Underwriting Appetite

Our underwriting appetite is characterised by high volume and on average low limits. Whilst we will underwrite higher limits and heavy risks in a balanced and considered manner, this is not done in isolation but in support of portfolios

Our team of highly skilled underwriters have extensive experience in offering personal accident cover across a wide range of industry sectors.  Our key appetite areas can be defined as follows;

Schemes and affinity groups

Where:

  • the broker wishes to retain a high degree of ownership
  • the insurance offering is tailored and highly targeted
  • simple and well controlled administration processes, using modern technology
