Blue Zebra Partners with New Underwriters for Home and SME Insurance

Under this multi-year arrangement, Chubb and AIG will each assume a 45% share of risk for every policy issued, while HDI Global Specialty will take the remaining 10%. Chubb will serve as the lead insurer on the panel, supporting products sold through brokers, including those within the Steadfast network.

This strategic move comes as Blue Zebra's contract with its previous underwriter, Youi, concludes. The new partnership is expected to provide greater stability and sustainability for Blue Zebra's offerings. Colin Fagen, Managing Director of Blue Zebra, stated, "Blue Zebra is committed to building a stable, sustainable portfolio and strengthening broker partnerships through these new underwriting partnerships."

For landlords and property investors, this development underscores the dynamic nature of the insurance market and the importance of staying informed about changes that may impact their coverage. Collaborations between underwriting agencies and insurers can influence policy terms, coverage options, and pricing, making it essential for property owners to regularly review their insurance arrangements to ensure they continue to meet their needs.
