Zurich to make more products available to its members

Cobra Network has announced that Zurich General Insurance has agreed to extend the scope of products available to Cobra Network members.

Since Cobra Network’s inception, Zurich has supported the membership with its high net worth personal product Zurich Private Clients.

With immediate effect, Zurich will make its range of commercial and personal lines products available to all Cobra Network members and will establish a new, dedicated service team in Sutton, Surrey.

John Lincoln, managing director of Cobra Network, which controls over £350 million in gross written premiums (GWP), said: “This is a significant development for COBRA Network and brings some considerable benefits to all our members including improved commissions and new dedicated service teams.

"Zurich is a major player in the UK insurance market and their positive decision to work closer with Cobra Network is a strong endorsement of our business proposition and the combined strength of our membership.”

Paul Greenwood, Zurich’s Director said, “We are pleased to be working closer with Cobra Network.

"Over the past three years, they have successfully demonstrated their ability to deliver dramatic economies of scale for insurers by bringing together a large number of successful brokers in an innovative way that allows them to grow their respective businesses. It’s a win-win business for all involved.”
