What we bring to your business

  • Risk protection - Our risk control team works in partnership with our clients to provide a complete range of risk management support, including advice on protective measures to ensure your risk management strategy best protects your assets. Our expertise includes risk analysis, risk management strategy, business continuity planning and ongoing specialist advice.

  • Business impact analysis (BIA) - We work with you to understand the potential impact and cost of a major event at key premises. This is fundamental in revealing potential vulnerabilities and provides a foundation for building data-driven risk mitigation initiatives, or changes to your insurance programme structure and wording.

  • Business impact audit review - Building on the BIA, this audit puts greater focus on the financial impact of an event, ensuring your existing cover is fit for purpose. We will help you to de-risk ahead of any potential major claim, gathering key information for insurers and loss adjusters.

  • Programme structure design options - Our detailed analysis enables us to design a bespoke insurance programme with cover and limits that meet your specific needs now and into the future as your business evolves.

  • Major claims protocols and management - In conjunction with your key insurer and loss adjuster, we will work with you to design clear claims protocols in the event of a major loss event. This board-level roadmap encourages a stronger relationship between client, insurer and loss adjuster ahead of a major claim, which can work to expedite claim payments.

Ensuring the bankability of long duration energy storage

As renewable energy plays an increasingly vital role in the global energy mix, forms of long-duration energy storage (LDES) are vital to meet overall energy demand, manage price volatility, and ensure reliable supply during periods of low generation. But as energy demand continues to grow, developers are increasingly targeting longer durations, and more complex projects. Inevitably, this introduces new challenges and risks that must be managed to make LDES a bankable prospect.As renewable energy plays an increasingly vital role in the global energy mix, forms of long-duration energy storage (LDES) are vital to meet overall energy demand, manage price volatility, and ensure reliable supply during periods of low generation.
