AXA Commercial has launched a new branch as part of its commitment to strengthening engagement and enhancing its offering to regional brokers.
The new branch, located in Southampton, will operate as a trading hub and have a dedicated underwriting team focused on new and existing businesses across AXA Commercial product lines.
“We are proud to have a network of branches across the UK, tailored to supporting local brokers and businesses with their specific needs. The team based in Southampton has a wealth of local market knowledge and is equipped to help brokers respond to the specific opportunities and challenges of the region,” said Sarah Mallaby, distribution and trading director, AXA Commercial.
The new branch will use data and insight to improve service and customer outcomes. It will also make underwriters more accessible and help them ensure that decision-making fully aligns with customers' evolving needs.
“Delivering the best for our customers sits at the heart of the AXA Commercial business strategy alongside our ambition to help businesses thrive today and tomorrow. With the opening of the Southampton branch, we are demonstrating our continued focus on supporting local brokers so they can in turn support local businesses,” Mallaby said.
Earlier this month, the AXA XL arm of AXA announced plans to expand its offering and capabilities to serve mid-market clients in the UK.
