Aviva expands financial institutions underwriting across UK

Aviva is expanding its Financial Institutions underwriting capabilities across the UK, adding four specialist underwriters to its regional network.

The insurer will provide Financial Institutions underwriting expertise through offices in the Midlands & South, North of England and Scotland, extending a proposition that was previously based in London.

The expansion is part of Aviva’s Global, Corporate & Specialty business and targets FCA-regulated organisations including investment managers, investment funds, building societies, mutuals, friendly societies and other financial services businesses.

Aviva’s Financial Institutions offering includes five products: Directors & Officers, Fund Directors & Officers Liability, Investment Management Insurance, Professional Indemnity and Crime cover.

The insurer said the regional expansion will give brokers faster access to underwriting decisions and technical support, while supporting the growth of its Financial Institutions business outside London.

The move reflects Aviva’s broader effort to strengthen its regional underwriting presence and provide specialist insurance expertise closer to brokers and customers across the UK.
