Identifying business risks, prioritising and managing them is much easier to talk about than to put into practice. However, as Brokers appreciate, Risk Management should be a priority for all, be they SME’s or large international businesses.
Why? Because of the competitive advantage available for those who are proactive, such as:
In the first instance, our specialist and experienced Underwriters will offer you a pragmatic insight into what makes an attractive risk. In respect of liability matters we can offer thoughts on your client’s contracts and changes to standard operating terms, how we see them compare to market practice and how for instance a new contract could be negotiated into a fairer balance between risk presented by the contract and the reward (income) available from it.
For your clients who have large storage facilities or complex legal relationships with their customers. Businesses who get involved with heavy lifts or difficult lifts may benefit from a pre-shipment survey, or a loading survey. Perhaps a shipment from a difficult territory. Customers shipping high value goods may benefit from advice. Warehouses who are making changes to internal racking may find it useful to discuss replacement sprinkler head types. Identifying the weaknesses of a supply chain or perhaps couriers writing new contracts for their customers. All those examples could benefit directly from or through Fiducia MGA, where we can offer real, tangible, professional and experienced help.
Risk Management can sometimes be a quick conversation with our experienced personnel or meeting with the client. It can be assistance finding the right specialist Solicitor to write a new contract or help finding the right security product.
