Join us for a cross-sector discussion with legal, surveying and insurance experts on rights of light risk and mitigation in development finance.
Why do rights of light matter and where should you focus your review to better understand the risk and guard against impact on a development?
We are bringing together a panel of experts across the sector to explore legal, surveying and insurance perspectives including:
- Where rights of light risks lie for developers and funders;
- Where does the recent Bankside litigation leave the rights of light landscape;
- Practical mitigation measures available, including the role of insurance; and
- How to avoid development delays linked to rights of light issues.
This will be followed by a live audience Q&A.
There will be drinks and networking after the panel session, finishing at 7pm.
Speakers:
- Rachel Kerr - Partner, Trowers & Hamlins
- Barney Soanes-Cundle - Senior Associate, Hollis Global
- Ben Thompson - Executive Director, Howdens
