Alta Signa has added Westfield Specialty International to its insurance capacity panel, enhancing its ability to underwrite Directors & Officers (D&O) and Financial Institutions (FI) risks across the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland.

This partnership introduces an additional €10m capacity, split equally between D&O and FI lines, bolstering Alta Signa’s existing Lloyd’s-backed panel.

The move strengthens Alta Signa’s position as a leading Managing General Agent (MGA) in Europe, ensuring broader insurance capacity and more comprehensive solutions for brokers and policyholders.

Westfield Specialty International’s expertise and robust capacity will complement our existing offerings and reinforce our ability to meet the evolving needs of brokers and clients across the EEA region and CH. We look forward to a productive partnership built on shared values of collaboration, integrity, and entrepreneurship.”

This strategic partnership adds €5m in D&O capacity and €5m in FI capacity to Alta Signa’s existing Lloyd’s panel, reinforcing the company’s dedication to expanding its insurance options and providing robust solutions for brokers and policyholders.

Alta Signa’s updated insurance panel now includes:
