Cavel USA, Inc and another v Seaton Insurance Co and another [2009] EWCA Civ 1363; [2009] WLR (D) 369

“The concept of fraud in the English commercial law context in a case having an international flavour was much wider than the concept of deceit flowing from a fraudulent misrepresentation and could extend to cases without the need to establish the element of dishonesty of the person against whom the fraud was alleged.”
