Why the need for Specialized Industry Focused Training Programme on Emerging Risks and Liability Insurance?

In the last 20 years, profile of Indian economy has changed from basic industry and we are seeing large growth in Servicing Industry, as a result, it has become a significant player in the growth of Indian economy. IT, e-commerce, exports, project exports, acquisition of companies in foreign countries by Indian Companies or inflow of PE, VC Funding from foreign investors in Indian companies especially in Pharma, IT and e-commerce is resulting in changes in Board Room and the way in which risk is perceived and handled. These changes have ever resulted in the need for Insurance Policies as a part of Shareholders agreement being signed between Indian Promoters & Strategic Investors or PE/VC funds.

Increase in the exports of Pharma Products, Automobiles, Fully Assembled Engines and Automobile Parts in the recent years has resulted in need for Product Liability Insurance as due to quality complaint or need for recall there can be heavy liability on the Indian Manufacturers or Exporters.

We come across need for buying of D & OE insurance Policy or 3rd party liability insurance policy as a requirement clearly recorded in shareholders’ agreement. Now a day’s 3rd party liability insurance policy is required by RWA or owner of the building for getting license from Government authorities in Haryana for issuing license for operating lifts in Multistory towers.
