Chief ombudsman & chief executive, Caroline Wayman, attended the ABI annual conference yesterday to take part in a panel discussion on the strategic and reputational challenges for insurance and long-term savings in 2021.

As part of the discussion, Caroline spoke about some of the challenges consumers and businesses have faced during the pandemic, and the complaints we’re seeing. She also spoke about the importance of clarity and transparency for insurance policies and the need to ensure customers have a clear understanding what they’re covered for.
