A Refreshing Approach to MGA Partnerships

Market Briefing Underwriting

Zoom

30th April 2025 • 13.00 - 14.00

About this session

Peach may well be the best MGA capacity provider that you’ve never heard of, but we believe that our refreshing approach to delegated partnerships is something worth shouting about! Although we are a relatively new brand, we are underpinned by the 125+ year UK heritage of NPA Insurance.

This briefing will tell you about our roots, what the Peach brand stands for and our flexible underwriting outlook on MGA relationships.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this session, delegates will be able to: –

Describe the benefits of working with Peach for both MGAs and end customers
Summarise Peach’s underwriting appetite and approach to assessing new MGA partnership opportunities
Outline how Peach’s flexibility with capacity management could help safeguard the future of an MGA
Outline how the Peach brand seeks to differentiate them from more traditional Insurer brands
