The Beazley Difference

BEING BOLD

Freedom lies in being bold. We dare to be different and seek bold possibilities to create more innovative, fair and satisfying outcomes for our clients, brokers and employees. From insuring the highest building in the world, to the first commercial lunar vehicle to operate on the moon - we boldly go where others won’t.

STRIVING FOR BETTER

Good is a start, but we go all-out for better.  A driven community of individuals relentlessly push the needle and creating value. From launching the market’s first dedicated ESG syndicate to the establishment of our business unit focusing on designing digital insurance solutions, we pride ourselves on always going above and beyond.  Simply put, at  Beazley we go to 11.  

DOING THE RIGHT THING

Acting with integrity in a straightforward, decent way is instinctive. Open and honest with others, we show respect and empathy however challenging the situation – demonstrated by our multi-award winning claims team.  Doing the right thing makes for a fair-minded, rewarding environment and makes work and life better for all.

Examples or Scenarios

An oil and gas company experiences a well blow out during drilling operations. The priority is to implement the blowout contingency plan to respond to the incident and ensure all personnel are safe. If the operator has control of well insurance they will know they have cover for the costs associated with regaining control of the well, cleaning up pollution as well as getting the well back in working order. Once we are notified of a control of well claim we work with our Insureds, their broker and the appointed loss adjusters to establish the chain of events, the extent of the covered loss and appoint the costs as quickly and efficiently as possible.
