With Gareth Horne (Partner – Sydney) Leah Hewish (Special Counsel) Chair: David Lee (Partner – Sydney)
Join Clyde & Co partner Gareth Horne and special counsel Leah Hewish as they discuss the financial impact on the insurance industry of the Australian COVID-19 business interruption (BI) insurance coverage test case decided by the Courts in 2022 and the widespread floods experienced across Australia.
Having represented insurers in the COVID-19 BI coverage test case, Gareth and Leah will provide insights from that decision, as well as the international experience, relevant to the financial and claims handling implications of COVID-19. They will also look at how that experience has influenced the industry’s response to other catastrophe events, including the 2022 Australian floods.
