Paul Hodgson, Underwriting Director, Commercial, at MMA commented:
“Achieving the growth we had planned across the regional offices is fantastic news. The positive impact this growth has on diluting our expense ratio means we can continue to enhance our broker proposition in 2012 through further recruitment and product enhancements.
“The launch of the Motor Trade Combined product in August as well as the increasing underwriting appetite demonstrates long term commitment to our regional network which is proving an increasing success with our target broker partners.”
