Wigham Poland Inc. Expands Marine Insurance Division
As part of an effort to enhance Wigham Poland Inc.'s brokerage services, one of the first areas to be expanded is the marine insurance division.
The marine division, 111 John Street, New York, N.Y. 10038, headed by a team of professionals with excellent reputations, will offer a wider range of services by continuing to develop business in the areas of marine insurance and average adjusting.
The marine team, with Mike A'Hearn as Marine Department manager and Bill Nicol as Senior Average Adjuster, will provide a complete and unique feature to Wigham Poland's broking capabilities.
"Wigham Poland's substantial international reputation as a marine insurance broker, augmented by these new staff members, provides the necessary competitive edge in producing and servicing marine accounts," pointed out Richard Hummel, company president.
The Marine Department's growing roster of competent professionals serves to increase the division's strength. This staff will continue to work closely with underwriters to achieve the best product for Wigham Poland's marine clients.
In order to implement growth, the marine team has channeled its efforts in two directions: first, emphasizing production; and second, providing Wigham Poland U.K. with additional marketing capabilities. "Furthermore," stressed Mr. A'Hearn, "we will support our U.K. Marine Department when required to finalize placements of their business in our U.S. markets."
