    The Market Affairs Podcast - Inflation Series: Complex & Catastrophic Loss

    08/10/2026

    In the next instalment of our inflation series, Natalie Larnder is joined by Andrew Williamson, Partner in our Catastrophic Injury team, to discuss the latest trends in care inflation for complex injury claims.

    Andrew shares insights from the mid-year care rate review, including signs that agency care inflation may be starting to stabilise, the growing case for direct employment in larger care packages, and the role of live-in and self-employed care models. He also explores the challenges insurers continue to face, from recruitment pressures to rising costs linked to specialist care provision, and offers his forecast for care inflation in 2027.
