This segment is known for innovation and technological intensity- creating complex insurance placements.  So “SUM has deepened its partnership with Lloyds’ specialists in this field”, said Jeff Somerville, President, “who work collaboratively with us to deliver an inimitable solution aimed at Biotech, Medical & Health product, and R & D companies”.  SUM’s policy comes in a menu format including:

General liability: for premises and operations, with the usual extensions;

Products liability: with appetite for substances and ingredients most can’t cover, including US sales;

Clinical Trials Liability: admitted in over 65 territories including the US, and with no-fault compensation;

Errors and Omissions: essential for service companies such as contract research organizations.

We offer easy access to up to $100M in A rated capacity, competitive commissions and rapid service.

SUM has assembled broad coverage, quality capacity and industry leading expertise together to solve even your most challenging placements. Our bundle of CGL, Professional, Property & Crime coverage is the most flexible in the country. SUM can write these coverages mono-line or as a package to meet your needs.
