Gibbs Laidler Annual Conference 2018
Gibbs Laidler 21st Anniversary
Since our formation in 1997 Gibbs Laidler Consulting has been providing independent advice and
assistance to housing associations from the largest to some of the smallest. The housing sector
continues to change and develop, with mergers, joint ventures, modular houses and activities where
the sector embraces to look after their various stakeholders.
With a constantly evolving sector the risks an association face are constantly changing but many risks
are the same as we faced back in 1997 when Gibbs Laidler was initially formed. However, in 1997
insurance premium tax was insignificant and Cyber was something associated with science fiction films.

09:30 - 09:45 Gibbs Laidler Review of Day 1
09:45 – 10:30 It Will Never Happen to Us, Cyber-
Attack and Data Breaches Happen to
Others
Lindsey Nelson - International Team Leader Cyber, CFC
Underwriting
Established in 1999, CFC was one of the first Lloyd’s backed
MGAs to underwrite cyber risk. Today, CFC has over 28,000
cyber clients in more than 20 countries globally.
With the growing threat of ransomware and Cyber Crime,
when a cyber incident occurs, it is essential that you have a
highly experienced team supporting you to help manage and
resolve the issue quickly and efficiently. At CFC, their expertise
consists of expert cyber incident responders and specialised
cyber claims handlers with a range of skills which allow them
to provide remarkable service before, during and after an
incident.
10:30 - 11:00 Tea and Coffee Break
11:00 - 11:45 We Have Insurance for Business
Interruption and Terrorism, Does That Mean
We Are Insured?
Mark Pierce - Head of Technical Services, Davies Loss
Adjusters
The four terrorist attacks of March 2017 meant that many businesses, retail outlets and offices were unable to trade or access their properties for what turned out to be more than a few days. Some misunderstood the insurance cover they had with their insurers and Pool Re. Many had no cover at all. For housing associations the inability to access head office may test the cover they think they have. Understanding how the cover works and planning ahead for the sad inevitability of more such events is key.
11:45 - 12:30 The Highways Act – Are you on the right
path or the wrong road
Clive Speed – Regional Claims Service Manager Zurich
Insurance
The Highways Act comes into effect in October 2018 and if you
are not prepared for the changes and the ability to defend slip
and trip claims you could be affected. The new regime requires
an integrated approach across not only your highways, which
will include footpaths, but with adjoining associations and local
authorities too. The ability to defend claims on the basis of
current inspection regimes and procedures may be limited.
As well as dealing with claims on behalf of housing
associations, local authorities and other Zurich clients, Clive
has also been on the working party looking at the new code of
conduct. Therefore he is ideally placed to share his knowledge
of the new act and how it may require changes to current
inspection regimes that associations use to defend claims.
12:30 – 14:00 Buffet Lunch (Kennet Room)
14:00 – 14:45 Disrepair...the New PPI
James Fawcett - Partner, Browne Jacobson
Victoria Curran - Associate, Browne Jacobson
From Newcastle to Cornwall associations are seeing increases in the number of reported disrepair incidents. There are signs that associations are being targeted as changes to the civil litigation landscape mean that Claimant solicitors are moving their focus away from personal injury claims to new areas. Disrepair claims are considered a primary focus and with associations bearing the brunt of that they will want to adopt a robust approach to dealing with the claims they are faced with.
Browne Jacobson is a full service national law firm offering expert legal advice to the insurance and public sectors, working alongside insurers, policyholders, brokers and public bodies.
14:45 – 15:30 The Fall Out - A Fire Brigade
Perspective…
Alan Penton - Managing Director, Belvidere Consultants
An incident such as Grenfell thankfully only happens once in a
generation but its effects will be continued to be felt in the way
fire risks are assessed. The role of the fire and rescue service
has also changed and following Grenfell may change again.
Belvidere Park Consultants provide a range of risk
management services including audit, critical review and fire
safety compliance. The service is provided by professionals
with extensive UK fire and rescue service experience. The team
has extensive private sector risk management experience, including fire engineering and professional advisor services to
organisations such as, Social Housing, The Peel Group (Media
City), The Health and Safety Executive, Bentley Motors and
The National Health Service.
