Willis, a WTW business (NASDAQ:WTW) has today announced its return to the light and recreational general aviation market after a 30-year absence, marking a significant milestone in the company’s ongoing commitment to providing industry-leading insurance solutions.
The move has been enabled by the arrival of the Crispin Speers team, whose established structured solutions and expertise has allowed the team to broaden insurance offerings for the first time.
Through this expansion, Willis offers a fully comprehensive range of insurance solutions tailored to the unique needs of light and recreational general aviation operators, including microlights, balloons, gliders, commercial drones, as well as light fixed wing aircraft. In addition, Willis is now equipped to offer commercial insurance solutions for non-aviation risk exposures, by leveraging the expertise of its extensive network.
The arrival of the Crispin Speers team introduces established, turnkey services, underpinned by technology which allows the prompt and efficient handling of a large volume business offering.
John Rooley, Head of Global Aviation and Space at Willis said: “Our re-entry into the light and recreational general aviation sector closes a long-standing gap in Willis’s portfolio, enabling the delivery of an A-Z suite of insurance solutions. Clients can now benefit from a seamless, one-stop approach for all their aviation insurance requirements, backed by Willis’s global reach and trusted reputation.
“This expansion reflects Willis’s unwavering commitment to its clients, partners, and industry stakeholders. By broadening our capabilities and embracing innovation, we are confident in our ability to deliver market-leading insurance solutions and drive positive change across the aviation sector and beyond.”
