Report Highlights

The PI market will see very slow increases in gross written premiums, and future growth will be driven by the macroeconomic climate (if the economy recovers) and expansion into new professions.

Part of Jackson's package of reforms coming into force in April 2013 under the form of the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (LAPSO) will likely have both positive and negative impacts on solicitors and other professions involved in litigations.

The result of recent investment failures has inspired many professional indemnity insurers to reduce the cover they offer to IFAs, stop writing new business or significantly increase premiums. Also the Retail Distribution Review is likely to have an impact on IFAs market this year.
