4 Crafting unique solutions for unique businesses. BUSINESSES ARE LIKE SNOW FLAKES If there s one thing that forty years of experience has taught us, it s that no two businesses are the same. With this in mind, all staff who have a role in an account have a full understanding of the operations of the Client s business and are chosen for their specialist skills in being able to respond to the particular needs of that Client. Beyond this, each of the Clients within our firm have their account controlled by a Principal and Equity holder within our firm. With Clients that have a Head Office and Operating Divisions, it is our approach to develop a relationship at both levels in order to ensure a full understanding of the risks involved and allow an effective reporting and feedback structure in relation to the implementation of risk management processes throughout the Organisation.

5 RISK PROFILES: ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL At Finn Foster, we consider ourselves to be tailors of risk management solutions. Our focus is always to accurately assess the individual risk profile of each of our Clients before designing a bespoke solution that appropriately addresses the exposures. Simply arranging an Insurance Policy does not address the real issues affecting a Client s business and their risk profile. It is necessary to develop a solution that will work for the medium to long term, not simply provide an apparent solution designed to attend to the insurance needs of this year. WE STAND BY YOUR CLAIMS It is our firm belief that the value of any Insurance Programme lies in its ability to respond quickly and efficiently to claims. Through the successful settlement of many claims over the years, we have proven our ability to design programmes that achieve this result. As part of our role we assist Clients to prepare and submit claims as well as follow the progress of all claims to ensure the best possible resolution in the least possible time. We achieve these results with our Clients by working closely with all levels of management to identify areas of risk within the business. We determine the best way to deal with that risk and then design, implement and monitor a fitting risk management strategy to address the issues that have been identified. This approach also serves to familiarise employees within the Client s organization with the concept of Risk Management and the role that an Insurance Programme plays in conjunction with the operation of the business.

6 Every insurance service at your fingertips. Tailoring and managing successful risk-management strategies is as much about the right people as it is about comprehensive and flexible products. After forty years in insurance and risk-management, Finn Foster has a unique perspective on what constitutes the right people - and we re proud to say that we currently employ more than 40 of them. In addition to the 5 Broking Divisions of the Company we also have a dedicated SME Division, Financial Services Division and Claims Division. At all times Client s have access to our Company s entire resources in relation to their Insurance and Risk Management requirements. It is our practice to develop a core Team that will be responsible for the Day to Day Management of the account - and who will be able to satisfy all requirements in relation to the Insurance Programme. In addition to the core Team, at least two other Principals of the Company will be familiar with all aspects of the Client s Insurance Placement and Risk Management Strategies. This allows continuity of communication in the extremely unlikely circumstance that a member of the Core Team is not able to be contacted. Being available and ready to act on behalf of our Clients goes to the very core of the Finn Foster service offering. So, when we say that our people are your people, rest assured we re not speaking metaphorically. Our people are your people.
