Global broking and advisory firm WTW says Liberty Specialty Markets will be an early adopter of its digital trading platform, Neuron.

WTW says Neuron connects brokers and insurers in real time, simplifying and accelerating the trading of complex specialty risks while enhancing efficiency across the insurance value chain.

Liberty says the partnership will expand its digital capabilities, offering brokers a faster, more flexible way to trade risks while enabling tailored portfolio underwriting solutions. 

“We’re embracing advanced technology to make the risk placement process fast and frictionless for follow business,” Liberty head of digital strategy Carol Baker said.

“The London market is at a fascinating juncture, where innovation and tradition converge to redefine how we jointly deliver better outcomes for clients. 

“Our partnership with WTW gives brokers seamless access to our underwriting expertise. This initiative is a positive step towards a more connected market overall, strengthened as additional carriers and brokers join.”

Louise Smith, global lead for Neuron, says WTW is delighted that Liberty will be an early adopter of the platform.

“Our collaboration is a significant milestone in our mission to intelligently connect global risks with smart capital and transform digital capabilities across the entire value chain.”
