About

Provided by Clyde & Co LLP

We’ve been at the heart of global commerce for nearly a century, helping the insurance market navigate an ever-changing risk landscape.

Today, the risks that insurers and their insureds face are becoming ever more interconnected and complex wherever they operate around the world. Whether that’s driven by the digital revolution, geopolitical tension and uncertainty, the existential threats posed by climate change or the ever increasing legal and regulatory risks faced by organisations and their directors and officers, the world is increasingly unpredictable and volatile.

All this calls for an agile and informed response. Our global teams use their deep insurance sector knowledge and commercial understanding to advise on issues such as dispute resolution, multi-jurisdictional litigation, coverage issues, contentious regulatory proceedings, policy wording issues, product development, corporate and commercial services, and recoveries.

From the smallest claim to the most complex risk, our in-depth, on-the-ground knowledge is supported by a truly interconnected global approach. This combination of local insight and global network allows us to offer rapid access to expertise wherever you operate. We can help you navigate these risks and futureproof your business.
