DUAL Australia has announced the launch of a new product offering for Specialty Consumer Products (SCP), which will initially focus on extended warranty, accidental damage, theft and loss, and cancellation insurances.

The team will be led by Alan Brewis, head of Specialty Consumer Products. Brewis has over 20 years’ experience in the insurance sector, both local and international. He held posts at the Warranty Group/National Underwriting Agencies.

Leo Abbruzzo, Australian GM, commented on the appointment: “We are extremely excited about this next stage of product expansion in Australia with SCP as a completely unique product offering for DUAL. This is a niche market where Alan’s extensive experience and existing relationships will be a huge asset to the business.”

Abruzzo said DUAL has already identified opportunities with potential partners − brokers and direct clients who can provide understanding and innovation through product and delivery.

“We anticipate significant further interest as we launch to our broader network of brokers,” Abruzzo said.
