UK import brings a fresh approach to underwriting delivery Australasia Underwriting (AUPL) this month welcomes Alan Brett to its leadership team. Alan brings with him two decades of experience in underwriting, distribution and product development from the City of London and Lloyds. He will be focused on building distribution to accelerate AUPL’s growth in specialist sectors Property ISR and General Liability. AUPL’s Managing Director Alan Mackay said, “Alan’s appointment is another step in our mission to bring human centred expertise into what is now a marketplace so data-driven that many customers are finding themselves unable to access insurance products. Harnessing expert underwriting, and giving our brokers immediate access to that, is a fundamental component of our proposition. It’s what makes us different. Alan shares that ethos and we’re looking forward to the contribution he will make to the leadership team and the growth of the business.” Alan Brett, who will now lead commercial underwriting for AUPL said, “I’m excited to bring my experience gained through multinational insurers like AXA and DLG to Australasia Underwriting. I was attracted to the role due to AUPL’s purpose-driven approach and being able to focus on sectors that I’m personally passionate about. We’re building a fast-paced culture focused on integrity and wisdom, with a little bit of fun thrown in. I urge brokers that are not currently trading with us to get in touch to find out how we’re different.”
