Operating as an authorised representative of Envest's heavy motor specialist underwriter, ATL Insurance Group, TLI Underwriting is set to commence operations at the end of this month. While ATL continues to focus on small to medium-sized transport owner-operators, TLI will broaden the group's reach by catering specifically to the larger fleet segment with tailored products and underwriting expertise.
Richard Heilig, CEO of Envest Agencies, highlighted the significance of this development: "While ATL continues to focus on SME transport owner-operators, TLI allows us to broaden our reach and better serve the larger fleet segment with specialised products and underwriting expertise."
Leading TLI Underwriting is Pat Miller, formerly the CEO of PSC's Australian and UK broking operations. Joining him is Luke Sellars, who previously served as GT Insurance's Queensland manager and now takes on the role of Head of Underwriting at TLI.
Miller emphasised the existing gap in the market for dedicated service and support to brokers working with heavy motor fleet operators. "TLI Underwriting is here to fill that gap with a comprehensive [Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance-backed] insurance program that delivers real value to fleet businesses," he stated.
Envest Group, part of the UK-based Ardonagh Group, is one of Australia's largest privately owned insurance and financial services distribution groups, encompassing over 50 brands, including Aviso, PSC, and Resilium.
For fleet operators, this development signifies a more tailored approach to insurance solutions, potentially leading to better coverage options and more competitive premiums. As the transport and logistics industry continues to evolve, having specialised agencies like TLI Underwriting can provide the necessary support and expertise to navigate the complexities of heavy motor fleet insurance.
