CHES Special Risk, a Canadian Managing General Agent (MGA), is continuing to expand its nationwide presence.
The company operates in several key cities, including Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver, Edmonton, Québec City, and Montréal – describing it as a national expansion.
Gary Hirst, CEO and president of CHES Special Risk, emphasized the importance of understanding the challenges brokers face in providing appropriate coverage to their clients.
“By offering our expertise and support in major regions of Canada, we can meet the localized needs of clients while drawing on our global insights to create comprehensive and competitive insurance solutions,” said Hirst.
“Whether a broker is new or experienced, we’re here to help them succeed,” added Hirst. “Our team of underwriters is dedicated to providing ongoing support, market research, and superior customer service, enabling brokers to deliver exceptional value to their clients.”
Michael Chaplik, senior underwriter at CHES Special Risk, emphasized the platform’s benefits. “Our new tool is more than just a convenience—it’s a comprehensive solution tailored to meet diverse industry needs,” he said at the time.
“Humans constantly live and work in the presence of infectious pathogens,” said Hirst at the time of the release. “While we often fend off minor infections without long-term effects, pathogens can also cause severe outbreaks. The rise in zoonotic diseases and global travel has significantly increased the likelihood of pandemics, as we’ve seen with COVID-19, Ebola, and SARS-CoV-1.
“Our new IDL policy is essential in providing businesses with the certainty of coverage they need in these challenging times.”
