The fall in aviation insurance premiums is set to slow in the upcoming renewal season, according to a new report from Aon.
The report said that although the aviation sector had seen limited direct damage from the devastating US hurricane season, the knock-on effect would be that underwriters would try to end this year's run of premium reductions.
This year, rates reductions in the aviation sector have averaged at 7% for liability and hull insurance combined.
Year-to-date hull and liability premiums stand at over $530m, a reduction of 15% for hull and 13% for liability rates. This is in comparison to nearly $575m for January to September 2004.
There is little evidence that the five major airline crashes in August will have a significant impact on renewal premiums, Aon said.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
