MARINE INSURANCE HIGHLIGHTS: THE CHANGING PATTERN OF RISK..

SUBTITLE: 'SHIP FAILURE PRESENTS A MUCH MORE OPTIMISTIC PICTURE, WITH A TWO-THIRDS REDUCTION DURING THE 1990S -- THE CREDIT FOR WHICH MUST BE SHARED BY THE CLASSIFICATION SOCIETIES AND SHIPOWNERS'. THIS IS ONE OF THE LEADING CONCLUSIONS FROM THE RECENTLY PUBLISHED TEN-YEAR ANALYSIS OF TRENDS IN MARITIME RISK BY THE UK P&I CLUB. KARL LUMBERS, THE CLUB'S MANAGER OF SHIP INSPECTION AND LOSS PREVENTION, WARNS THAT HUMAN ERROR STILL CONTINUES TO BE A SERIOUS CHALLENGE, ACCOUNTING FOR 58% OF MAJOR CLAIMS, AND EMPHASISES THE NEED FOR EDUCATION AND TRAINING IN LOSS PREVENTION.
