Overview
Private Client Holdings Risk Management services provides a professional risk service whereby we assess our clients’ commercial and/or personal risks with a view to providing the most appropriate insurance solutions available.
Our expert team identifies the threats and risks to which our clients are exposed and creates and implements effective strategies and plans to confront these – preventing losses or reducing the impact if a loss occurs. Our services cover specialist areas such as commerce, industrial, body corporate, marine and contract works, enabling us to provide a highly personal and professional service.
Our Philosophy
The Private Client Holdings philosophy towards risk management is to ensure that our clients are not exposed to any undue risks at any time. Our clients acquire assets over their lifetime and protecting these assets is as important, if not more so, than building those assets over time. Our focus at Private Client Risk is to ensure that your assets, moveable and immovable, are appropriately insured at a realistic premium.

Risk Process
At Private Client Holdings we first consider the risks our clients are potentially exposed to. We then consider the cost of their current risk protection if already in place. The next factor considered is their relationship with their current service provider and if the cover cost and relationship is all good we then consider the capacity of their supplier.
Importantly, do they run a call centre or outsourced administration? If they do, we can add value in terms of real people, ownership and non-call centre environment creating a personalized service. Once all these factors have been tested our team then look to add value in terms of the complexity of our clients’ requirements and the need for our services.
Further to this is our massive supplier choice and internal claims handling which complete our very special service experience.
