This important book examines in depth the following topics: insurance contracts, the various parties involved, and the characteristics of particular types of insurance. It is still a crucial resource on the subject and is a part of the Insurance Practitioners Library; it is currently in its eleventh edition.

The following new features have been added to the twelfth edition:

  • The most recent and important UK decisions, including: Young v RSA [2019] CSOH 32 (disclosure under the Insurance Act 2015); Euro Pools v RSA [2019] EWCA Civ 808 (claims made policies); Equitas v MMI [2019] EWCA Civ 718 (utmost good faith and claims); and more.
  • The chapter on property insurance has been rewritten to take account of a series of important decisions from New Zealand on the measure of indemnity, including Sartex Quilts v Endurance [2019] EWHC 1103 (Comm).
  • Significant updates to the chapter on motor insurance in light of amendments to the Road Traffic Act 1988 with key rulings from both England and Europe, including R & S Pilling v UK Insurance [2019] UKSC 16, Cameron v Liverpool Victoria [2019] UKSC 6 and Motor Insurers Bureau v Lewis [2019] EWCA Civ 909.
  • Discussion of important cases from Australia and New Zealand, including: Delta Pty v Team Rock Anchors [2019] QCA 62 (settlement of liability claims); Onley v Catlin Syndicate [2018] FCAFC 119 (directors and officers insurance); Xu v IAG New Zealand [2019] NZSC 68 (assignment of property claims).
