Land Based Underwriters (LBU)


LBU was formed by a group of insurance professionals to meet the needs of businesses following major changes to legislation for environmental impairment.

The new laws came into effect in 2009 and since that time LBU has been working with insurers to provide environmental liability insurance to brokers for their policy holders.  

LBU is now recognised as the leading supplier of environmental liability insurance cover and provides a unique quote and bind web-based service. LBU has built a reputation of providing brokers with advice and guidance, which can be cascaded to their clients to provide the broker with on hand guidance through the new risks faced. 

Changes in recent legislation means every business is now at risk of prosecution if they cause damage to the environment.
