PMR Diamond Arrow Award- Gerhard de Bruin, Lucian Carciumaru, Catherine Berry, and Mitch Marescia.

PMR.africa has announced the winning agencies in its annual national survey on Underwriting Managers (UMAs) in South Africa and Camargue has again been voted Top PI/Liability UMA in the category: Professional Indemnity Cover.

“The PMR.africa survey has established a benchmark of excellence in the industry through these awards and Camargue is really pleased to once again have been recognised and included in this prestigious line up of industry frontrunners,” says Camargue Managing Director, Mitch Marescia.

The results were based on telephonic interviews with a 120 strong national sample and respondents were invited to evaluate and rate companies on 11 attributes, including: Adaptability; Attitude; Competence; Confidence level of the underwriter; Financial strength of the underwriter; Full authorisation to accept/agree claim; Innovativeness; Know-how of advisors; Quality; Reputation (i.e. perception of the company’s brand, integrity, CSI; and Speed. Each attribute was rated on a scale of 1.00 to 5.00, where 1.00 represented poor and 5.00 outstanding. Ratings were based on perceptions - not on the company’s financials.

Camargue received the highest ratings in the Professional Indemnity Cover category, with a mean score of 4.13 out of a possible 5.00, and accepted the coveted Diamond Arrow Award at the awards breakfast this week.
