NIG head Neil Manser wants insurer’s full potential to be seen

Neil Manser

NIG is capable of dealing with larger SME and mid-market risks as well as the smaller e-traded SME business it is best known for.

In an in-depth interview with Insurance Times, Manser said that NIG is “pigeonholed” too much as an SME insurer, and he is keen to ensure the market understands the broker-only commercial insurer’s full capability.

He said: “We are experts at SME, there is no doubt; but our portfolio extends beyond that.

“So it is important that we maximise not only the e-trade side of the business, but that we extend that knowledge and leverage that expertise into the broader commercial business.”

 

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
