BIBA Schemes & Facilities webinar - Liability insurance in 2025: Market dynamics, legal shifts & broking opportunities

We will discuss the UK liability insurance market in 2025. As the world continues to evolve socially, economically, and technologically, so too does the landscape in which we operate as brokers, insurers, and risk advisors. In this session, we’ll explore the latest developments impacting liability insurance, from regulatory updates and claims trends to emerging risks and responses to new challenges such as ESG litigation, AI-driven exposures, and the continued expansion of the gig economy. We’ll also take a closer look at the current Ogden Rate, recent legislative changes including the implementation of Martyn’s Law, and the effects of market softening. We’ll highlight the opportunity for you to deliver real value by staying informed, thinking strategically and understanding the story behind each business,  positioning yourself as a trusted advisor in an increasingly complex world. This will be helpful for brokers looking to refresh their knowledge, sharpen their broking approach, or simply keep ahead of the curve, in relation to liability insurance

Learning objectives:

By the end of this webinar, delegates should be able to:

• Understand the 2025 factors influencing liability rating and how market softening impacts client negotiations.
• Appreciate the importance of contract reviews in today's legal and claims environment.
• Understand  knowledge on liability broking, including in the context of ESG and regulatory compliance.
