Practical aspects of General Average

11 July 2017

Building on our 2016 webinar series about General Average and the York-Antwerp Rules, these two special sessions focus on the practical aspects of General Average. Our guest speaker Michael Harvey, Fellow and past Chairman of the UK Association of Average Adjusters, past President of AMD (The International Association of Average Adjusters) and Director of Harvey Ashby Ltd discussed the processes which occur from the time that a casualty happens until the General Average adjustment is issued using a real-life case study. Emphasis is placed on recognising and dealing with issues that may arise such as the provision of security (both for General Average and salvage) and the documents required to support the value of property and any claims in General Average.

 

Part 1: Identification of a general average situation, required actions and the collection of security

Part 2: General average surveys, average disbursements insurances, the provision of documents, the general average adjustment and the response to it
