’We’ve been investing heavily in our eTrading capabilities,’ says director of digital trading

Allianz Commercial has expanded its UK digital offering by launching new products on its QuoteSME platform.

A statement released today (20 October 2023) said the insurer would add its accident and health product to the platform as well as new features for its complete mini fleet offering.

The firm said it was making the move as part of its continued investment in digital trading to bolster the process for brokers.

Helen Bryant, director of digital trading at Allianz Commercial, said: “Ease of trading is crucial in this busy world and I am delighted to confirm these changes to the market.

“We’ve been investing heavily in our eTrading capabilities, listening to feedback and empowering our underwriters, all of which are resulting in tangible benefits for our brokers.”

The products

The complete mini fleet product provides cover for up to 15 vehicles or 20 at renewal.

New features that will be available digitally include excess reduction and a green parts update to mirror Allianz’s proposition for larger motor fleets.

Meanwhile, Allianz’s accident and health product consist of personal accident and business travel, which can be purchased individually, together or alongside another insurance product.

Personal accident provides lump sum or weekly financial cover that can be used to support employees’ wages, hire temporary or permanent staff to replace an injured employee or offset other unexpected costs.

Business travel protects employees when they need to work away from home. The cover extends to employees, contractors, guests and their family whilst on a trip.

“By offering these products through our digital trading platforms, we are aiming to make the process as quick and smooth as possible to make sure that Allianz is easy to do business with,” Bryant said.
