IQUW launches crisis management insurance

Property and Speciality re/insurer IQUW has launched a new crisis management insurance class to help businesses anticipate, prevent, respond to, and recover from a wide variety of risks.

IQUW said its new offering will provide lead market capabilities in global specialty product recall for a broad spectrum of manufacturers across new product lines, including product contamination, auto and other component part recall and first party recall risks.

The new global crisis management portfolio will be led by experienced specialty underwriter Jon Atkinson, who joined IQUW from Talbot Underwriting where, as senior class underwriter, he developed their crisis management capabilities.

“The launch of crisis management enables IQUW to offer a greater range of specialty products. Jon joins IQUW with unrivalled specialist experience and I am thrilled that he will lead this new portfolio and develop it alongside our digital vision,” said David Morris, group chief underwriting officer at IQUW.

Atkinson added: “We will offer cover globally, with a specific focus on food & beverage, automotive and other safety focused manufacturing markets where we intend to be a lead market for brokers. IQUW has a vision for digital underwriting and, in line with this, our crisis management portfolio will combine data, automation and human expertise to deliver consistent, accurate and fast responses to support broker.”

IQUWs insurance and reinsurance products are distributed through Lloyd’s syndicate 1856 and IQUW Agency in Bermuda.
