Ansvar Insurance has launched a new product called Care and Welfare, which is aimed at care homes, organisations offering wraparound childcare solutions, and providers of care-related services. Ansvar is part of the Benefact Group, a charity owned, international family of specialist financial services companies.

Policyholders can select the covers they need from a selection including: public and products liability (including treatment malpractice), personal accidents, property damage (including property belonging to residents and visitors), equipment breakdown, and business interruption.

Adam Tier, head of underwriting at Ansvar, said: "In an increasingly challenging landscape, care providers are shouldering greater responsibilities than ever before. Our new Care and Welfare Insurance policy provides comprehensive protection for organisations and businesses that care for others.”
