Programme Highlights

This two-day interactive workshop is designed to enhance the knowledge & competency of Insurers, Reinsurers, Brokers & Loss Adjusters on the practical aspects that are relevant when dealing and handling Machinery Breakdown insurances. A site visit to a manufacturing plant is planned as part of the program.

Case studies will be used to illustrate various aspects of policy coverage, risk exposures and claims. Typical MB losses generally involve turbines, pumps, motors, and engines. Such incidents trigger the insurance policy, and it is essential that industry practitioners appreciate how the coverage is provided.
