What We Do


We serve as a resource to help companies assess risks and exposures, and to structure appropriate, cost-effective methods to mitigate, treat or transfer risks (including use of insurance), contributing to the sustainability of the business.

We offer early, pro-active involvement with project sponsors and companies so that clients benefit from the Group's experience and input in risk identification and treatment, at both corporate and project levels.

Specifically, the Insurance Services Group can assist with
  • risk assessment and guidance on mitigation, transfer and treatment
  • input into risk philosophy or risk management strategies to help identify exposures that can be handled internally, and those which are best transferred to other parties, including insurers
  • sharing of risk management best practice for regions/industries
  • guidance on ways to reduce costs
  • sharing of regional and industry data on insurance pricing, terms and conditions
  • input into selection process for external advisors/brokers
  • claims "assistance" with insurers
  • training
