Regulated Outsourcing and Insurers
Regulated Outsourcing and Insurers

Outsourcing operations does not absolve regulatory responsibility. In fact, it can add an additional layer of risk to an insurer while offering business benefits.

We can steer you through the regulatory requirements and guidance, consider the risks of outsourcing with you, and advise on appropriate controls for your business, which are often different to nonregulated industries — all as an integrated part of our service offering.

Crucially, and unlike most other law firms, we lead these transformational projects from our insurance team. Its members are embedded in the industry and understand your business operations and products.
