Contract Certainty (PBQA)
Contract certainty protecting underwriting intent, regulatory compliance and downstream operations.
PoloWorks has been delivering contract certainty services since 2007 across complex Lloyd’s and London Market portfolios, supporting underwriters with independent review and assurance before bind and through post bind quality assurance.
Our specialists work closely with underwriting, operations and compliance teams to identify issues early, ensuring documentation accurately reflects intent and meets regulatory and market standards.
What We Do
We support contract certainty through:
- Pre bind checking to confirm contract certainty and regulatory compliance
- Identification of wording, authority and sanctions issues before attachment
- Post bind sampling and quality assurance to maintain ongoing control
- Independent review with a full audit trail for each check
- Reporting to support underwriting, risk and governance oversight
What makes our Contract Certainty service different
Focused on underwriting intent, not box ticking
Our contract certainty reviews are performed by experienced specialists who understand underwriting decision making, ensuring issues are interpreted correctly rather than escalated mechanically.
Preventative control before bind
By identifying and resolving issues prior to attachment, we reduce downstream remediation, rework and regulatory exposure across the policy lifecycle.
Trusted operational ownership
PoloWorks is relied on to deliver contract certainty at pressure points, during renewals, portfolio growth and peak renewal periods, where quality, turnaround and reliability materially affect underwriting confidence.
