Berkley Canada focuses on establishing strategic relationships with large insurance partners who can provide a significant portfolio. Berkley Canada offers underwriting capability for distributors with their own front-end sales and fulfillment functionality, whether for individual policy sales, group or affinity business or employee benefit plans. This allows our distribution partners to control and manage their own processes. We make it easy to do business with us.
Alternatively, we can offer a white label sales solution through our Third Party Administrators’ call centres or a strategic partnership with Berkley Canada distributors who specialize in travel insurance.
While Berkley Canada has standard insurance products, we are able to provide customized coverage and pricing to meet the needs of our distribution partners.
