Covéa Insurance launches new commercial product - Excel Business Combined

Covéa Insurance continues to develop its commercial lines proposition with the launch of another new product.   Excel Business Combined is an all-encompassing property and casualty proposition for clients in the mid-corporate sector. This product comes with a wide range of innovative product enhancements including new cyber cover. Added to this, the product has a completely modular wording that allows brokers to tailor cover to their client’s unique needs. The product was launched in January to a select number of brokers and has already been well received during this pilot phase, many appreciating the speed with which the paperless wordings and documentation can be delivered.

Access to key decision makers through a network of 9 regional underwriting offices supports brokers in writing larger risks, backed by a same day response commitment. Covéa Insurance already has plans to expand the cover available with this product through a set of trade specific derivative covers that will be launched later this year.

Gavin Dollings, Director of Commercial Underwriting explained;

“We wanted to offer brokers a comprehensive suite of covers that could be completely tailored to the client’s needs, giving them exactly the level of cover they need, when they need it.   All of our products are backed by an award-winning claims service and dedicated teams committed to putting brokers and their customers at the heart of everything we do.”
