Frequently Asked Questions
We’re here to help and answer any questions you may have.
Who were the Æsir?
The Æsir were the principal gods in Norse mythology. Led by Odin, who sacrificed his eye in the pursuit of knowledge, they embodied strength, power, and tenacity. They hit hard and they hit fast. In times of trouble, they drew on their community for strength.
Here at Æsir Insurance, we draw inspiration from our namesake in our pursuit of excellent client service, creative solutions, and to create value with respect to claims. We seek to forge lasting alliances with clients and brokers through trust and credibility. We do not look for only short term gains, Æsir is about the power to ensure solutions.
What is Æsir's standard minimum attachment?
Æsir’s standard minimum attachment is $5 million, however we are able to consider lower attachments down to a minimum of $1 million on a case-by-case basis.
Does Æsir cover Chemical Risks?
Æsir has a very limited appetite for chemical risks. We seek out shorter-tail opportunities, claims-made triggers, intermediate products made to specifications, etc. and avoid pesticides, giant chemical conglomerates, and other long-tail and latent risks.
Does Æsir cover Wildfire Liability?
Æsir has appetite to cover wildfire risks, both stand-alone and as part of an overall utility GL placement, but will not insure California risks for wildfire liability.
How does Æsir approach Limits Deployment?
Æsir is interested in placements that are impactful for both policyholders and our portfolio. We employ the same rigorous underwriting process for a short line as we do for our full limit. If risk, terms and premiums are in balance and we believe in the quality of a deal, we are prepared to deploy our full limit even in volatile sectors.
