Liability
Casualty insurance development is a high priority for us. We are keen to engage with brokers and show our appetite in becoming the insurer of choice for brokers in the South East of England. As with our other complementary underwriting areas we look at each risk on its own merit, however, we do know that brokers appreciate our joint approach where required.
Regional underwriters are fully empowered and supported by a wealth of actuarial, technical and administrative support,enabling us to provide robust and sustainable solutions to all of our clients, at all stages of the relationship.
We are committed to meeting client service requirements for policy documentation, claims handling and review meetings and consideration of mid-term amendments to coverage or policy structure.
We actively seek to establish a strong tripartite relationship, involving clients and brokers alike in all elements of our service proposition. Regular review of client requirements and regular communication allow our suite of services to develop in line with the evolution of our extensive client base.
We provide high level proactive account management, liaising closely with colleagues within the Risk Management, Claims and Rehabilitation teams.
