Ambris Align

Your Gateway to Specialist London Market Placements for Irish Business.

Acting as your wholesale partner, we utilise our longstanding relationships to provide access to Lloyd’s, top-tier company markets and MGAs, offering tailored solutions for risks that may be challenging, complex, or outside the appetite of local insurers.

Our role is to simplify London Market access—offering fast turnaround, technical expertise, and a fully broker centric approach. You stay in control of the client relationship while we work behind the scenes to deliver competitive, well structured cover.

Whether it’s a difficult Irish property risk, high hazard trade, or excess liability requirement, our experienced team are here to help you win and retain business with confidence.

Thanks to well established relationships with key Underwriters and deep knowledge of London Market appetite and capacity, we ensure fast, efficient turnaround times and competitive terms, bridging the gap between local clients needs and international underwriting expertise.
