The Good, The Bad & The Indemnity

A Lesson in Shifting Risk

Understanding contractual indemnities, noting an interest on a policy, obligations to insure and more


In the commercial world much attention is given to contractual terms that affect price, product & profit, often at the expense of clauses designed to transfer risk from one party to another.

But when something goes wrong, good times can very quickly turn bad. A sound understanding of how these terms operate and the advantages to be gained by them is vital in today’s market.

Do you know:
  • If the terms agreed really provide the protections sought?
  • How to secure an enforceable indemnity and the consequences that flow from providing one?
  • What noting an interest on a policy really means?
  • What you need to do to satisfy your obligation to insure?
  • The consequences of waiving rights of subrogation?
  • When all is said and done whether your policy will respond?
In this 3.25 hour workshop we will break down the principles that are key to the enforcement of commercial contracts.  Together we will explore the very latest Court decisions on indemnity clauses, insurance provisions and noting an interest on a policy, and tie it all together with our entertaining and 'hands on' approach.
