High value properties, their contents and fine art are more at risk than ever before, revealed a seminar held by AIG private client group and Lynx Security.
Guest speaker at the seminar, the first in a series, Lynx Security chairman Jeremy Wetherell suggested that factors such as the ease of intelligence gathering as well as the increased pressure on police resources had contributed to the rise in crime.
Richard Hawkins of AIG private client group said at the seminar: “To ensure that an appropriate swift response and settlement quickly follows a claim, High net worth clients need a well constructed insurance programme, with a reputable and financially sound broker and insurance company.
“But this can never compensate for the trauma and loss of treasured and irreplaceable property. It is crucial that we advise our clients on ways to implement loss prevention methods for their home and high value possessions, including fine art and jewellery.”
