Duty of Fair Presentation. You must be sure that the information you have given to us to pass onto the insurers is a ‘‘fair presentation’‘ of the risk. This means that you must have clearly disclosed every material circumstance which you, your senior management, or persons responsible for arranging your insurance knows or ought to know following a reasonable search. A material circumstance is one which may influence an insurers’ judgement over whether to take the risk, and if so on what terms. If you are in doubt as to whether a circumstance is material, then you should disclose it. Furthermore, you must inform us if any of the information provided to us has changed. If it has, then you must tell us about the changes before we arrange cover. Your duty to notify material changes in the risk applies when you purchase an insurance policy, throughout the life of the policy and when you renew that policy. Please note that failure to disclose a material circumstance may entitle an Insurer to impose different terms on your cover or reduce the amount of a claim payable. In some cases, your cover could be invalidated, which would mean that a claim would not be paid.
