XL Catlin has enhanced an online underwriting platform to give design professional brokers capabilities for quick, single-point access to rate, bind and issue professional liability insurance coverage for architects, engineers, and other design professionals.

The technology is compatible with tablet and mobile formats to further assist in efficiencies for brokers. The system also integrates a digitalised application that allows a client to complete an online form, which uploads directly into the XL Catlin underwriting system.

Douglas Strong, chief underwriting officer of XL Catlin’s Design Professional business, said: “The design industry is dynamic and fast-paced. That’s why we’re speeding up the underwriting and delivery of professional liability insurance protection to keep pace with their quick-changing business demands and insurance needs.”

XL Catlin’s Design Professional business provides professional liability insurance for architects, engineers and design consultants.
