Underwriting agency Dual Asia has teamed up with leading Hong Kong insurer MSIG to provide professional indemnity and directors’ and officers’ insurance in the territory.

Dual Asia Pacific MD Damien Coates says the partnership is an “unrivalled alliance” in Hong Kong, with Dual’s specialty in underwriting financial lines complemented by MSIG’s penetration in the local middle market.

“Hong Kong provides us with an excellent springboard from which to expand further throughout the Asia Pacific region,” Mr Coates said. “We believe the insurance market in Hong Kong offers an excellent opportunity to win profitable business.”
