Chubb Ignite is quick and easy to use and allows brokers to quote specialist insurance online and be bound by Chubb within minutes, with instant documentation available online or via email. The tool is backed up by a team of experienced local underwriters who are available to answer queries and provide support.
Other key benefits include:

• Electronic policy documents and debit notes issued immediately.
The product suite available on the platform will be expanded over time and the first product made available is Chubb’s Elite V Directors & Officers Insurance. Brokers will benefit from access to Chubb’s full Elite V policy wording, which is one of the widest in the market and comprises coverage features such as; preservation of the side A limit, securities claims and pre-investigation cover. In addition, extensions are offered for cyber privacy and confidentiality, environmental violation and mitigation of loss.
