Monthly insurance policy wording update
The Word, November 2023
30 November 2023
In November, we consider technological topics such as the Automated Vehicles Bill, cyber-attack modelling and artificial intelligence’s ability to understand insurance.
Delving into recent updates relevant to insurers, this month’s articles address the update to the PFAS exclusion, what the new Fixed Recoverable Costs regime means for insurers and the predicted upcoming risks for the life insurance sector.
We hope you enjoy this edition as much as we’ve enjoyed creating it.
