<strong>Annual</strong> report <strong>2009</strong><br />
1. Strong <strong>and</strong> growing<br />
market presence<br />
<strong>QBE</strong> is one of the world’s top 25 insurers<br />
<strong>and</strong> reinsurers <strong>and</strong> has been established in<br />
the UK since 1904. At <strong>QBE</strong> we underst<strong>and</strong> the<br />
importance of security in the insurance decision<br />
making process <strong>and</strong> the strength of our ratings<br />
<strong>and</strong> financial backing gives us a real advantage<br />
in the market.<br />
<strong>QBE</strong> is one of the world’s leading insurers <strong>and</strong><br />
reinsurers with offices in 47 countries, backed<br />
by A+ ratings by S&P <strong>and</strong> Fitch. Our approach<br />
is one of leading not following, so when it<br />
comes to product design or setting the terms<br />
<strong>and</strong> conditions we take the initiative.<br />
2. Entrepreneurial<br />
solutions to business risk<br />
We are always looking for solutions to business<br />
risks which means working closely with all<br />
parties to underst<strong>and</strong> their business <strong>and</strong> creating<br />
the right product for them.<br />
Based upon an appetite for tripartite<br />
partnerships with brokers <strong>and</strong> clients, built<br />
around shared information, our aim is always<br />
to find a competitive <strong>and</strong> effective solution<br />
looking far beyond the initial relationship. But<br />
just don’t take our word for it, in <strong>2009</strong> we won<br />
a number of awards including best insurance<br />
company – Underwriting Casualty <strong>and</strong> best<br />
Reinsurance company* <strong>and</strong> underwriting team<br />
of the year**.
