The only thing worse than your client not having any environmental insurance protection when they experience a pollution event, is finding out the environmental policy you placed for them will not cover the claim. Environmental policies are unlike any other and present a coverage minefield to the uninitiated. Specialty Wholesale Insurance Solutions (SWIS) Environmental Division has the knowledge and experience to understand your clients’ pollution risk and assure that they receive the correct coverage.
An inaccurate application response, a few additional or missing words hidden in a stack of endorsements, or a single document innocently missing from your submission can easily lead to a claim denial. If you are like most agents who aren’t really experts when it comes to pollution insurance, then you should not be putting your agency at risk of making a mistake that can ruin a customer relationship and trigger a major E&O claim.
Our goal is to deliver our resources and capabilities to the agent and insured in whatever fashion that fits the circumstances. In some cases, agents involve us in direct discussions with clients and/or their professional advisers in order to address questions and develop strategies on individuals’ transactions and insurance programs.
Our core objective is to make certain our agents and brokers enable their clients and prospects to make fully informed business decisions concerning environmental risk and insurance.
