The University is tendering for its insurance programme provision. The University procures its insurance products based upon its assessment and balance of risk, taking into account its legal, moral and financial duties.

Since the last tender in 2019 the University have created and developed professional relationships with their insurer providers. This includes with direct insurers on Property, Liability and Motor classes with whom their appointed broker works on a tri-partite basis.
