March 2017 Seminar

3 March 2017

9.30 am - 1.10pm

Our first seminar for 2017 took place on Friday 3 March 2017 at Deloitte's New Street Square offices. Topics under discussion included the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), a review of the new whistle blowing guidance, an underwriter's perspective of cyber risk and an update from the Good Practice Development Group.

  • General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Update

Vincent Rezzouk-Hammachi – Senior Manager, Data Protection and Data Management – Mazars

The new European data privacy framework applies to all businesses in all industries across the world, for data related to any European individual. The new requirements will have an important impact on insurance companies. This presentation will have a particular focus on the notion of consent, the opt-in/opt-out and the right of oblivion. Examples of business opportunities arising from these new regulatory challenges will also be provided

  • Whistleblowing – Update on the New Guidance

Annabel Mackay– Managing Associate, Addleshaw Goddard

Neville Cotton – Compliance Director, Addleshaw Goddard

Although whistleblowing mechanisms are not new, from September 2016, the FCA and PRA requirements changed. As a consequence, the FCA and the PRA will require a relevant firm to: put internal whistleblowing arrangement in place that are able to handle all types of disclosure, tell UK-based employees about the FCA and PRA whistleblowing services, inform the FCA if it loses an employment tribunal case with a whistleblower and present a report on whistleblowing to its board at least annually. This presentation will look at what the new obligations are and how auditors can respond to them.

  • Cyber Risk – An Underwriter’s Perspective

Paul Bantick – UK Focus Group Leader, Beazley

Paul will give us an underwriter’s approach to writing cyber, including things to look out for and accumulations both known and unknown.

  • GPDG Solvency II ORSA Process                                          

Rob Langridge – Audit Manager, Willis Towers Watson

Patience Ogunona – Internal Audit Manager – ERS Insurance

The Group will present an update on its ongoing project work.
