Correspondents Open House 2022

On 28th September, the UK P&I Club took the opportunity to host its first ever Correspondents Open House to coincide with the International Group P&I Correspondents Conference in London, as hundreds of Club correspondents travelled from across the globe to meet in London for a few days.

Refreshments, cakes, balloons - and even some custom M&M's with UK P&I Club Correspondent Manager Neil Beckwith's face were on display for Correspondents, along with a goodie bag filled with UKP&I merchandise on their exit.

It was an absolute privilege for the UK P&I Club to be able to open its doors to so many Club correspondents and have the opportunity to reconvene with our correspondents network. Correspondents perform a key role in looking after the Club's interests and our members around the world and operating without them would be extremely difficult.

The coming into force of the Electronic Trade Documents Act last week in the UK is a potentially transformational moment in the development of electronic bills of lading.

The Electronic Trade Documents Act (“the Act”)  comes into force today in the United Kingdom, giving legal recognition in English law to electronic trade documents, including electronic bills of lading.

The International Group (“IG”) Standard Form Letters of Indemnity (given in return for delivery of cargo without production of an original bill of lading and/or delivery of cargo at a port or place other than stated in the bill of lading) were last reviewed in 2010.

The International Group of P&I Clubs are pleased to announce a suite of new measures to support the Club's correspondent networks in engaging with the P&IQ programme including a significant discount on the exams and textbooks plus an opportunity to win a scholarship.
