The General Insurance Code of Practice was extensively revised after the 2003 Canberra bushfires, but not enough, say the critics. The latest issue of Insurance News (the magazine) features a wide-ranging examination of the code, the official reports criticising it and the industry’s reaction.

We also examine the likely public float of major broker group Steadfast and examine the impacts it could have on the local broker market.

We show what a key facts sheet may look like, why sport is a great way for insurance companies to get noticed, and how a major loss adjuster’s innovation could change the way claims are routinely handled.

From piracy insurance to Lloyd’s growth in Asia, this issue again illustrates why Insurance News (the magazine) is the region’s fastest-growing and most popular insurance industry print publication. Subscribers can expect it to hit their mailboxes over the next week.
