Bank brings supply chain services in-house post-HBOS merger
RSA’s affinity business will suffer a blow next year when Lloyds Banking Group cuts it out as a supply chain provider.
RSA has been working with the bank’s insurance arm for five years, handling home insurance claims through its supply chain network.
A Lloyds spokesman said the bank had a “very successful” relationship with RSA, but would bring the supply chain services in-house.
The decision is understood to be part of a wider review the bank has taken since merging with HBOS last year, which also has its own insurance division. The spokesman said: “Lloyds Banking Group General Insurance (LBGGI) has reviewed its options for the combined household insurance supply chain offering.
“While this has been a very successful five-year partnership with the RSA supply chain collaboration, LBGGI has decided to operate its own supply chain.
The new arrangements will be implemented from mid-2010.”
No one from RSA was available for comment.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
