Allianz Insurance Plc, the UK arm of Allianz Group, has teamed up with insurtech Dinghy to cater to freelance professionals.

Dinghy specialises in flexible app-based business insurance for freelancers, who are charged by the second and only for what they use. The partnership with Allianz UK will feature coverage for professional indemnity, public liability, and business equipment.

“We recognise that the world of employment is changing rapidly and our work in getting to this point with Dinghy has re-emphasised that evolution,” said Nick Hobbs (pictured), director of broker markets at Allianz Insurance Plc.

“With insure-as-you-work solutions expected to become more prevalent, partnering with Dinghy represents a great opportunity for Allianz. We are looking forward to sharing our expertise and providing flexible business insurance solutions for this fast growing sector of the economy.”
