The Cladding Legacy & the Changing Insurance Market
Do you know how to tackle the practical challenges posed by flammable cladding in past and future projects? Do you know enough about present conditions and future developments in the insurance industry? Join us on 17 October for the ACA Insight Webinar to learn more.
The insurance market is deteriorating globally, and it’s important to keep up to date with the changing nature of the industry. Insurance experts Laurence Gottleib from Planned Cover and Natasha Stojanovich from Lander & Rogers will explore the latest developments on a wide range of topics, including the following:
- The current state of the insurance market, including the impact on premiums and prevalence of cladding exclusions
- How to get the best result at insurance renewal
- How an architect’s past design is judged (legally)
- Available defences e.g. 'acceptable professional practice' / 'peer professional opinion'
- Practical tips – what should architects be doing in the current environment?
- The cladding legacy and problems with remedial design
- Challenges on the horizon
