Acrisure launches digital gateway to the London market
Acrisure London Wholesale has launched Acrisure Connect, a new digital platform designed to streamline access to the London market for small and mid-size businesses.
Built in collaboration with Verisk Specialty Business Solutions, part of Verisk , and supported by Lloyd’s and Flux Syndicate 1985, the platform is positioned as a digital gateway for specialty risks. Acrisure said the platform is designed to improve efficiency and scalability for brokers placing SMB business into the London market.
At launch, Acrisure Connect offers a focused set of specialty products including errors and omissions, sexual molestation liability, transportation, and cyber insurance, with additional lines expected in future phases. The platform is intended to simplify placement, broaden market access, and provide partners with enhanced underwriting tools and data-driven insights.
“Historically, SMBs have had limited access to the London market due to high volumes and low premiums. However, this is a vastly underserved and high-potential segment. Acrisure is a trusted advisor to approximately 5 percent of SMB’s in the United States and Acrisure Connect is a major step forward in giving these businesses access to the London market with the same level of sophistication and efficiency typically reserved for larger firms. By combining the deep expertise of the Acrisure London Wholesale team, Acrisure’s expansive reach, and Verisk’s cutting-edge technology and data insights, we’re enabling specialist London market solutions to serve SMBs across the U.S. and globally like never before.” – Tom Quy, Managing Director, Acrisure London Wholesale.

By combining our technology with Acrisure’s strength of distribution, we’re able to unlock new opportunities and bring greater dynamism, accuracy, and efficiency to the placement process. This collaboration exemplifies how innovative technology can drive meaningful change in the insurance ecosystem.
