New risks and a continuously changing legal landscape pose significant challenges for many professions. Our liability experts offer you appropriate reinsurance cover for your liability insurance risks.
Coverages include General Liability, Products Liability, Products Recall, Liquor Liability, Railroad Protective/Owners & Contractors Protective Liability, Pollution/Environmental Impairment Liability, Commercial & Personal Umbrella, Homeowners/Householders Liability, and Workers’ Compensation.
The General Liability landscape is turbulent, diverse, and evolving – but with over 100 years in the business, we’ve weathered it all. The depth and breadth of Gen Re’s experience provides a unique three-dimensional grasp of General Liabilities’ many classes, coverage forms, and jurisdictions. We support carriers that are new to the GL line as well as those writing challenging classes like construction, habitational, or manufacturing. Our expertise and broad risk appetite empower our clients to write a wide array of profitable business.
At Gen Re we have been providing Umbrella reinsurance in the U.S. for more than 55 years and are continually investing in this volatile line of business. With our clients we share our expertise as well as information about current trends we are monitoring with our dedicated line of business underwriters. We also offer underwriting, pricing, forms, marketing, and claims support for this unique product.
When offering Workers’ Compensation, underwriters must consider issues such as challenges to exclusive remedy, return to work, opt-out WC, medical marijuana, medical inflation, medical innovation, investment income, the ACA, opioids, data analytics, and a medical system that at times can seem to work against the injured worker and Workers' Comp statutes and guidelines.
Here are some of the upcoming industry events our team is attending in the next few weeks – along with some Gen Re-hosted events. Please stop by and say hello!
