In this episode of Sitting With Sue Insurance Questions Answered, host Sue Taylor interviews Thom Lumley, a partner at RPC specializing in UK casualty bodily injury claims. They discuss the personal injury discount rate, a metric used to calculate compensation for major injury claims. The rate, set by the Lord Chancellor and influenced by actuarial tables like the Ogden tables, aims to balance the risk of over or under compensation of claimants. Thom highlights the recent change in the discount rate to 0.5% as of January 11th and its implications for compensators, including potential adjustments in premiums and increased use of periodical payment orders (PPOs). They also touch on the broader impact of world events on the UK insurance industry.
