Senior Cyber Underwriter, DUAL UK

About Scott

Scott's role revolves around assessing proposals for cyber insurance, ensuring they meet DUAL’s minimum standards, and addressing any concerns by asking clarifying questions. Once these steps are taken, Scott delivers formal quotations, with the ultimate goal of binding those terms to create a mutually beneficial relationship between the client and DUAL.

Scott's journey into cyber insurance began during a career move to Dubai in 2012. Initially asked to manage a Professional Indemnity (PI) book, Scott saw an opportunity to drive the development of Cyber in the region. His passion for cyber insurance stems from the dynamic nature of the product and the constant evolution of the market. He enjoys the challenges posed by the industry, especially navigating between hard and soft market conditions, viewing it as part of the fun.

Scott is keen to underwrite risks for Financial Institutions and Asset/Investment Managers—sectors that are currently in high demand. While these sectors carry high risks, their robust regulatory frameworks and maturity in cybersecurity make them attractive risks to write. Their comprehensive safeguarding of data and systems presents an exciting opportunity for Scott to craft tailored insurance solutions.
