’Northern Ireland is a market we understand well and we’re committed to supporting local brokers with on-the-ground expertise,’ says operations and claims director

Uris Group-owned Midas has expanded its Midas Jewel household product into Northern Ireland following broker demand for access in the region. 

Midas Jewel is a comprehensive buildings and contents product designed to cater for both standard and non-standard household risks.

Brokers in Northern Ireland can now access the product immediately, with existing agency partners having the facility activated automatically from launch.

The product is backed by Zurich and supported by the established Midas claims infrastructure based in Belfast.

Long-standing market presence

The expansion builds on Midas’ long-standing presence in Belfast, where the company continues to operate its back-office, accounting and claims functions.

Commenting on the product expansion, Michael McKee, operations and claims director at Midas, said: “We’ve seen growing demand from brokers in Northern Ireland who wanted access to Midas Jewel and we’re delighted to open the product to the market.

“Northern Ireland is a market we understand well and we’re committed to supporting local brokers with on-the-ground expertise.”
