We place claims managers alongside underwriters in each trading team. This way they develop a really good understanding of our insurance products and make sure that when a claim comes in we respect the policy intent. Sometimes insurers forget that a policy is a promise to pay covered claims, not a piece of paper for lawyers to pore over looking for loopholes. Dependable, high quality claims service has been at the heart of Beazley s business for more than 25 years. We focus on four areas that we know matter greatly to brokers and clients: access, responsiveness, expertise and commerciality. In each of these areas we aim to provide a service that will exceed our client s expectations and endorse the broker s good judgement in having recommended Beazley to their clients. Access Responsiveness A key benefit of doing business with Beazley is that our claims professionals work closely with our underwriters to ensure that we understand the promises made to our insureds when they purchased the policy. An intimate understanding of the product and the policy terms ensure that we provide a high quality and rapid service to our insureds and brokers alike. Expertise Commerciality Anthony Hobkinson Group Head of Easy access to decision-makers Swift and appropriate response Expertise relevant to the insurance contract and to the client s industry Building long term partnerships
We pride ourselves on listening to our business partners and working with them to find the right solutions, all the better if we are thinking beyond the norm to find that solution. We are a leading provider of sports disability insurance in the market and many of our clients are world class athletes. They are expected to deliver high class performance day in and day out, and they expect such performance from others and this keeps us on our toes. Shaun Pink Life, Accident & Health Our expertise We know that clients value dealing with an insurer that has experience of their industry and is familiar with the kinds of dispute that can arise. By specialising we are better able to support and coordinate the prompt resolution of claims. Our team includes claims professionals with deep experience in their respective product areas. A wide range of skills are required to service claims across varying business lines. With a team of over 100 professionals in different jurisdictions we are able to handle effectively the full spectrum of claims, whether we are dealing with a public company board of directors, a long-term care facility, an off-shore energy company, a data security breach, or the effects of a natural disaster. This is what the brokerage community had to say about our claims staff: Very responsive and very helpful. The people I deal with know what they are talking about. Superior claims team with superior knowledge. Our philosophy is to form long term effective partnerships with our insureds and brokers that go beyond the handling of any single claim. Through building trust and understanding we are better able to resolve quickly any claims issues that may arise. They are a proactive team that I enjoy dealing with, as they take a bigger picture view and are client service orientated. Source: Gracechurch Performance Monitor
