Exhibiting at BIBA’s 2025 Conference, Munich Re Specialty’s presence at Manchester Central on 14 and 15 May took on a new level of size and scale for the business – with its largest stand yet.

The Conference once again broke its own records for delegates, with almost 10,000 people from across the UK insurance network in attendance, underlining the importance for Munich Re Specialty to put its best foot forward at such a prestigious market meeting.

The UK regional market is playing an important role in delivering on the vision for Munich Re Specialty. The Global Markets, UK business has been present for 40 years, and our success is made possible by a long-term partnership approach and our strong relationships with brokers.

Munich Re Specialty has recently appointed Neil Atkinson as Head of Underwriting for the UK, who will have a hands on and dedicated task to further the development of the Global Markets, UK business. The appointment of this new role emphasizes the company’s dedication to its clients and the UK regional market.

Throughout the Conference, we had the opportunity to reconnect with both new and existing brokers and partners. We deeply value the strong, long-term relationships we have cultivated over the years, and we remain committed to listening carefully to their feedback.

This helps us continually enhance our products, improve our value proposition and refine our claims process. The Global Markets, UK service proposition is built on a stable foundation of proximity and availability, which is evident through continued investment on a spread of offices and locations in the UK, allowing our teams to continue meeting brokers over face-to-face engagements. 

Over the last few years, through our underwriting expertise and by steadily building on our platform, we’ve been solidifying our offering and the value we bring to our customers.

As the market evolves, we recognize the importance of innovation and flexibility. Developing new products and offering adaptable solutions are key to ensuring we provide our broker partners and their clients with the most appropriate and effective options. 

We were proud to be the sponsors of the Wellness Zone at the BIBA Conference 2025. The range of activities offered in this area were appreciated by the attendees and the large number of visitors we saw on the 14 and 15 May in this area was a proof of that. From a puppy den and chair massages, reflexologist, to areas with headphones for people to disconnect and relax during the busy conference hours.
