PARTNERING WITH MGAS FOR LONG-TERM GROWTH

At Bridgehaven, our success is built on long-term partnerships with exceptional MGAs, combining entrepreneurial ambition with strict underwriting discipline.

True partnership for MGAs

A model dedicated to you

We’re fully committed to your MGA long term. With no alternative distribution models, you get our, and your reinsurers’ undivided attention.

Full delegation of authority

You’ll have greater latitude to grow your book. We trust our partners and won’t impose extra referral processes – we want you to be able to make fast decisions and seize opportunities as soon as you see them.

Cross over to the brighter side of capacity

With us, you get three to five year capacity commitment, secured through a committed panel of reinsurers. That not only provides stability but also gives you the flexibility to follow your entrepreneurial instincts, unconstrained by traditional short term appetites.

What we look for in an MGA partner

  • Scale: Potential to build a meaningful, sustainable business across the UK & EU.
  • Capability: Proven underwriting expertise, robust operations, and strong governance.
  • Credibility: A track record of profitability, market trust, and consistent performance.

Beyond capacity

We provide more than just balance sheet support. We deliver:

  • Strategic guidance & underwriting insight 
  • Regulatory expertise
  • Access to premier reinsurance networks

Whether you are an established MGA looking to scale or an emerging business with high potential, we offer aligned capital and expert guidance through every stage of the market cycle.

Our claims philosophy

We believe that effective claims handling is fundamental to delivering on our promise to policyholders, MGA partners, and reinsurers. Our approach is built on three core principles: fairness, speed, and transparency.

How we operate

We use a carefully selected outsourced claims model, partnering with specialist Third-Party Administrators (TPAs) and MGAs with proven expertise in their respective territories and lines of business. We oversee the selection, approval, and ongoing performance of all claims providers, while retaining ultimate authority over claim payments and ensuring the right outcomes.

Through robust governance, regular performance monitoring, and clear service standards, we ensure claims are handled consistently, efficiently, and with the customer at the centre of every decision.

Working closely with our MGA and reinsurance partners, we combine specialist claims expertise with advanced analytics and risk modelling to support informed decision-making and effective claims management throughout the programme lifecycle.

The result

A transparent, well-governed claims framework that delivers confidence to reinsurers, supports our MGA partners, and provides policyholders with a responsive and fair claims experience.
