Davies has launched a new bespoke specialist property and casualty wholesale broker called Assurex Global London (AG).
Hosted on the Davies Broking Services platform as an Appointed Representative, AG will provide direct access to the London insurance markets.
It will initially target professional and financial lines, marine and cargo stock throughput, product recall, cyber, contingency and terrorism and political violence, with the potential for other lines to be added in future.
For European risks, AG will also be operating under Davies Broking Europe platform. The Davies Broking Europe platform was granted Lloyd’s accreditation in July 2024, enabling brokers to access the European Economic Area.
