Freemans Marine to cover east coast for Lloyd’s
The marine division of claims specialists Freemans has been appointed a Lloyd’s agent for Sydney and Melbourne, extending the company’s coverage to the whole of the east coast.
Freemans Marine provides marine claims settlement and surveying and adjusting services. The company will replace several other regional loss adjusters which have been providing Lloyd’s with claims services.
National Manager John Cupitt told insuranceNEWS.com.au the appointment follows a successful Lloyd’s audit of the company’s Brisbane operations.
“Part of the reason for the move is the consolidation of local territory, having one provider to serve a larger area,” he said.
Freemans Marine was initially appointed Lloyd’s Agent for Queensland and Northern NSW in April last year.
The company will serve the rest of NSW, Victoria and Tasmania from July 1. New staff will be recruited to its existing offices in Sydney and Melbourne.
