Liberty Specialty Markets (Liberty), part of Liberty Mutual Insurance Group, has announced the launch of a bespoke proposition for mid to upper-mid sized retail corporations.
Following a successful pilot, the launch further supports Liberty’s regional investment strategy across the UK and Ireland.
With dedicated hubs in Manchester, Bristol and Dublin, and support from its London head office, Liberty will provide insurance programmes tailored to the specific needs of individual businesses.
In addition, Liberty will make underwriting, claims, and risk engineering expertise readily accessible, with experienced teams across its regional hubs delivering flexible solutions to client-specific exposures.
The teams will also offer risk mitigation insights based on existing and emerging risks within specific retail segments, which is particularly relevant for mid-sized businesses without dedicated in-house risk expertise.
Having developed a detailed understanding of each client through pre-inception site visits, Liberty will be well placed not only to mitigate risks but also to assist during claims, with greater clarity supporting faster, more accurate decisions.
Stuart Sutherland, head of UK retail, Liberty Specialty Markets, said: “Liberty is focused on engaging with clients as a long-term risk partner. The proposition announced today brings that approach to mid and upper-mid retail businesses and is particularly timely as the mid-market drifts further toward commoditisation.
“We’re there for our clients’ worst day and, by engaging with them before a loss with our integrated underwriting, risk engineering and claims approach, we can deliver faster, better informed and more responsive support when it matters most.”
