Advanced Programme in Resolving Insurance Contract Disputes through Arbitration
1Summary
Insurance courts used to be the default venue for every dispute between an insurer and a policyholder, and for a long time courts treated insurance claims with real suspicion. That has changed. Since the recent creation of a dedicated committee for insurance disputes, arbitration has become the preferred route for insurance companies — faster, more private, and handled by people who actually understand the technical side of a policy. This programme walks through why that shift happened and how to make the most of it.
Participants build a working knowledge of insurance contract provisions, contract terms for staff and organisational coverage, and risk management practice, then move into how arbitration is applied in real disputes. The emphasis throughout is practical: less complicated procedure, lower cost, shorter timelines, and outcomes that protect an ongoing commercial relationship with the other party rather than burning it down in open court.
