“Take1 will do everything within our power to make sure that our customers never have to take their chances by offering the very best available coverages and our new partnership with OneBeacon enables us to do that with a specialty solutions carrier focused on entertainment customers,” Carroll said today.
Commenting on the partnership, OneBeacon Entertainment president Joe Fitzgerald said, “At OneBeacon, expertise and value-added service sets us apart. That’s why we’re excited to partner with Take1, a premier industry leader in the Entertainment market, and a company as committed to superior service and creative, comprehensive solutions as OneBeacon.”
Take1’s Scott Carroll noted that in the entertainment industry multi-million-dollar decisions are made each day and the insurance requirements are as varied as the productions and people seeking coverage. “OneBeacon Entertainment provides comprehensive commercial insurance solutions for touring entertainers; motion picture, television and documentary film makers, as well as for businesses associated with these industries. They understand that there’s no business like show business, and the companies involved with show business have needs that OneBeacon is uniquely positioned to meet.”
Robert Stockley, entertainment programme development manager at OneBeacon added, “Our partnership with Take1 expands the depth and breadth of our capabilities and dedicated expertise. Together, we can support and build upon an already impressive book and provide customers the specialised solutions they need for the different risks they face.”
