QBE North America said Friday that it has joined with AmWINS Special Risk Underwriters to launch a national excess property insurance program.
The nonadmitted program will principally target risks made up of a mix of soft occupancy — such as habitational, hospitality and retail — and manufacturing, the unit of Sydney-based QBE Insurance Group Ltd. said in a statement.
“QBE is excited to partner with such an experienced property MGA,” Glenn Skrynecki, senior vice president of property/casualty programs for QBE North America, said in the statement.
Katie Davies, president of AmWINS Special Risk Underwriting, said in a statement that “QBE brings the specialized expertise to help us meet the needs of our customers.”
QBE North America is partnering with Morris Plains, New Jersey-based High Point Underwriters L.L.C. and Louisville, Kentucky-based Midwestern Insurance Alliance L.L.C. to deliver a national workers compensation and occupational accident insurance program for the transportation market, according to a joint company announcement Monday.
