Coverage of the Cover Holders and Risk Takers-Exchange Conferences
Duncan Dale, CEO, Dale Underwriting Partners, said his syndicate, which started three years ago, has broadened its operations and is actively penetrating the broker market.
Brokers and underwriters at the CHART-Exchange conference in Baltimore court one another with the goal of placing coverages--including some that traditionally have remained within North American markets--with the London Market.
Sheila Shaw, senior vice president, Irwin Siegel Agency, said medical clinics, behavioral health and a host of other services are hard to place in standard markets, which means looking further afield for coverage.
Earl Burkett, president, Strong Tower Insurance, hopes to create insurance coverage for those who must defend themselves in court because their religious beliefs contradict laws or regulations.
Glenn Clark, president, Rockwood Programs, and founder, CHART-Exchange, said meaningful insurance agency growth comes from new risk products and programs, not simply from agencies buying one another.
