Nous sommes reconnus pour l’attention que nous portons aux risques liés aux professions nouvelles et émergentes

Notre équipe dédiée à la responsabilité des professions émergentes est un chef de file dans l’aide à nos clients assureurs dans la conception de produits et la rédaction de politiques et a développé une véritable expertise dans ce domaine. Nous reconnaissons l’importance croissante de ce secteur pour les compagnies d’assurance et nous avons répondu aux besoins du marché en proposant des solutions novatrices et commercialement saines pour les nouvelles réclamations et leurs processus.

Nous avons de l’expérience dans le traitement des demandes individuelles et dans la spécification des travaux pour les compagnies d’assurance concernant un large éventail de professionnels, y compris les organisations caritatives/associations, les concepteurs, les consultants en éducation, les consultants en gestion, les administrateurs d’hypothèques, les professionnels du marketing et les rédacteurs testamentaires.

Notre équipe comprend que les professions considérées comme émergentes dans un territoire peuvent être bien établies dans une autre. Nous nous appuyons donc sur nos connaissances approfondies du secteur, issues de notre réseau international, et sur notre compréhension des coutumes locales pour guider les compagnies d’assurance à cet égard.
