In Tynefield Care Ltd (and others) v the New India Assurance Company Ltd¹ the indemnity claims of the insured Claimant companies were dismissed, and policies avoided from inception for breach of the duty of fair presentation under the Insurance Act 2015. The breach related to the insolvency history of one of the de facto or shadow directors of the Claimant companies.

This judgment therefore adds to the post-2015 Act case law considering breach of the duty of fair presentation.
