Blenheim Partnerships, part of the White Bear Group, today announces the launch of its specialty trade-related managing general agency. The MGA is backed by Blenheim Underwriting alongside other well-known markets, including some Lloyd’s syndicates.
The launch follows the appointment of Ed Parker in the second half of 2025, who will lead the business. Blenheim said Parker brings a wealth of market-leading experience and expertise in the marine trade disruption and political risks arenas, Blenheim said.
The MGA, with line sizes varying from US$4.5 million to US$26.75 million will insure:
- Consequential loss / trade disruption insurance (TDI)
- Political risk
- Contract frustration
- Trade credit
Each product has been developed to help to protect an insured’s interest against multiple trade-related risks. Clients targeted include financial institutions, commodity traders, project financiers/supporters and importers/exporters of myriad goods and services.
“This MGA brings extensive market experience and knowledge of wordings with a proven track record in innovation and bespoke underwriting to create a leader in its field,” Parker commented. “Under the Blenheim banner, we have a first-class and nimble team with the freedom to innovate and underwrite. We are looking to listen to what clients’ needs are, and to address these needs by being relevant and using our experience.”
