foreword In 2011, the RISKSA team was proud to unveil the first edition of the UMA Directory – the only publication of its kind in South Africa. We learned a lot of valuable things from such an ambitious project and the result has been a more streamlined and refined UMA Directory 2012. Not every Tom, Dick or Harry with an idea for a specialist underwriting agency is able to make his business fly, but we are encouraged by the continued growth and scope for expansion in the industry. We hear from Tersia Davey, who ruled the roost at the South African Underwriting Managers Association (SAUMA) for the past four years, as well as the new chairman, Rory Gainsford (page 12). Both have given valuable insight into the industry and the role of SAUMA in this dynamic environment. We also take a closer look at the UMA business model with input from Compass Insurance, a specialist short-term insurer operating exclusively through UMAs (page 21). These articles not only show us the industry from the inside, but they also provide tips for entrepreneurs and brokers wanting to establish or work with a UMA. For entrepreneurs aiming to enter the market in the next year or for brokers wanting to specialise in a particular niche, the UMA Directory is an invaluable tool. Finally, we bring you the directory, categorised and alphabetised for convenience. There’s an index to help you find the different categories easily (if colour-coding the alphabet isn’t enough) and we’ve also introduced another index where the UMAs are sorted by name so that you can easily find a particular UMAs details and/or different sections of the industry in which they are active. We hope and trust that this directory will prove to be a useful tool for you in 2012. As always, we welcome your feedback and if somehow we missed you in our efforts to compile this directory, please e-mail uma@comms.co.za to ensure we see you in the next edition in 2013. Andy Mark

THE VOICE OF UMAs Tersia Davey was the chairperson of the South African Underwriting Managers Association (SAUMA) for four years and bowed out at the end of 2011 to make way for Rory Gainsford. We asked Tersia to talk to us about the role of SAUMA and what’s new and what’s on the cards for 2012.

SAUMA now more than ever the voice of the UMA
S
AUMA was established in 1999 with the aim of representing the niche underwriting fraternity in the local insurance industry. Some 13 years later, the association is the voice of the majority of underwriting management agencies (UMA) in South Africa with more than 80 members. Over the past four years, the association has become a force to be reckoned with and is a proactive participant to and powerful voice in the industry. It is now playing an active part in influencing decisions on legislation at the highest level, as well as contributing in other spheres where it represents the interests of South Africa’s UMAs. Close relationships have been forged with other prominent industry bodies such as the South African Insurance Association (SAIA) and the Financial Intermediary Association (FIA). SAUMA is also represented at the Financial Services Board
(FSB). Regular contact with both the FAIS and Short-term Insurance Ombudsman in the last few years means members are kept up to date with the settlement of claims, legislation and regulatory matters. These powerful connections have afforded members the opportunity to be included and heard in all industry-related initiatives. It has also given them the opportunity to improve their products and services as a result of constant feedback. What’s new at SAUMA In September 2011, SAUMA established an associate member forum. The eight new members are Centriq, Compass, Guardrisk, Hollard, Lireas Holdings, Mutual & Federal, RMB Structured Insurance and Santam. The aim of the forum is to establish a close working relationship with insurers in order to address the specific needs of the UMA; to make sure that industry information and important decision-making between the principle and the UMA are shared; to build a
UMA Directory 2012
13
strong network and support structure between the principle and the UMA; and to create a platform where both the principal and the member can voice any industry concerns, queries or recommendations. Prospects for 2012 In 2012, SAUMA will continue to encourage its members to bring their product offering in line with new legislation and regulations of the FSB. It will also proceed to influence new binder regulations and remuneration structures in order to benefit the UMA. The association’s aim is to grow its membership and keep adding value to the industry. It will also strive to build on existing relationships to make them even stronger. The future of UMAs SAUMA is of the opinion that there will be more underwriting managers in South Africa in future. The gap in the market offers prospective UMAs to improve on existing products. New legislation also stipulates that entities must either be an insurer, a broker or a UMA. In the past, small brokers also acted as UMAs. This practice will, however, not be allowed in future. 14
UMA Directory 2012
A word from the new chairman Rory Gainsford is the executive chairman of Hospitality Industrial and Commercial Underwriting Managers (Pty) Ltd and Thatch Risk Acceptances and serves on the boards of a number of other UMAs. His career in the insurance industry spans just over 40 years and now he has taken the reins of SAUMA. “I think that Tersia has done a fantastic job for SAUMA. I certainly do not see any need to change anything dramatically and hope to continue building on the foundation that Tersia and numerous other people have already laid. I hope that SAUMA will be able to continue adding value to its members and will also look for new ways to add further value. I also hope to continue improving SAUMA’s brand and image and for it to become more relevant in the insurance industry. It is my wish that SAUMA develops closer working relationships with SAIA, FIA and the FSB.”

