we comply with the FCA’s rules on product oversight and governance introduced in October 2021?
In this session, DLA Piper Insurance Regulatory solicitors Matthew Hunter and Rhea Ingram-Smith will address these questions, and demystify some of the key areas of the Consumer Duty as it will affect general insurers.
