ASIC Underwriting

ASIC's underwriting approach is based upon technical excellence in terms of understanding the intricacies of the portfolio and the exposures presented by each risk. The specific model being adopted by ASIC was created by Shevawn and Simon Barder, and has evolved from the Barders’ London Insurance training with the traditional leader in the excess and surplus market (Lloyd’s of London).

Central to this model is the constant monitoring of the portfolio by experienced primary and reinsurance underwriters and specialist analysts. Each portfolio is stress tested for frequency, severity and rate adequacy to ensure a ‘best in class’ account with optimum performance and returns. This model has been tried and tested since 2000.
