Technical Capabilities

Underwriting

At LIU Europe, we pride ourselves on our underwriting capabilities which make us stand out from the crowd. By taking calculated risks we can create responsive and creative risk solutions for brokers and clients and our multilingual skills allow us to provide a first-class service no matter where the client is based.

Our underwriters are fully empowered and accessible to our brokers and clients at a local level. They have the authority and experience to provide positive and imaginative solutions to difficult risks without having to refer up through a complex structure.

Heavy investment in research and development means we are in a position to write diverse risks which often fall outside our competitors’ competences. We welcome higher risk industries such as construction, biotechnology, telecommunications and technology, in addition to those risks with US exposures.

Claims

As well as superior underwriting, we do not overlook the importance of first-class claims handling. Our efficient and pragmatic approach ensures that claims are settled fairly and promptly. We actively control claims costs on behalf of clients by seeking early settlement and minimising the expensive use of solicitors.

Our highly qualified team, comprising experienced lawyers qualified in various jurisdictions including UK, US, France, Germany and Spain, loss adjusters and claims handlers, is on hand to deal with the technical issues that can arise from the complex claims which are inherent with the classes of business we write.

Working in partnership with brokers and clients, we are committed to maintaining a common sense approach to achieve quick solutions to all claims issues.

Please note that all notices of claims or circumstances must be in writing and must be sent to the address specified by the relevant policy.
