About underwriting
The process of underwriting enables us to decide if we can offer your clients the cover they've applied for and what their premium should be.
The application process involves a set of questions - captured on Adviser Hub or a paper application form - which help us to build a clear picture of your client and the risk factors which may increase the likelihood of a claim.

Honest and accurate disclosures
Please ensure your clients take care to answer all questions honestly and fully during the application process. If they miss any information out or give us misleading information - this may mean that a future claim will not be paid.