Why do we need UMAs? An underwriting management agency acts on behalf of a registered insurer to underwrite and administer specialised classes of business. These specialised insurance classes include, for example, aviation, liability, engineering, transport and marine. UMAs operate through intermediaries or brokers. The insurance experts at UMAs have the skills and knowledge to provide the correct cover at the right price for specific insurance requirements. They are in constant contact with their target market to learn more about their daily activities and liabilities. These underwriters provide the business environment or industry with specialised insurance knowledge. In turn, the various industries offer valuable insight into their specific risk profiles in order for the UMA to adapt its policy wordings to really meet the needs of their clients. Marine underwriters, for example, must have knowledge of international marine laws and bylaws, the marine world and piracy, especially along the South African coastline. UMAs also form close alliances with industry associations. For example, if it underwrites schools, it would build relationships with school governing bodies and the Department of Education.
So you want to set up a UMA? You’ve identified a niche and you think you can make it work, but what do you do now? If you want to set up a new UMA, here are a few tips from SAUMA: • Compile a business plan: This plan includes a market analysis and product description. • Develop documents: The underwriter must put in place a policy wording, excess structure and underwriting guidelines or a manual. • Apply to the FSB: When the above is in place, the underwriter must apply to the FSB for a Financial Services Provider (FSP) licence in the correct category. • Find a risk carrier: Once the licence is approved, the underwriter needs to find a risk carrier or principal. This will require some homework and investigation. • Negotiate terms: Once an agreement has been reached between the underwriter and insurer, they will jointly negotiate the terms and conditions of their underwriting agreement. For more information on how to become a SAUMA member or how to create a UMA, visit www.sauma.org.

“By concentrating on a specific niche, UMAs were able to understand the needs of their customers in a way that in many cases was simply not possible previously.�

UMA Directory 2012
The need for
T
he underwriting management agency (UMA) model in South Africa has grown substantially over the last two decades. It has reshaped the local insurance industry through the development of innovative new insurance products catering to segments of the market that more generalist insurers tended to avoid. The emergence of this business model was vital for the local industry, said Dean Delport, executive: insurance at Compass Insurance, a specialist short-term insurer operating exclusively through UMAs. The entrance of UMAs in the late 1980s was largely in reaction to falling service levels in the local insurance market. There was a growing need for specialised and niche product offerings that either weren’t being offered or weren’t properly understood by insurance companies. By concentrating on a specific niche, UMAs were able to understand the needs of their customers in a way that in many cases was simply not possible previously. General insurers were often unable to effectively focus on certain insurance sectors, due to a general lack of expertise as well as the complexity of the product required. Today, as you will see in this directory, there are a wealth of UMAs in South Africa catering for a wide range of needs from film and entertainment insurance to guesthouses and goods in transit. By focusing on a key niche product offering, these UMAs are able to provide superior service levels that are highly focused on the specific needs of their target market. Because of this expertise, they are not only able to provide insurance that general insurers would rather avoid, but through correct pricing models can also generate the right risk premiums for the risk involved. It is important to note, however, that a UMA can act only on behalf of its carrier – the
insurer – and is restricted to dealing through a broker network and is not able to deal directly with the consumer. The UMA model is ideal for those brokers who are looking to tap into niche areas, said Delport. UMAs deal with the same kinds of claims every day – whether that is a focus on medical malpractice, game farming or bicycles – so they can provide the broker with expertise in what can be highly complex areas of insurance. The expertise made available to a broker through these channels allows them to advise their clients properly of the risks they face and, through the right policy and premium, can ensure that they have an effective risk management strategy in place. While some entrepreneurs have been very successful in recognising opportunities to form UMAs, there have also been a number of failures, due to an improper understanding of the business model. As such, partnering with the right agency may be a crucial starting point to be able to work in a particular niche. One of the key factors for a broker to keep in mind is the skill set of those working at and running the UMA. “The experience and expertise of the people within the UMA is essential to its success as they must understand the needs of their chosen niche and be able to provide a quality product that can cater uniquely to this target market,” said Delport. It is also vital for a broker to know the sustainability of the UMA. “Firstly, one should be aware of the strength of the carrier that supports the UMA (e.g. its claims paying ability), as well as the reputation of both the UMA and the insurer, particularly with regard to service levels both in underwriting and claims.”

