The British Insurance Brokers’ Association (BIBA) has announced a partnership deal with QBE.

“QBE is a leading global insurer with an established footprint and track record in the UK. It has become an important partner to regional brokers and I very much welcome them into the BIBA family,” said Graeme Trudgill (pictured left), CEO at BIBA. “Our broker members are keen to access their technical expertise and I am sure our members will find the wide range of products offered by QBE of great interest.”

QBE has expressed its intent to grow its business in the UK and is now operating through eight regional offices.

“This year, we have focused on increasing our broker support with the appointment of heads of trading in our regional offices. As a result, we have materially grown our regional business during the last 18 months,” said Andy Fitzgerald (pictured right), director of UK Regions for QBE European operations. “We’ve been clear that growing our business in the UK is a priority, and we are delighted with the progress we are making.  Partnering with BIBA is the next logical step on that journey, and we look forward to supporting even more BIBA members through this partnership.”
