The International Insurance Law Association will hold its first Asia-Pacific Insurance Conference in Singapore from October 18-20.

Catastrophe modelling in Asia, the duty of utmost good faith, cyber simulation and business interruption, and regional initiatives for regulatory integration are among the topics.

The Australian Insurance Law Association (AILA) says the conference provides a timely opportunity to discuss issues relevant to the region.

National President Angus Kench says the international association can “harness and crystallise legal thought and opinion that everyone in the insurance community can use in their daily activities”.
