Flexibility
We understand that every risk situation is unique. To meet the individual needs of our client, we have designed our policies to be either issued as stand alone policies, as part of sectionalized programs or as partners in All Risk packages with prominent industrial property insurers. In this way, our Special Risks Division can work together with each client to provide the best coverage for every risk situation.
Global Capability
With the globalization of the world economy and many of our clients' interests, we have responded by expanding our capabilities. We are now able to tap into the considerable international strength of our affiliated companies - The HSB Group (www.hsb.com) and HSB-Engineering Insurance Limited (www.hsbeil.com). This allows us to increasingly respond to your international risk management needs.
Forestry
Our specialization gives us a greater understanding of risk
With highly unique exposures, the Forest Sector presents special challenges to the insurance industry. Our Special Risks Division has responded to these challenges through the formation of account teams of industry specialists who manage the types of risk presented by the Forest Industry.
Value Added Services
Our inspection specialists are trained in all aspects of the manufacture of forest products. These teams of specialists work closely with our Forest Industry clients through scheduled visits to help identify and manage risks on a regular basis. Subsequent to each visit the team issues a loss prevention report (available in either English or French).
Underwriting
We understand the unique processes and equipment inherent to the Forest Sector. Our specialized underwriters are able to provide custom designed policies that realistically address the exposures. BI&I can therefore provide insurance through a stand alone policy, as part of a sectionalized program or as a partner in an All Risk package.
