Aviation
The aviation (re)insurance market has experienced significant hardening since late 2019, putting increased emphasis on working with only the most specialised and knowledgeable underwriters. As members of the International Union of Aviation Insurers, we have sought out these individuals for our proposition, to provide facultative reinsurance to clients domiciled across the globe (except in US/Canada and sanctioned countries). The team can work with brokers/cedants in a lead or follow capacity.

Portfolio manager
Our portfolio managers have a wealth of experience in their niche line of business and combine this with a dedication to helping our broker partners win and retain more business.
