The International Union of Marine Insurance (IUMI) is introducing a new Masterclass in Cargo Insurance. The programme will take place in London in March 2023 and will have a strong focus on key principles and practices of cargo insurance. It is IUMI's first in-person training course.

Designed to deliver an advanced level of learning, the course has been created by cargo insurance experts to widen participants' understanding and expertise in this field. IUMI's Masterclass in Cargo Insurance is aimed at senior underwriters and executives who want to expand their knowledge of their own business. Individuals involved in the management of the cargo book of business that their insurers write will benefit most from the course. It comprises five modules taught by industry experts with outstanding expertise in their respective fields.

“The Masterclass in Cargo Insurance is an excellent tool to enable practitioners to deep dive into key concepts of their line of business. It also offers a terrific opportunity to network with industry peers and to explore the characteristics of the London market,” said Sanjiv Singh, IUMI Education Forum Chair and Head, Marine & Specialty Lines, General Insurance Council, Mumbai, India.

Breakout workshops and group exercises will see the participants take an active role to expand their learning and the view of the global cargo insurance business. A trip to Lloyd’s of London will enable delegates to explore the market's history and meet with senior representatives from the Lloyd's Market Association and Joint Cargo Committee. Two evening events will offer further opportunities for networking. Detailed information about the curriculum, course leaders and bookings are available here.
