Working with Shepherd
Shepherd received this submission for an upcoming renewal, and we promptly provided our appetite for the account. Within a few days of receiving the underlying details, our team submitted our initial proposal, working closely with the broker team to ensure it met the client's needs. Upon request, we provided an alternative proposal for a different layer within just one business day, allowing us to meet the timeline for the client meeting.

Why We Won
The Shepherd team was thrilled about this opportunity and worked closely with the broker to gain a deep understanding of the client's needs, which allowed us to secure the win. Our close and constant communication with the broker team proved to be crucial in ensuring our proposal accurately reflected those needs. Additionally, our ability to respond quickly and provide a last-minute proposal ultimately secured our placement in the tower.
