December 2021 / International Group Clubs - 2022 / 23 P&I - FDD Renewals - Swedish Club / UK Defence Club Part 9
Dear All,
SWEDISH CLUB
Attached is the renewal circular of the Swedish Club who is asking for 12.5% increase in P&I premiums for 2022 due to underwriting deficit. We have been advised that the Club is going to ask for 15% rise in premiums of FDD cover with some changes to deductibles, but a circular in that respect is yet to be issued.
As usual once the group reinsurance contract is renewed, the difference compared to the previous year (whether up or down) will be reflected on the members’ agreed renewal premium unless specified otherwise.
UK DEFENCE CLUB
Attached is the renewal circular of the Club asking for 7.5% general increase in premium due to increase in costs related to disputes of IMO sulphur related issues as well as Covid-19 and general charter party disputes.
Below you can find our comparison table of Group Clubs’ general increase levels.
