The BILA Charitable Trust has arranged with the kind support of BILA a Memorial Lecture to be delivered on Wednesday 6 November 2024 in the Old Library, Lloyd’s of London to mark the passing and lifelong contribution made to insurance law, BILA and to the BILA Charitable Trust by Professor Malcolm Clarke, who died on 5 April 2024 at the age of 81.
No registration fee is being charged to attend the Lecture, but all are encouraged to make a donation to the Trust, either as a one-off gift or by way of a regular annual payment, to help the Trust maintain its work over future years. To assist with any donating this BILA Charitable Trust – Donation and Standing Order Form_has been created for your kind use.
The Lecture will be delivered by Sir Stephen Males on the subject of “Interpreting Insurance Contracts”. Sir Stephen studied law at St John’s College, Cambridge under the supervision of Professor Clarke and who since 2019 has sat in the Court of Appeal. The Trustees are delighted to report that among those who will be attending are members of Professor Clarke’s family, members of the judiciary, among whom are further past students of Professor Clarke, along with colleagues from Cambridge University Law Faculty and elsewhere. Also invited are all past winners of the BILA Book Prize, which was twice awarded to Professor Clarke. Among those winners are former students of Professor Clarke.
The BILA Book Prize for 2024 is to be awarded after the Lecture has been delivered.
To mark the 40th Anniversary of the Trust a full list of all past winners of the Prize has been loaded on the BILA Book Prize page of the BILA website to be found here.
