Acrisure London Wholesale has launched a new digital platform aimed at improving the way SMEs can access the London Market.

Developed with Verisk Specialty Business Solutions, Acrisure Connect is designed to offer a focused range of specialty insurance products for SMEs, including errors and omissions, sexual molestation liability, transportation and cyber cover.

Tom Quy, managing director at Acrisure London Wholesale, said: “Historically, SMEs have had limited access to the London Market due to high volumes and low premiums. However, this is a vastly underserved and high-potential segment. Acrisure is a trusted advisor to approximately 5% of SMEs in the United States, and Acrisure Connect is a major step forward in giving these businesses access to the London Market with the same level of sophistication and efficiency typically reserved for larger firms.”

Tim Rayner, CEO, general insurance for UK and Ireland, and Specialty Business Solutions, added: “Verisk is proud to partner with Acrisure on the launch of Acrisure Connect, a platform that represents a significant development in the modernisation of how small and mid-size businesses access the London Market."

Further product lines are expected to be added in future phases.
