Stuart Alexander said response to its newly formed Small Business Unit had been extremely positive.

The unit, headed by Paul Dyer, offers bespoke services for small and medium sized enterprises.

“Companies in all sectors know they need insurance but are often at a loss to find a package that perfectly fits their individual needs,” said Dyer.

“What we have done is come up with innovative packages to cater for the different requirements of different businesses and a fast level of service that fits in with their hectic schedules.”