“While some entrepreneurs have been very successful in recognising opportunities to form UMAs, there have also been a number of failures, due to an improper understanding of the business model.”
Keys to success According to Lireas Holdings, a specialist investor in underwriting managers, the key to operating a successful UMA is building sustainable long-term partnerships with the chosen business partners. A number of key factors essential to building these relationships are as follows: • Providing expert underwriting knowledge and skills in a particular class or niche market. • Strong business acumen and strategy – vision, innovation, agility, adaptation and responsiveness. • Understanding of customer and market requirements. • Good balance between entrepreneurial spirit and solid administrative and corporate governance principles. • Identifying the right partners across the entire business chain by reviewing: o Shareholders or equity partners o The risk carrier o Product distribution channels o Technology platform or system providers o Claim administration partners or service providers o Reinsurers o Other administration function providers, such as accounting, legal and compliance. • Prudent underwriting and claims management philosophies. • Superior client service. 22

5. Absa has one of the largest art collections in South Africa consisting of over 20 000 pieces by local artists.
6. Art should always be purchased from a reputable gallery or dealer and evidence should be provided that the piece is indeed the original it is purported to be.
7. Moses Tladi (1903 – 1959) was the first black artist to formally exhibit in South Africa. Two oil paintings and six drawings under the title ‘Special Exhibit by Native Artist’ were exhibited at the Selbourne Hall, Johannesburg, in 1938. His inspiration came from the garden where he worked.
A - 10 facts about art, antiques and collectibles 1. Investigators have in recent years discovered over 30 forgeries of the work of the late South African artist, Frans Claerhout. 2. One of the most expensive antiques ever auctioned was a Pinner Qing Dynasty vase from China, dating back to around 1740. The vessel was sold for an astronomical £53 million in the UK in 2010. 3. The most famous painting in the world, Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa was stolen from the Louvre in 1911 by a workman. The painting was missing for two years before it was recovered. 4. In 1990, two men dressed as policemen stole $300 million worth of paintings from the Boston Museum. 30
UMA Directory 2012
9. The authenticity of a painting can be determined based on stylistic analysis, objective tests of the ageing of the materials and advanced scientific methods such as infrared reflectography. 8. The works of Pablo Picasso and Vincent van Gogh are among the most highly valued paintings in the world today. Picasso became an affluent man, but ironically, Van Gogh sold only one painting during his lifetime.
10. One of the most prolific art forgers of the 20th century was the exceptionally talented Elmyr de Hory. He claimed to have sold over 1 000 forgeries during his 30-year career as an art forger.

Until the introduction of Artinsure Photographer, there has been no comprehensive insurance product for professional and enthusiast photographers or videographers. Many photographers are not aware that most policies are not comprehensive and do not offer full coverage due to the specialist nature of their equipment. In fact an ordinary all risk policy will not cover the normal risks that photographers encounter and could leave them exposed and out of pocket. True to our core value-added offerings, Artinsure Photographer offers expert advice and knowledge of the photography market, specialist repairs and replacement, as well as a tailored offering to meet the unique needs of the market.

Facilitated by product experts, the seminars are hosted at the company’s premises and at various Mutual & Federal offices around the country or at a broker’s office if there are suitable numbers to warrant this.

Helm Underwriting Management Services (SA) (Pty) Ltd (UMS) is a marine underwriting agency which was established in 1991 in 168
UMA Directory 2012
Durban by Hugh Murcell who kicked off his career at Lloyd’s in 1974 and immigrated to SA in 1981. Prior to the formation of UMS he was marine manager at Commercial Union in Durban for almost five years. The inclusion of a Johannesburg branch in June 2000 doubled the premium income of the company, which is estimated to reach over R45 000 000 in the 2011 underwriting year. The success of UMS in past years has developed as a result of the application of sound underwriting principles and the focus on loss prevention rather than throwing higher premiums at loss making accounts. Our eagerness to understand the
Marine liabilities (including charterers) exact nature of clients’ risks and to provide tailor-made solutions to their insurance needs has proven to be a major asset in offering reliable continuity of cover. Access to an
international risk management company provides UMS with information and services not freely available to the local market.

