NZILA/ICNZ Liability Insurance Discussion Group Webinar 

Date: 3 August 2022
Time: 10:00 am - 11:30 am
Location: Online

COFI is officially a reality. What might this mean for insurance sector conduct, ethics, data, the handling of consumers and information?

The Financial Markets (Conduct of Institutions) Amendment Act 2022 became law on 29 June 2022 (to phase-in from 2023). Meanwhile, the Protected Disclosures Act has also come into force, and MBIE reforms on Consumer Data Rights and Insurance Contracts lurch forward separately too. How insurers treat customers matters more than ever before, and data and systems are coming under scrutiny like never before.

Regulatory expert Gary Hughes of Britomart Chambers will talk about Misconduct, Licensing, Whistleblowing, Internal Investigations, and what the FMA might do on Enforcement.

Tech & data expert Andrew Dentice of Hudson Gavin Martin will talk about Commercialising Data – the Opportunities and Risks (including a look ahead to the proposed new Consumer Data Right)
