Commercial Express’ Pritchard on opportunities with brokers in MGU model move

Managing director of Commercial Express, Duncan Pritchard, shares its broker agency, digital platform and product expansion plans as the business moves to a managing general underwriter model after teaming up with Fortegra.
Insurance Age revealed the deal between the managing general agent and its new capacity partner earlier this week.
The partnership conversations started at the British Insurance Brokers’ Association’s conference in 2024 while Fortegra was going through its licensing process, Pritchard, pictured, reveals.
“We wanted to do that transition piece to an MGU, and we were looking for a partner that was quite ambitious to match what we wanted to do but wasn’t on every other MGA’s panel,” he says.
