Placement Independence

What placement independence means

Berkley Consult is placement-independent. Its work does not depend on whether an insurance, reinsurance or risk-transfer placement goes ahead. Its role is to support better understanding, better governance and better decision-making  and not to push a transaction.

How it works in practice

Assess & frame

Berkley Consult provides independent governance, intelligence and modelling to frame the decision.

Refer

Where broking, placement, reinsurance structuring or regulated activity is required, the matter is referred.

Execute

The appropriate licensed or specialist Berkley entity carries out the placement or regulated work.

Why it protects clients

Placement independence protects the client, the ecosystem and the credibility of the advice. Decisions stay focused on quality rather than transaction outcome: advice is never contingent on whether a placement proceeds, roles stay clear and separate, and governance and intelligence work remains independent.
