Our appetite for Professional Services


We prefer businesses that:
  • are well-established and financially stable
  • have a proactive approach to reporting changes to the risk
  • place a high importance on keeping up to date with legislation and trade issues
  • document HR procedures appropriately
  • are protected against fire and unlawful access.

These are our core preferences but we’d still like to hear from you about other well-managed risks:
  • non-manual trades
  • architects (excluding risk involving basements and swimming pools) 
  • accountants (excluding tax avoidance or mitigation)
  • engineering consultants
  • management consultants
  • estate agents
  • advertising, marketing and PR consultants
  • market research
  • recruitment consultants
  • other office based trades.
