From time to time during the conveyancing process, title defects may come to light, or time constraints or delays may force transactions to proceed with no searches or expired searches in place. How legal firms manage these types of risks is paramount.
Indemnity insurance policies can be a way to reduce the buyer’s risk, while still keeping the transaction on track. That’s why property search and data specialists, tmgroup and CLSQ, are teaming up to deliver an educational webinar to help law firms understand the compliance requirements of the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD) when arranging insurance.
The IDD governs the design and distribution of insurance products, with a focus on enhancing consumer protection standards and ensuring that the products offered align with consumers’ needs.
The live webinar lasts one hour and will give legal practitioners an understanding of the IDD’s regulations, and reveal common myths and misconceptions and the consequences of non-compliance.
