Stuart Danskin, director of underwriting for the regional division at Arch, talks about the company’s submission for the Commercial Lines Insurer of the Year category
1. Why did you put yourselves forward for this category?
We have put ourselves forward for Commercial Insurer of the Year award due to the standout results of our broker-first strategy.
At Arch, we combine expert underwriting with a relentless broker-focused mindset, providing fast response times, empowered regional underwriters and access to specialist propositions across both core and niche commercial lines, which are often only available via the London market.
Our national presence, five star service recognition and proven performance demonstrate that brokers trust us to deliver relevant propositions for even the most complex risks.
By evolving with their needs and investing in people and platforms, we offer insights and services that help set us apart as an agile, responsive and relevant insurer.
2. What makes your entry stand out, and why should you win the award?
The last 12 months have been a dynamic period at Arch in the UK regions. We have transformed our regional structure, adopting a four-region model with dedicated heads to enhance broker alignment and engagement.
We have also expanded and enhanced our product-led liability offering to tackle complex business risks, while continuing to innovate with our Arch IQ quote and bind platform and Arch Risk Management Solutions.
Underpinning all of this, we have worked to streamline our processing capabilities, bolster our claims function and speed up renewals.
Ultimately, every step we have taken over the last year has been about strengthening and expanding our relationships and creating the best possible platform to push forward. Hopefully that is a great recipe for award success.
3. What would winning this award mean to you and your firm?
Winning the Commercial Insurer of the Year award would be an incredible recognition of the hard work and dedication that our entire team has put into delivering a truly broker-focused strategy.
For Arch UK Regional, it would validate the investments we have made over the past year across every part of our organisation, all designed to better serve our brokers and mutual clients in a complex and evolving market.
This award would not only celebrate our commitment to providing tailored, specialist propositions underpinned by high-quality service, but also reinforce our reputation as a trusted partner for brokers across the UK commercial lines market.
