Record turnout at insurance seminar

-

WRIGHT Insurance Brokers saw a record turnout at the company’s annual Haulage Insurance Seminar which was held in Wexford over the weekend.

The seminar coincided with the Irish Road Haulage Associatio­n Conference, also sponsored by Wright Insurance Brokers, and was attended by over 350 operators from the Transport sector.

The company has a record of not shying away from discussing challenges and highlighti­ng the key insurance issues facing the industry, taking the view that forewarned is forearmed. The recent 2017 seminar content continued in this open style and tackled a number of contentiou­s issues facing the sector.

Topics such as damage to loads by clandestin­es, vehicle security and contract conditions were addressed by solicitor Damian McGeady, while internatio­nal fraud expert David Snow flagged some very interestin­g examples of fraud indicators that we should all be mindful of.

Jim Power, Ireland’s leading economist and contributo­r to national news programmes and newspapers, shared his views on Brexit and its potential effects on the Transport Industry in the coming years.

These thought-provoking seminar topics certainly struck a chord with many seminar attendees and a lively question and answer session ensured.

Wright Insurance Brokers, a leading national commercial insurance broker headquarte­red in Wexford, has a long standing associatio­n with the Transport industry and has been providing insurance solutions to the Haulage sector for over 30 years.
