Underwriting

Underwriting is effectively putting your signature at the bottom of an insurance policy, thus assuming liability in the event of a specified loss or damage. We advise, guide and help our sales force in accepting and pricing the business they do with our customers. The majority of our underwriters are based at our regional branches and we enable them to make decisions themselves and not to simply ‘follow a book’. We do this by giving them the training and development they need to feel confident to underwrite policies across the full breadth of our cover including motor, personal and commercial.

Our regional offices are supported by our Head Office underwriting department who focus on researching and developing our policies, setting the guide price for policies and providing training and development to the regions.
