Underwriting agency Blue Zebra has completed the full-scale launch of its new SME Insurance product, following a successful test run.

The product is now available on the underwriting agency’s platform to its 11,000 broking partners. Capacity is being provided by Youi and claims will be managed in partnership with specialist provider ProCare.

“The feedback during the short pilot has been fantastic,” MD Colin Fagen said. “That means that over 11,000 Zebra Lounge users will be able to access the SME product with comprehensive policy wording for business liability, property protection, business interruption, portable property, crime and equipment breakdown.”

He says the agency has plans to introduce more products next year, having enjoyed success with its recent new offers such as Commercial Motor and Blue Point Insurance, a new personal accident and sickness brand that it partnered with Point Insurance to launch in October.

“We’re focusing initially on the industries that are least impacted in the current level of economic uncertainty,” Mr Fagen said.

“In the future we will have a broad appetite to meet the needs of our brokers.

“Additionally, we expect to see lots of new business opportunities as brokers gravitate towards easy to use options with an insurance business that is focussed on building out a leading SME offering in the market.”
