While program carriers have found property and casualty business opportunities in everything from auto repossessors to fine arts in recent months and years, some are eyeing new business potential in the accident and health space.
Craig Fundum, president of Zurich Programs and Direct Markets, explained that while there aren't necessarily a lot of new a&h programs popping up in the marketplace, Zurich sees a "greenfield" opportunity on the a&h side of the program business insurance segment because the Schaumburg, Ill.-based carrier has just written a&h on a program basis before.
He explained that Zurich, which has previously written a&h insurance through worksite marketing and individual risk group approaches, is now "going to be aggressively looking for program partners."
