Sagicor Underwriting Limited
On October 4, 2007, Sagicor Syndicate Holdings Ltd (“SSH”) completed the acquisition of 100% of the share capital of Byrne & Stacey Underwriting Ltd (BSU), now rebranded to Sagicor Underwriting Limited (SUL). Sagicor at Lloyd’s has been Sagicor Underwriting's principal capital provider since its inception in 2000.
This acquisition secured the underwriting of SUL's book of business, and provided the opportunity to develop other product lines to distribute through SUL's 800 plus Brokers, and new product lines for the Regional Market to be distributed through web technology developed by Sagicor Underwriting.
SUL offers regional brokers a gateway to the Lloyd’s market place and A+ security through Sagicor at Lloyd’s, providing them with access to a number of product and business lines as well as the experience and expertise of its underwriters. SUL’s online platform provides intelligent risk solutions in a simple and efficient manner.
SUL aims is to make the process of quoting and issuing insurance policies as quick and easily as possible for its broker partners. With features created to help them, such as mid-term adjustments, text messaging to clients and medical screening, SUL has reduced the percentage of office-based quotes to less than 15%, with the majority now being transacted online at www.sagicorunderwriting.com
