This podcast covers key updates and advice for the Australian insurance industry. Topics include the unclear cost differences between annual and installment payments for tradespeople's insurances, recent fines for Mercer Super due to member service issues, and the detection of the H5 bird flu in migratory seabirds in New South Wales and Western Australia that warrants biosecurity review by farm operators. The podcast also introduces Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance's new service for Australian Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), covering risks such as directors' liabilities and employment practices. Advice includes thorough review of insurance policies, verification of coverage, updating biosecurity plans, and considering insurance outside of super schemes. The importance of careful reviews in the face of specialist insurance products going digital is emphasized as well.
