Introduction
A stand-out course for students interested in risk in the global insurance industry, with extensive networking opportunities and progression towards the industry standard qualification (ACII).
Structure
Content
The optional modules listed are those that are most likely to be available, but they may be subject to change.
You will study:
- Insurance Practice – This module introduces you to the three main business functions that make up the insurance market: underwriting, broking, and claims. It covers aspects such as regulatory frameworks, underwriting risk evaluation and pricing, agency and risk transfer, client relationships, settlement negotiation and identifying fraudulent claims.
- Insurance Business Environment – This module aims to provide you with the essential underpinnings in economics, law and finance to understand and operate in the insurance marketplace. This includes the role and impact of the industry in the national and global economy, the legal structures underpinning insurance contractual liabilities and the regulatory, financial and ethical requirements within which insurance businesses operate.
- Insurance Risk Management – This module provides a fundamental understanding of risk and risk management processes in the operational context of insurance business. This understanding is underpinned with the key theoretical models of risk management and applied in operational examples to understand and evaluate the effectiveness of decision making in practice. Real examples drawn from industry will be used to illustrate and challenge risk decisions and encourage critical evaluation of risk management applications in insurance business contexts.
- Strategic Leadership in Insurance – This module provides a fundamental understanding of strategic leadership, planning and development, strategic business relationship management and leadership behaviours in the operational context of insurance businesses. Real examples drawn from industry will be used to illustrate and challenge leaders’ decisions and encourage critical evaluation of leadership in insurance business contexts.
- Applied Project in Insurance – The project is designed to allow you to focus on a particular aspect of insurance risk management theory or practice to carry out an in-depth study with practical relevance to the contemporary insurance industry. You will be given opportunities to interact with industry to help generate your research question and will present your project proposal to a mixed academic and industry panel.
Plus, one optional module from:
- Environmental Risk Management
- Technological Innovation in Insurance
- International Financial Crime.
