Providing Business Succession plan and Key Person cover recommendations

Ensuring that your business can face adversity suffered through the loss of key personnel is paramount. People are important, but a true business must be able to survive the loss through death or accident of important management and staff in their business, and have your insurance able to be triggered correctly and matched with any buy / sell agreements between the owners or management of a business. We can introduce you to strategic partners who can assist in this area.

We can request one of our IT partners to audit your IT Systems to ensure that you have the correct procedures in place. The loss of data in nearly any business these days is a catastrophic event, and you need to ensure that if this was to occur to you, that you have a plan in place.

We can have our insurers of prestigious homes provide covers that are unique in the market, and offer coverage far in excess of what is standard.

In addition to this, insurance replacement valuations and personalised risk survey reports can be provided where your level of home and contents meets minimum criteria.

Underwriter Presentations and Risk Control surveys

For major businesses, a professional survey of your property for insurance purposes can accomplish two major tasks – present your business to insurers in a professional manner and thus allow you to control the process of how you want to be presented and perceived by the insurance market. Often, insurers will conduct their own surveys; however, this will mean that you are at the mercy of how they interpret your business.

Furthermore, a survey will also point out areas that you may consider for improvement in order to ensure that your risk profile is reduced.

Premium Funding

If you would prefer to pay for your insurance in instalments, we can arrange this for you through a premium funding service. This means your annual premium can be split into regular payments. Funding your premium this way can let you regulate your cash flow. Premium funding can also protect and maintain existing banking "draw down" facilities and provide an unsecured, off balance sheet loan.
