Insurance
Insurance law is constantly evolving, and changes in financial supervision law are made with great frequency and follow one after another at a steady rate. In addition, the duty of care owed by insurers and insurance brokers is constantly expanding, and this duty of care is being increasingly shaped by financial supervision law. Furthermore, social developments have brought about the need for new insurance products, such as data and cybercrime insurance and insurance for self-propelled cars. And insured persons are increasingly asking questions about the coverage provided by these new insurance products.
Advice
Our knowledge extends beyond regular insurance products, such as fire insurance, business loss insurance and liability insurance; we can also assist you with questions about latest developments, such as the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD), Solvency II and Warranty & Indemnity Insurance.
