WTW, Canopius and Verita launch property facility
WTW is introducing a new property facility with Canopius. This exclusive property option, Client Edge Facility, is now available in the market and was developed by a consortium of industry leaders from WTW Corporate Risk and Broking, North America, Canopius US Insurance, Inc., and Verita Capital Solutions.
