Contingency

We use our decades of combined experience and expertise to offer a dedicated, bespoke service to a wide range of businesses in the sports, leisure and entertainment industries. This is supported with a well resourced claims team with expertise in the class.

Introduction

The live events industry is booming, and with it the need for specific, appropriate and innovative contingency insurance has never been higher. At Convex, we recognise that now more than ever we need to use our expertise and creativity to work with brokers and clients, to provide the right cover, at the right time and at the right price.

Who we do business with

We cater for clients in all sub-classes of contingency. Our specialism is event cancellation for major sporting events, theatre productions and conferences, trade shows and exhibitions and we have a strong appetite for rock and pop non-appearance.

Whoever we’re working with, broker or client, we see real value in building long-term relationships, and we continually strive to improve the quality of the products and services we offer.

How we work

We stand out in a crowded market for our service and our product innovation, all underpinned by a 5 strong team with over 30 years of combined industry experience in event management, insurance broking and underwriting.

This expertise gives us the creativity and confidence to consider a broad range of risk in all aspects of the class including market exclusive cyber occurrence (act) coverage and market leading CBRN Terrorism capacity

We have extensive global licensing, we offer multi-year deals and long-term agreements and we write on IUA, Lloyd’s and Convex contingency wordings, even working with clients to design their own.

Convex employ political, security, medical and meteorological advisers to help us to understand the wider context of your risk. We do not just follow the market. Our data-driven approach means that your risks are in safe hands.