signs the Proudly South African Buy Local Pledge
P
G Group CEO and chairman of the Manufacturing Circle, Stewart Jennings; National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (NUMSA) General Secretary, Jim Erwin; and Proudly South Africa CEO, Leslie Sedibe signed the Proudly South African Buy Local Pledge on 17 November 2011. This initiative is to support the local procurement accord which is designed to help increase the demand for locally produced products and services. As organisations, they undertake to make a conscious effort to buy local as it is a means of building competitiveness of local enterprises and to enhance the capacity to sustain and create employment for the people of South Africa. The Local Procurement Accord is endorsed and supported by government, business, labour and community groups. The objective of the accord is part of the implementation phase of South Africa’s new growth patch,
which aims to create five million new jobs by 2020. Terrance Creamer from Engineering News wrote in his article on its website that “an aspirational buylocal target of 75 per cent was set for both government and business organisations, with a primary ambition being that of bolstering South Africa’s embattled manufacturing sector. Leslie Sedibe said the recently adjusted preferential procurement regulations should provide a catalyst for the buy local thrust, while NUMSA’s Jim Erwin reiterated organised labour’s commitment of procuring locally made goods and services by the union.” Stewart Jennings indicated that the pledge envisaged advancing the country’s overall objective of creating skilled and semi-skilled job opportunities. “Once we started interacting, we quickly realised that many common objectives existed, such as the need for a competitive currency to underpin exports; the need to boost enterprise development; and to better understand
the impact of illegal imports on the South African economy. Many Chinese imports are coming in with unfair incentives from the Chinese Government and taking thousands of jobs in South Africa. Other factors include the high cost of doing business such as municipal fees, port charges, electricity prices and the increasingly onerous terms of trade,” he said. The PG Group stands behind and supports the Buy Local Pledge. PG Glass has signed the pledge and will be rallying the support of all stakeholders in this regard. Join the PG Glass virtual rally on Facebook and become an activist for local producers. Find us on Facebook under ‘Buy Local Pledge’ and upload your company logo, a photograph of yourself or design a placard in support of South African producers of goods and services.

5. Honda and Toyota also had other instances of product recalls in 2007 and 2010, respectively.
6. A number of pet food recalls in 2007 resulted in hundreds of deaths and severe illness abroad and in South Africa. Affected brands included Hill’s, Royal Canin and Nestlé Purina, among others.
7. In the same year, Nokia recalled some 46 million batteries which tests revealed could explode after short circuit. 1. A product recall is a request to return to the maker a batch or an entire production run of a product, usually due to the discovery of safety issues. The recall is an effort to limit liability for corporate negligence (which can cause costly legal penalties) and to improve or avoid damage to publicity. 2. Recalls are costly to a company because they often entail replacing the recalled product or paying for damage caused by use; for this reason product recall insurance can be put in place to cover the costs of recall and claims arising from use of the contaminated or faulty product. 3. Product recall insurance can also cover the cost of media advertising and correspondence to create public awareness of the recall. 200
UMA Directory 2012
8. Product contamination or faulty manufacturing can be as a result of malicious acts or inadvertent error or exposure.

The U•NIQUE product was born out of the recognition that independent brokers seldom have a VIP channel for their high net worth clients and could not guarantee special service from conventional insurers. We have over 200 brokers countrywide who support the product, testimony to the product’s growing appeal and success. The distinguishing feature of this policy is the assets out option. This option replaces the traditional unspecified all risks and allows your client to have open cover for up to R250 000 for jewellery, photographic equipment and personal

affects. Values can also be increased. We offer an automatic survey of the contents, to ensure your client is not underinsured. U•NIQUE Personal for mid net worth – This product is aimed at the upper middle class, ordinary folk throughout South Africa, who are paying between R1 000 and R3 000 per month for insurance. We also conduct pre-loss assessments on every risk, where a detailed inventory and valuation is completed, listing everything in the home and agreed with the client. The valuation summary will give your client a breakdown on premiums allocated to each category in the home, and a choice can be made as to which items to cover. Values and ownership when established up front result in trouble-free claims. The inventory doubles as a policy schedule, removing the need for separate household and all risks sections and the administrative burden and misinterpretation that can result.

