Our Services
Our client service approach to you as your General Insurance Broker.
Tailoring Your Insurance Program
We carry out a needs analysis to identify potential and existing risks to your business – taking into account all matters over the 12 months. We check the market by researching insurers to present you with a personalised and tailored insurance program recommending the best-suited option for you and your business.
Placing Cover
We implement your tailored insurance program with the carefully selected insurer, confirming and communicating the details of your policy and premiums.
Delivering Ongoing Service
We handle the day-to-day management of your insurance policy, holding regular review meetings if required to make sure you continue to have the right level of protection. We will provide recommendations for any changes necessary to cover any new or emerging risks to your business.
Managing Your Claims
If you have a claim, we support you through the entire claims process – negotiating with insurers and third parties to ensure the swift payment of any benefits. We maintain up-to-date claims statistics and analysis on your claims frequency, severity, causes and trends so we can get the best outcome for you when it’s time to renew your policy.
Renewing Your Cover
As the end of the year approaches, we will review your insurance program, including any changes or claims you made throughout the year and put together a proposal for the following year recommending the best option for you and your business.
Risk Management
We can assist you to identify the day-to-day risks which your business faces, help you to decide how to handle those risks and manage those risks which you decide to transfer to insurance. We will then help you find the right insurance solutions for your needs.
Sum Insured Checks
We have access to sum insured calculators that can assist you in correctly calculating and setting an adequate sum insured for your business, including Business Interruption to reduce or avoid underinsurance.
Are You Underinsured?
You are at risk of being underinsured if:
- You haven’t updated your insurance cover to reflect the growth of your business
- Your insurance is based on an outdated replacement cost of your business assets
- You are covered for damage to your business premises but have not considered other forms of financial loss such as business interruption or management liability.
When you’re running a business, sorting out your insurance cover often drops to the bottom of your never-ending to-do list. That’s where we can help. We do the hard work of reviewing your insurance strategy, adapting your cover as your business changes and giving you peace of mind that your business is properly insured.
Claims
We can help get you the best claims outcome – because we work for you and not the insurers.
Claims Management
Your claim is our number one priority. One of the benefits of using Edge Insurance Services is having one point of contact for all your insurance needs including making an insurance claim. We take care of the entire process by working closely with you and the insurance company, third party valuers, assessors, repairers or specialists to help you get the best possible outcome and we keep you informed every step of the way.
