Exploring a quota share is a great way to ensure your client’s projects remain protected and profitable despite challenges.

As these threats become more sophisticated, insurance brokers will be crucial in guiding clients toward tailored insurance solutions that address immediate financial losses and long-term recovery strategies.

When a large telecommunications company faced mounting losses to their fleet, its future insurability was in question. With claim frequency rising and severity spiking, it was at risk of becoming uninsurable and potentially losing access to the coverage its operations depended on.

The result? The situation stabilized, losses declined, and the client remained in our portfolio, stronger than before.

We’re pleased to share key updates and milestones from Intact Insurance Specialty Solutions. From strong financial performance to leadership growth and product innovation, these developments underscore our ongoing commitment to supporting our valued partners with strength, stability, and comprehensive coverage.
