We navigate the risk cover process to tailor a solution the meets a client’s specific needs from local and international underwriting market places.
As a Lloyd’s Open Market Correspondent (OMC 203999), we advise on and place cover directly into the Lloyd’s and London specialty markets. That gives clients faster, more direct access to specialist capacity for risks the local market can’t always absorb.
Together with execution partners, we develop; finance and operate projects for specific clients in their pursuit of cleaner and sustainable energy within their operations, allowing our clients to focus on their core business with provision of this service as support of their operations.
We provide niche non-life brokerage services for commercial clients looking to protect their assets from either physical damage or liability, through our mandates with local and international underwriters, for risks such as:
– Commercial
– Engineering
– Marine
– Nuclear Civil Liability
We offer custom advisory services through our venture capital platform, which allows us to make calculated speculative advice most likely to yield good returns within the sustainable energy industry.
Cover for the assets and technologies behind South Africa’s energy transition — solar, wind, storage, biomass and gas — across construction, operation and ancillary risk. We also place cover for the wider environmental technology space: waste-to-energy, pollution clean-up, green hydrogen and carbon capture.
Construction and erection all risks cover, plus advanced loss of profits and delay-in-start-up (ALOP/DSU) protection for projects under construction — informed by our own experience developing and building out solar assets.
Industrial and commercial property cover, including business interruption and terrorism & political violence extensions, placed into Lloyd’s-backed South African property facilities for clients who need capacity beyond the local market.
Cover for cargo and commodities in transit — relevant to clients importing plant, equipment and components, or moving goods as part of a wider trade or project supply chain.
Professional indemnity, directors’ & officers’, and medical malpractice cover for healthcare establishments and practitioners, plus nuclear suppliers’ liability for companies involved in the design, manufacture or maintenance of components for nuclear installations — built to complement, not duplicate, a client’s existing general liability programme.
Non-payment insurance for export, trade and project finance; surety bonds as a competitive alternative to bank guarantees; and political risk cover against expropriation, currency inconvertibility, political violence, breach of contract and arbitration award default — for clients and financiers exposed to counterparty or country risk.
Weather hedging, geothermal dry hole, cyber, deal risk, proxy revenue swaps, supply chain and reinstatement/bonds cover — the less conventional risks that sit alongside a project’s core insurance programme.
We are one of the few South African intermediaries combining hands-on energy asset management experience with specialist Lloyd’s market access — so advice and cover are built around how energy assets are actually financed, operated and maintained.
