Fleet underwriter Mercurien has agreed a new underwriting partnership with Assetinsure and a promise of investment from its holding company Lombard Australia Holdings (LAH).

Mercurien offers proactive crash prevention via video coaching which is integrated into commercial motor fleet and rideshare insurance solutions in the Australian market.

“With Assetinsure, we’re now able to deliver a compelling insurance and risk management offering to commercial motor fleets and the growing rideshare economy,” Founder and COO Andrew Murrie said.

Mercurien Insurance Director and GM Daniel Johnson says the team aims to deliver solutions that make it effective for brokers to support and deliver a great experience to clients, via its RideProtect and commercial motor insurance solutions.

“We recognised the challenges to doing this in a highly regulated and competitive space,” Mr Johnson said.

Assetinsure EGM of Risk Partners Doug Laburn says Mercurien’s targeted behavioural-management was a “fantastic opportunity”.

“We aim to be at the forefront of investing in innovative, data-led insurance opportunities,” he said.
