CUSTOMERS

Coverholders and MGAs

London, the world’s specialist insurance market, is a hothouse for new ideas and concepts.
Underwriters are innovative and delight in niche products. Lloyd’s has extensive capacity and licenses in a great many territories around the world. With a wealth of skills and experience in a concentrated centralised location, London shares risks between multiple participants under common wordings and standards.
All these benefits have come with increasing and challenging regulatory and reporting requirements. Ever-expanding bordereaux data capture, performance indicators, complaint management and reporting requirements demand significant effort and expense. Combined with an outdated and manual escalation and payment process, these burdens may begin to outweigh the benefits of placing business in London.

Advent Insurance Management has reinvented the entire delegated authority process to redress the balance through a simpler, fully integrated, end-to-end solution that effortlessly meets all stakeholders’ requirements.

Advantage, a single-data-entry solution, provides automatic claims and policy validation against the right section, binder and year of account. Where services are outsourced, Advent Insurance Management provides a truly global service through operations across North America, the UK, continental Europe and Australia. Where policies and claims are managed directly by you, we can provide the Advantage platform for a fraction of the cost of licensing larger systems or adapting your own software.

Advantage allows cover holders and MGAs to enjoy the best of both worlds: all the benefits of working with Lloyd’s and London, without the onerous complexities and reporting demands.

Insurers and Managing Agents

Delegated authority is an important area of targeted growth for insurers.

But with claims and compliance costs rising as premium rates stagnate or fall, focus on insurer processing and administration costs is unprecedented. Reigning in these costs is essential for many books to remain viable. Teams of clerks and technical resource are already employed in mapping, processing, reconciling and reworking bordereaux, so simply adding more resource is not the answer. Equally, passing on reporting obligations to MGAs and Coverholders is counterproductive. It increases acquisition costs and raises the possibility of losing business to local markets with fewer reporting hurdles to leap. Fresh thinking is needed.