Artinsure has pioneered a specialised product for the photographic market – Artinsure Photographer. Until the introduction of Artinsure Photographer, there has been no comprehensive insurance product for professional and enthusiast photographers, as well as videographers. Many photographers are not aware that most policies are not comprehensive and do not offer full coverage due to the specialist nature of their equipment. In fact an ordinary all risk policy will not cover the normal risks that photographers encounter and could leave them exposed and out of pocket. True to our core value-added offerings, Artinsure Photographer offers expert advice and knowledge of the photography market, specialist repairs and replacement, as well as a tailored offering to meet the unique needs of the market.

This pressure can lead to errors and omissions by the professional, which can give rise to claims. This factor together with the litigious nature of our society underscores the need for professional indemnity insurance, both for clients and professionals. Professional indemnity insurance provides indemnity (including costs and expenses) in respect of legal liability arising as a result of practising one’s profession. It covers the insured and their business in the event of damages being awarded due to professional error, omission or act of negligence towards a third party to whom they owe a duty of care. Cover is provided on a claim-made basis, which implies that the cover must be in force when the work is performed and when the claim is lodged. SHA insures a wide range of professionals from accountants, attorneys, insurance intermediaries to personal trainers and tour operators. The PI policy covers: • a negligent act or error made during the course of duties • unintentional infringement of intellectual property rights • loss of entrusted data or documents • liability following employee dishonesty • unintentional breach of confidence • unintentional libel or slander.

The U•NIQUE product was born out of the recognition that independent brokers seldom have a VIP channel for their high net worth clients and could not guarantee special service from conventional insurers. We have over 200 brokers countrywide who support the product, testimony to the product’s growing appeal and success. The distinguishing feature of this policy is the assets out option. This option replaces the traditional unspecified all risks and allows your client to have open cover for up to R250 000 for jewellery, photographic
S equipment and personal affects. Values can also be increased. We offer an automatic survey of the contents, to ensure your client is not underinsured. U•NIQUE Personal for mid net worth – This product is aimed at the upper middle class, ordinary folk throughout South Africa, who are paying between R1 000 and R3 000 per month for insurance. We also conduct pre-loss assessments on every risk, where a detailed inventory and valuation is completed, listing everything in the home and agreed with the client. The valuation summary will give your client a breakdown on premiums allocated to each category in the home, and a choice can be made as to which items to cover. Values and ownership when established up front result in trouble-free claims. The inventory doubles as a policy schedule, removing the need for separate household and all risks sections and the administrative burden and misinterpretation that can result. UMA Directory 2012

T-Z – 10 facts about thatch and thatch risk
1. Thatching can be traced back to at least the Bronze Age in Britain, circa 2000BC. Most houses in ancient Europe, Asia and Africa had thatched roofs. 2. Primitive techniques used dried grass or straw tied into bunches laid on top of each other to make a roof. 3. The South African thatch reed (or Cape reed) has been used for thatching for centuries and is extremely durable and resistant to harsh weather conditions. 4. Modern thatching techniques often include treatment against fire and biological degradation.
256
UMA Directory 2012
7. While thatch is no longer a popular roof covering, it is still quite commonly used for lapas in South Africa – a semi-open entertainment area with a thatch roof supported on wooden poles.
8. A properly compacted thatched roof, constructed at a slope of 45 degrees, has a life expectancy of 60 to 80 years.
9. Thatched roofs in the Gauteng province are at high risk of catching fire from lightning strikes and it is not uncommon to see multiple lightning rods in and around developments where thatched roofs are found.
10. Minimum specifications on thatch roof construction (SABS) are laid down by the South African Thatchers’ Association (TASA) and The Guide to Good Thatching Practice is published by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR).

The client purchases legal defence and accounting cover for a relatively inexpensive premium which enables them to engage top tax professionals to act on their behalf should the need arise. In addition, Tax Radar has entered into various strategic partnerships, which provide specialist tax consulting (TRM/tax risk management services), tax publication (TAXtalk) and a post-graduate tax education university (IITF/International Institute for Tax and Finance).
A tax audit is an experience that most businesses and individuals would like to avoid at all costs. There is no way to ensure that an individual or a business will not experience this. In fact, it would appear that SARS is increasing its number of audits. In the event that a taxpayer is audited, they may face additional assessments or penalties and may find themselves in a position that they have to hire tax experts and professional assistance to liaise with SARS or to defend themselves against SARS. These costs, of course, are incurred whether the taxpayer or their business is proven guilty or not. In addition, new legislation such as the Consumer Protection Act, Tax Administration Bill and the Companies Act furnish the authorities with draconian powers and, at the same time, this places additional responsibility on both the individual as well as the business owner.
