The value we offer to brokers and clients

We’re Built to Lead Claims

As a lead insurer, our team has extensive experience in handling the most complex, contentious and often high-profile claims seen in the market over the past 30 years. 

With expertise spanning industries, geographies, legal frameworks, and even dark web-related complexities,  we’ve seen it all - almost.

If there's a better way of doing something we like to think we will find it, because every client deserves to feel heard, supported and confident that they’ll receive a fair resolution.

Find out more about our Claims Philosophy.

We’re Built to Lead Claims

We lead claims with values  <USD$1,000 to more than $4B, for private individuals to global businesses, in diverse territories and across worldwide jurisdictions.

We empower our team to make decisions, so we set our internal SLA meaningfully above the Lloyd’s standard.

Our Claims Specialists, some with more than 40 years' experience, help train and support our consistent investment in emerging talent.

We cultivate strong relationships with leading experts, locally and globally.
