Travelers Insurance plans to open its first office in Scotland in January 2010, the company announced today.
The office will be located in Glasgow and will initially consist of a team of underwriting, risk management and business development staff to service the Scottish market. Travelers’ range of regionally-traded property and casualty insurance products will be available through this office to a variety of industries and professions including solicitors, architects, accountants and chartered surveyors.
Mike Bridge, Assistant General Manager, Sales and Distribution for Travelers commented: “We are pleased to be opening a Scottish regional office to more closely service our Scottish brokers and policyholders. With this new regional presence, Travelers will be better positioned to provide our breadth and depth of insurance coverages in Scotland.”
Travelers is currently finalising the recruitment of the team.
Previously, Travelers supported Scottish policyholders and brokers through its existing regional offices. The company currently has offices in London, Redhill, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds and Dublin.
