provider Broker Assistance has begun rolling out an enhanced online service system for new and existing customers. The suite of web based tools includes claims tracking and risk management applications. Nicholas Brand, director of Broker Assistance, says, “Managing a portfolio of vehicles, either as a fleet owner or a broker, requires detailed


information about an accident, as well as the repair process, and the various required services thereafter. The portal allows full access to file notes and general information relating to heads of claim. By providing our clients with access to this type of information, they can make a positive impact on their own exposures and loss ratios, track the progress of live claims, and run off comprehensive management reports.”

O’Connors LLP launches Insured-Legal


I


nsurance and regulatory law firm O’Connors LLP is launching Inured-Legal, to coincide with the Airmic Conference in Bournemouth. Insured-Legal will offer advice on such matters as: insurance provisions in commercial contracts; issues arising from mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures and outsourcing; captives; regulatory issues; drafting bespoke policy wordings; pre-litigation coverage advice; and service provider benchmarking. Says partner Paul O’Connor,


“Buying insurance involves putting in place some of the most important contracts a business enters into each year, as investor confidence in a company is determined by the strength of its balance sheet, which, in major part, is underpinned by its risk transfer arrangements. Market research, such as the recent Mactavish Report, suggests there is inadequate legal input into the contractual part of the process and this is the gap Insured-Legal aims to plug.”
