Constant product innovation keeps us one step ahead of legislative changes. And where business premises are concerned, that’s invaluable, which is why our cover extends to historical exposures, damage to biodiversity, business disruption and more.
Coverage Highlights
Companies are increasingly aware of their environmental liabilities. This is due to changes in legislation and regulation, and because of increased pressure on all organisations to behave in a socially ethical and environmentally responsible way.
To address these liabilities, our Premises Pollution Liability insurance offers a broad range of protection for gradual as well as sudden and accidental first and third party environmental liabilities.
We work with clients to help identify potential environmental risks, offering solutions that minimise impact on profitability. We have a range of solutions from traditional risk transfer for simple operational exposures to tailored programmes specifically designed for complex projects.
