A Risk-Focused Approach

Start With the Risk, Not the Policy

Two businesses in the same industry can have very different insurance needs. The same is true for contractors, vessel operators and individual clients.

Harper's approach begins with understanding what needs to be protected, how the client operates and where meaningful exposures may exist before evaluating insurance solutions.

Understand the Client Start with the business, operation, property or personal assets that need protection.
Evaluate the Exposures Identify important property, liability, operational, contractual and specialized risks.
Develop the Program Evaluate insurance solutions and coverage structures around the client's actual needs.
Review as Needs Change Insurance programs should evolve as businesses, assets, operations and personal circumstances change.
