Managing the diverse risks in a University setting requires a strategic approach.
From the risk of damage to property, to health, wellbeing, and experience of staff and students both in the UK and internationally, there are many distinct challenges which require effective risk management and comprehensive insurance coverage.
To help to bring those complexities into focus and discuss some of the most pressing risk and insurance issues facing those in the Higher Education space, Griffiths & Armour hosted our annual ‘Higher Education – Risk Outlook, Underwriting and Surveys’ seminar in Leeds this November.
With attendees from a range of higher education establishments across the country, and expert speakers from Griffiths & Armour, PwC and AXA XL, the seminar touched on a diverse range of topics. From strategic risks facing the sector, property underwriting approach and effectively managing insurer surveys to a claims refresher and update, the morning was packed with useful information, expert insight and provided an opportunity for attendees to put their own questions to experts in the field.
Nick Fitzgerald, Client Services Director at Griffiths & Armour commented,
“The Griffiths & Armour Higher Education Seminar is an opportunity to come together and discuss topical issues in the University sector. The environment creates the opportunity to hear from well informed speakers and to openly discuss solutions to relevant risk issues in a collaborative and lively forum. The morning was a great success, and I’d like to thank our guest speakers and those clients and prospects who attended for their time and contributions to an insightful and informative day.”
