Beazley has reached an agreement with Edgewater Holdings, a managing general underwriter in the employment practices liability insurance (EPLI) industry, to fully consolidate its writings with Beazley.

The move will see Edgewater expand the depth of its services and products in the EPLI arena and will enable Beazley to expand its affinity group business and increase market penetration within the EPLI market.

Mark Kollar, Edgewater president, said: “Beazley's ‘A' rating and its depth of knowledge and experience in EPLI, make it the best possible partner for serving the unique needs of associations and affinity groups, as well as individual risks.”

Paul Nash, EPLI underwriter at Beazley said: “Edgewater's market leading risk management practices and complementary distribution channels will further support Beazley's commitment to deliver a superior service for employers, associations and affinity groups.”
