Insurance Brokers' Liability
The insurance broking market is vast and varied; from brokers serving consumer and SME customers, to truly global brokers advising multi-nationals on highly complex insurance programmes. The mid-market has seen significant consolidation, as well the larger brokers increasing their regional presence to reach SME and mid-sized clients. Personal lines and general insurance brokers face significant challenges from rapid technological advances and commoditisation. Insurance brokers must be true risk professionals/advisors, if they are to continue to add value as trusted insurance advisors to their clients. We have the expertise and resources to support brokers when claims arise.
