About Us

GARD is a specialist underwriting agency built around a simple idea: insurance should be clear, responsive and built for the real world.

Underwritten by certain Underwriters at Lloyd's, we deliver tailored insurance solutions for complex risks, combining specialist underwriting expertise with a practical, common sense approach.

Our business is structured around distinct underwriting divisions, each led by underwriters who understand the unique risks and challenges of those industries. That means more relevant cover, more informed conversations, and better outcomes for your clients.

Our Divisions

How we work

We believe strong relationships lead to better results. That's why we prioritise being accessible, consistent, and easy to deal with.

You can expect:

  • clear communication
  • timely, considered decisions
  • a collaborative approach to structuring risks

We take the time to understand each submission properly, rather than forcing it into a one size fits all solution.

Our approach

Our underwriting philosophy is grounded in balance, combining technical discipline with commercial awareness. We're focused on building a sustainable portfolio, not chasing short-term gains, which allows us to remain a reliable partner across changing market conditions.

Why work with us

  • specialist expertise across our chosen sectors
  • responsive service when timing matters
  • consistent underwriting you can rely on
  • genuine partnerships with brokers and capacity providers

As risks continue to evolve, so do we. We're committed to developing solutions that reflect the realities of the industries we support, helping brokers and their clients navigate uncertainty with greater confidence.
