Association of Corporate Counsel


Online Webinar

Blank Rome partner Linda Kornfeld, vice chair of the firm’s Insurance Recovery practice group, will speak at the Association of Corporate Counsel (“ACC”) webinar, “General Counsel and Board Director Insurance Coverage Primer: Practical Guidance in Securing Maximum Financial Utility of His/Her Company’s Insurance Portfolio as a Tool to Transfer Risk Allocation,” taking place Wednesday, November 10, 2021, from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. EST.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

This program focuses on insurance coverage issues created by the pandemic, climate change, natural disasters, cybersecurity, and business continuity. Panelists will discuss the important intersection between the legal department, C-suite, risk management, and the board when both buying insurance and when events happen where insurance assets can be a critical financial offset to legal spend and other impacts to a company’s bottom line. Attendees will participate in a lively discussion among in-house counsel, insurance broker claims advocates, and coverage counsel about how to create the right team and strategy to make maximum use of insurance recovery opportunities, leaving the discussion with an action plan for turning policy premium expenditures into long term financial assets.

The program is co-sponsored by ACC’s Women in the House, Financial Services, and Corporate and Securities Law Networks.
