Business Optimisation
WTW Networks works with A-rated Partner Insurers with stability and global reputations. Our relationships are longstanding and often enable us to gain tactical advantages for you, when it comes to your book of business and the returns you gain from your sales efforts.
Our broking and placement consultancy frequently elicits praise from our Network Members, particularly as we can identify insurance policies that are not working hard enough for you, suggesting consolidation programmes, without forcing you to abandon any specific deals or relationships you have built. Add to this enhanced policy wordings which makes our entire Networks proposition really benefit you.
Tech Desk
Even insurance professionals can have queries on insurer policy wordings, particularly when a client is going through a claim and there is uncertainty about their entitlement.
To assist with all quandaries about cover, we have our highly experienced Tech Desk, manned by policy wording experts who can help interpret policies, provide opinions on exclusions, conditions and warranties, definitions, and clients’ contractual agreements, and suggest insurer responses to potential client claims. This can enhance your customer centricity and prevent claims issues even before a claim has been notified.
