NU ups bonus unit
Norwich Union (NU) has increased its bonus unit at Bishops, with £3m in premium expected to be written by the end of the year.
Ashford-based Bishops was one of the first UK brokers to set up a bonus unit with General Accident (GA).
Bishops managing director Richard Bishop said it had grown the unit, through GA, CGU and now NU, to one of the busiest in the UK, with its own premises and four NU staff.
NU's Ken Wallace will launch the improved unit on 28 November.
Abbey PLUS launch
Abbey Legal Protection has launched a new facility called PLUS that gives cover for loss assessors and specialist consultants.
The cover is arranged on a whole broker account basis and rated on the material damage and business interruption premiums.
PLUS covers the costs of a loss adjuster's professional fees and gives access to forensic scientists, specialist solicitors, chartered surveyors and accountants and business continuity specialists.
The Balcombe Group, the Harris Claims Group and Thompson & Bryan will provide the loss assessors.
GAB online system
GAB's London Market operations have a new online system that allows worldwide claims control.
The new system follows a number of appointments to its London Market office since its appointment of James Peace to run the operation almost two years ago.
The new technology at www.gabrobinsgbu.com includes Global Claims, which allows worldwide claims control, compliance to global operating standards and specialist information on large and complex claims.
Global Contacts is a web-enabled database of global accounts that provides current contact details, account instructions and policy summaries to any GAB Robins adjuster anywhere in the world.
