Our Approach

The AXIS MGA Department has a thorough due diligence process that evaluates both the business opportunity and the capabilities of the MGA. We identify and partner with expert MGAs by product and area. We do not saturate the market with small, often competing authorities.

Owing to only a limited number of relationships worldwide, we are able to tailor and operate each authority to suit the specific requirements of each of our MGA partners and the business. We design products that provide our MGAs with a competitive advantage, and we establish basic underwriting criteria that give our MGA partners the ability to manage the business locally.

Portfolio management tools enable us to support our MGAs effectively. We believe in generating success for all parties in the relationship, using a transparent, pro-active business planning process that creates an open environment to discuss and implement ideas on an ongoing basis.
