Specialist underwriters for over two decades
We're an underwriting agency and Coverholder at Lloyd's, we assess the risk, write the policy, and answer the phone when you need to make a claim.
WHO WE ARE
A specialist underwriting agency, built on two decades of niche expertise
WorldWide Special Risks is not a broker or a comparison site. We are a specialist underwriting agency and Coverholder at Lloyd's, which means we assess and price the risk ourselves, and we're the ones who answer the phone when you need to make a claim.
For over 20 years we've provided specialist cover for event organisers, prize promoters, film producers, marketing agencies, sports clubs, broadcasters and businesses of every size in the UK and in more than 70 countries worldwide.
Direct underwriting access
You deal with our underwriting team directly not a delegated authority layer or a call centre.
UK and international risks
We can write risks in over 70 countries through Lloyd's, including complex multi-territory event and production risks.
Three specialist product lines
Event, prize, film & media, niche products requiring genuine underwriting expertise, not generalist commercial insurance capacity.
AM Best A (Excellent) security
The Lloyd's rating your clients need to satisfy venue, broadcaster and licensing requirements.
Three areas of specialist insurance
