Pardus—Delivering Tailored Insurance Solutions with Speed, Service, and Accelerant’s Support

The Big Picture

In the UK insurance market, small and medium-sized enterprises often seek tailored insurance coverage that meets their unique needs. Pardus, a UK-based underwriting firm founded in 2013, saw an opportunity to modernise specialty insurance—making it faster, more efficient, and better aligned with the evolving demands of brokers and their clients.

The Solution
Pardus specialises in underwriting commercial property and combined insurance products for UK businesses. With a team of seasoned underwriters, they prioritise underwriting profitability and service excellence to deliver innovative, broker-focused solutions.

More Than Underwriting: A Commitment to Service

Pardus is more than an underwriting firm — it’s a partner committed to providing brokers with the tools and support they need to serve their clients effectively. By focusing on underwriting expertise and leveraging technology, Pardus endeavours to ensure that every risk is assessed accurately.

The Pardus Difference

What sets Pardus apart is their commitment to service, speed, and expertise. Rather than competing on price or scale, they focus on delivering exceptional value through swift and accurate responses to broker inquiries. By embedding cloud tools into their underwriting process, Pardus has streamlined risk assessment, improved accuracy, and reduced turnaround times — individually underwriting risks the same day on a result driven approach.

Unlocking Efficiency with New Technology
One of the most impactful tools Pardus has adopted is a geolocation software that enhances risk assessment accuracy. By integrating it into their underwriting platform, Pardus has eliminated manual processes, reduced friction costs, and improved service delivery. This technology, combined with Pardus’ focus on experience and service excellence, has empowered Pardus to operate more efficiently and effectively.

Darren Stockman, Chief Underwriting Officer at Pardus, explained, “This is a service-driven industry. We almost take our product for granted — it’s fit for purpose. But how we perform and how we behave as an organisation is what makes the difference.”

Creating Impact in the UK Market

Pardus’ success is not just measured in premiums written but in the relationships they have built with their brokers. Their ability to respond quickly and accurately, as well as understanding their requirements, has earned them repeat business and a reputation for excellence.

Looking Ahead
With a strong foundation and a clear vision, Pardus Underwriting is poised for continued growth. Their goals include expanding their distribution network, launching new product lines, and reaching £100 million in premiums. Through innovation, collaboration, and a relentless focus on service, they are making rapid progress.
