INNOVATION
JLT’s global team of specialists implemented an innovative approach to the broking of a major UK contractor’s excess casualty and professional indemnity programs.
Historically, the three classes, employers' liability (EL) , professional liability (PL) and professional indemnity (PI) had been written as separate programs with different insurers.
Initially JLT spent time analyzing the insurer participations to understand the level of capacity committed across all three classes and identify the premium generated.
By identifying competing capacity and understanding the insurers’ appetites, JLT was able to design an integrated program for a combined primary PL and PI layer.
While the final placement included separate limits for each of the classes within the policy, challenging premium targets and increased limits were achieved. The (total cost of risk) benefit to the client was valued at approximately £1,000,000.
