As reported in the March 2020 issue of Risk & Insurance, the environmental benefits of reduced coal burning have also resulted in underwriting capacity leaving that sector. Brokers had a tough time placing coverage even before the pandemic and recession.

“We had a fairly simple quote-share program among carriers in the U.S. and London,” said one director of insurance. “It was not complicated at all. Then came our March 2020 renewal into a market that was hardening quickly. We were left short of capacity despite a regulatory requirement for full coverage.”

The company had a simple combination of primary and excess layers which gave Aon’s David Reisinger a basis from which to build.

“Some of our incumbent carriers had slashed capacity,” said the director. “David was able to bring in some new carriers. Some markets were uncomfortable about writing us, but with his guidance we were able to get them comfortable by buying down deductible.”

Reisinger won further laurels helping another client step up to unexpected challenges.

“While I have been a leader in the legal department for more than 25 years at my firm, this year insurance was also added to my duties. Dave and his colleagues were instrumental in my success this year. I leaned on them greatly given the tight market. I needed their expertise in providing explanations and recommendations to leadership.”
