Protecting our customers.Your self-drive hire fleet is your firm’s prime asset. Whether on display, parked, in depot or, preferably, in use they are at risk from damage, accident, vandalism, theft and misuse. The mix of vehicle types presents a unique set of risks too – from cars, pick-ups, vans and minibuses to short, medium and long wheelbase transits and tail lift panel trucks up to 7.5 tonnes.

In fact, just about everything your customers can drive without needing an HGV licence! Then there’s driver risk: because you have less control over customers than you have over employees, controlling the human liabilities is tricky - and that usually means high insurance premiums.

• Protection - On and off hire cover across collection and delivery• Claims - Claims handled in a timely & efficient manner by a

• Reliability - Access to financially secure markets• Flexibility - Annual premium payment options can be arranged

over 10 or 12 month periods that reflect seasonality and help protect your cash flow

We can also advise on additional ways to lower your risk profile, improve protection and cut premium costs - especially if your business is regarded as higher risk because of vehicle use or location - across areas like:

• Enhancements to physical site security and storage• Managing customer driver age and profile• Vehicle trackers, remote telemetry and forward-facing on-board

cameras for accident recording• A flexible approach to excess levels and the overall sums insured.

Strategic RISK magazine is one of the most respected, independent risk and insurance media titles available today and is the go-to source for news, research and market analysis. In the magazine’s 2016 UK Corporate Insurance Buyers’ Survey, published this November, 90 respondents from FTSE-listed corporates rated the insurance brokers they felt best delivered risk management solutions and service in a way that best matched or exceeded expectation in the areas most important to them. We’re delighted to say we came out top in all five service categories that included responsiveness, technical knowledge, innovation and understanding of changing customer needs. Granted those surveyed were from major UK corporates. However we apply those self-same principles of great service to every business client. Whether you’re an SME or a smaller PLC – in Littlehampton or Llanelli, Leicester or Lossiemouth, Ledbury or Londonderry.

ETHISPHERE AWARD 2016ARTHUR J. GALLAGHER

ARTHUR J. GALLAGHER NAMED ONE OF THE ‘WORLD’S MOST ETHICAL COMPANIES’ FOR FIFTH CONSECUTIVE YEAR

We have once again been recognised as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies, the only insurance broker to be awarded this distinction.

The award was made to our parent company, Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. by the Ethisphere Institute, an independent centre of research promoting best practices in corporate ethics and governance.

Now in its tenth year, the award recognises organisations that raise the bar for corporate behaviour and continue to go beyond making statements about doing business ‘ethically’ and translate those words into actions.

What does this say about Arthur J. Gallagher?Honourees not only promote ethical business standards and practices internally, they exceed legal compliance minimums and shape future industry standards by introducing best practices today.

According to Ethisphere, recipients have historically out-performed others financially, demonstrating the connection between business integrity and performance.

Only 131 companies worldwide have received the award this year, each acknowledged for having an inherent culture of ethics, compliance, governance and active corporate citizenship and responsibility programmes within their businesses. The full list of the 2016 World’s Most Ethical Companies can be found at www.ethisphere.com.

What the award means to us

Tom Gallagher, chairman of our International Brokerage business, said:

“Our corporate culture rests on the trust and integrity that our people engender in their relationships with customers,

colleagues and industry partners alike. We work hard to ensure that principles are always aligned with actions, and make sure that service excellence and social responsibility go hand in hand. So to be externally recognised as a leader in ethical business practices — and for the fifth year in a row — is testament to the fantastic efforts of all our people day in, day out. Well done everyone.”

When is the right time to undertake a Technical Audit?

This can be conducted at any time in the insurance period but, in our experience, this usually delivers the best results when undertaken away from the traditional renewal cycle. This allows time for us to fully understand your business and undertake a detailed analysis of your insurance needs and current programme.

Please contact your Development Executive to discuss how we can assist your customers manage their business risks.

Why Review your Insurance Arrangements?

••

How confident are you that your insurance programme will respond in exactly the way you expect it to, when you need to make a claim?

What is the Arthur J. Gallagher Technical Audit?

A Technical Audit is a review of your business and associated risks, using a fresh pair of eyes, together with a full review of your insurance programme. We then compare the insurance programme to your business to make sure it is fit for purpose and meets your needs.

A Technical Audit will assist with the purchasing decision so that you are making an informed choice about which risks to insure, and just as importantly, which risks not to insure. There should be no surprises when the time comes to make a claim.

Bene�ts of the Arthur J. Gallagher Technical Audit

Business Insurance Technical Audit

Driving best value from your insurance programme.

Following a con�dential Technical Audit for a prestigious retail chain, who had undergone signi�cant change in the previous 12 months, we undertook a full policy wording review and identi�ed some critical gaps in their current programme. For example:

••

Arthur J. Gallagher was appointed by the client to �x the issues we had identi�ed.

In addition to rectifying the gaps in cover, a premium saving of 25% was achieved by Arthur J. Gallagher at renewal.

Case Study

Businesses change all the time e.g. new products, services, locations, international expansion, and acquisitions to name a few. In contrast, insurance programmes often remain static, potentially creating gaps in cover. A Technical Audit will identify any gaps that may have developed so that they can be rectified before a claim arises.You need assurance that you are getting best value for money.Understanding the detail. Commercial policies contain significant amounts of information, extensions, restrictions, conditions and sometimes warranties. A Technical Audit will help you understand how your policies fit with your business.Programme structure. Is the current programme structured in the most efficient way to obtain the widest cover at the most competitive premium? A Technical Audit will evaluate the current placement and, if appropriate, provide alternative solutions.

A confidential and objective review so as not to conflict with existing insurer or broker relationships.Provide peace of mind that your current insurance programme has been rigorously reviewed. We will provide a range of options to rectify any deficiencies or duplication in cover which are identified. This results in a bespoke programme that precisely fits your risk profile and provides protection for your business assets and balance sheet.
