DUAL has expanded its global cyber and technology capabilities through a revised strategic partnership backed by A-rated capacity partners led by Liberty, enabling higher primary limits for risks with revenues up to £1 billion and enhanced excess limits for risks up to £5 billion.
The firm explained that the expansion creates more opportunities for brokers to engage with a broader appetite across more sectors and business sizes in the mid- and large-market segments, while maintaining a strong commitment to its core SME market.
Simon McGinn, CEO, DUAL UK, commented, “As the risk management landscape continues to grow and evolve, we’re increasing our capacity to support larger and more complex risks, while maintaining the trusted relationships and dependable solutions our insureds expect.
“Our focus is to maintain our position of operating at the top of the global cyber insurance market. With new technology partnerships, an expanded appetite, and a reinforced underwriting framework, this is a powerful example of how DUAL is delivering genuinely market‑leading solutions.”
Stephen Bonnington, Managing Director, Cyber, DUAL UK, said, “The cyber market continues to evolve rapidly as technology advances and new vulnerabilities emerge across an increasing attack surface. Our expanded cyber offering positions DUAL to meet these challenges head‑on, delivering greater opportunity for brokers and enhanced protection for clients.
“With an underwriting‑led and technology‑enabled approach, our underwriters now have the power to make faster, more informed decisions while preserving DUAL’s longstanding strengths in the SME and lower mid‑corporate markets. As the landscape continues to evolve, we look forward to working with a wider range of brokers to navigate these risks.”
Stephen Tompson, Head of Supercoverholders, Liberty Specialty Markets, added, “With the technological evolution of AI and increasing use of data centres, the cybersecurity market becomes ever more complex. It is therefore critical that customers have access to increased capacity and we are delighted to support DUAL with access to capital.”
