Many financial institutions face additional pressures generated by increased regulation, robust capital and lending criteria, and a global drive to improve disclosure, increase transparency and enhance shareholder protection.

We deliver a multi-faceted service concentrating on the Risk Management needs of the following main areas:

• Banking and Building Societies
• Wealth Managers 
• Insurance Companies. 

Fund Managers

The investment industry, in response to the demands of increasingly more sophisticated clients and an uncertain economy, is facing unprecedented challenges. As investors look for higher returns and greater portfolio diversification, the industry is continuing to experience unprecedented growth. In order to remain competitive, the industry is developing more innovative products. In addition to market demands, additional pressures are created by changing regulations. Now, more than ever, investment managers need specialised insurance cover.

Private Equity & Venture Capital Companies

With the increased litigation surrounding investment decisions and with institutional investors requiring greater risk management, even insisting that Professional Indemnity is purchased before they will consider investment, the need for Professional Indemnity in this sector has never been more necessary.

We have an in-depth understanding of the market trends and the needs required to build risk management programmes, which anticipate an ever-changing and uncertain marketplace. Our clients include long only, hedge fund and private equity managers, together with family offices and portfolio management specialists. We understand the risks they face from the actions of clients, investors, shareholders, regulators, employees and other third parties.

Claims

We have extensive experience in handling claims in these classes of business and our in-house claims team ensures greater efficiency and will assist our clients in seeing any claims through to their conclusion.
