Underwriting
Sourcing and providing the correct cover at speed is our normal.
We are specialists in providing Directors’ and Officers’ Insurance. Our Underwriting team is led by our Managing Director, Yoel Brightman.
The main tenets of our offering are a breadth of appetite, speed of response, and flexibility of service. We are keen to write a wide spectrum of risks from smaller private companies, to larger, complex publicly traded organisations.
We pride ourselves on our appetite to attach in the primary and low excess layers where we can be most meaningful to our clients in demonstrating our values, competencies and claims expertise.
We harness an array of data points and trends, valuable insight from our key legal relationships with leading international law firms and from our proprietary predictive modelling to allow us to assess and price risks competitively, whilst maintaining stable returns for our underwriting capital providers.
In addition to D&O, we are launching ancillary lines of Management Liability insurance such as Employment Practice Liability, Commercial Crime and Pension Trustees’ Liability for which we also bring a wealth of experience in underwriting and claims handling on a primary basis.
Ultimately, we aspire to be a key partner on D&O for our brokers and clients and are dedicated to working faster and with a broader mindset to find commercial risk financing solutions to today’s increasing D&O perils.
Claims
The strength and know-how to cope when the unexpected happens.
We know from that many years of experience in underwriting D&O risks and handling D&O claims that the unexpected does happen. Having a claim against the directors of a business can be devastating for both the business and the people involved. And, whilst the facts underlying a claim can be complex, the claims process should be straightforward and transparent.
Claims is the sharp end of any assessment of our service which is built upon the foundations of speed, expertise, partnership, clear communication, accountability, and fairness.
With our in-house experience, we have the recognition, credibility and respect across the market and main international solicitors firms in handling large, small, and intricate claims. We do this effectively, with care, sensitivity and with minimum of fuss.
Our claims team is managed by Owen Dacey, one of the most experienced and respected claims professionals in the London Market.
