The thorny question of whether the destruction of the World Trade Centre was one event or two will be decided by a jury.
A New York judge this week referred the case to a trial on 3 September.
The jury will decide if the tragedy was one insured event, covered for a total of $3.55bn (£2.4bn), or two separate insured events worth £7.1bn (£4.9bn) as contended by leaseholder Larry Silverstein.
Swiss Re, which holds 22% of the liability, contends it was working on the basis of a Willis form. Its wording would appear to treat the two plane crashes as one event.
Silverstein argues that coverage was agreed under a Travelers form, which did not define "occurrence".
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.
