Liberty Specialty Markets is set to become an early adopter of WTW’s digital trading platform for complex specialty risks, Neuron. The platform connects brokers and insurers in real time and Liberty Specialty Markets said it would help it address the challenges of a digitising market.

Carol Baker, head of digital strategy at Liberty Specialty Markets, said: “The London Market is at a fascinating juncture, where innovation and tradition converge to redefine how we jointly deliver better outcomes for clients. Our partnership with WTW gives brokers seamless access to our underwriting expertise. This initiative is a positive step towards a more connected market overall, strengthened as additional carriers and brokers join.”

Louise Smith OBE, global lead for Neuron at WTW, added: “Our collaboration is a significant milestone in our mission to intelligently connect global risks with smart capital and transform digital capabilities across the entire value chain.”
