Following on from the success of the 2007 and 2009 Liability symposiums, Lumley are once again holding the much anticipated ‘Your Edge’ event in 2011.

Set for 16th August 2011 at Sky City Auckland, this is the one-day symposium that addresses new and emerging trends and developments in liability insurance and should be pencilled into your diary now.

Clive Davidson, Lumley’s Liability COE manager says “The team are already working hard to create an impressive programme of hot liability topics delivered by some of the most dynamic experts in the business.”

The Your Edge event focuses on helping brokers increase their technical Liability knowledge and skills so that they can provide clients with the most up to date advice. It is a CPD points rated event.

CEO John Lyon says about the day, “This signature event allows us to demonstrate the full value Lumley offers the industry. We are very excited about being able to offer our key partners and supporters the opportunity to develop capability and knowledge in this important area.”

In 2009 over 500 brokers attended the event in Auckland and the programme featured a select group of respected industry leaders who provided valuable insight and advice on topics such as Professional Indemnity polices, Corporate Fraud, Employment issues, Health and Safety, and Technology risks.  To round off the day Brokers were entertained by a celebrity debate with the moot ‘Liability Insurance is a croc’ .Thankfully for everyone concerned the negative team came out on top!

Attendees commented about the event:

“It was an excellent symposium which made me as a younger member of the industry very motivated. The speakers brought relevant facts and knowledge to the table for us to address issues with clients.”

“A good opportunity to sit back and listen to experts in their fields all relevant to my day to day broking job. There is no one point that I could single out to improve on.  It was an event not to be missed and shows that Lumley are serious about being the leading liability provider.”

“The seminar yesterday was very good – excellent in fact. Lumley set a very high standard two years ago with their first Liability Symposium, but yesterday’s was better. Really great - any Broker that did not get anything out of this seminar should not be in the business.”

Your Edge has become one of the largest educational events on the insurance calendar and will no doubt be in great demand again in 2011.
