EMB UK
In 1993, English Wright & Brockman launched its specialist non-life actuarial consultancy services. In 1997, English Matthews Brockman was formed by the merger with Matthews Consultants, a specialist reinsurance consultancy. Now known as EMB Consultancy LLP (EMB), we have expertise in all areas of non-life insurance, in particular, dynamic financial analysis, pricing, reserving, and reinsurance.
EMB is now the UK's largest non-life independent actuarial and business consultancy offering expertise in all areas of non-life insurance, with offices in Epsom (UK), London (UK), Cambridge (UK), Germany, France, North America, India, Korea, South Africa and Australia.
In 2001, EMB won The Review Magazine Service Provider of the Year Award - the panel said "EMB have an outstanding record of service to the reinsurance industry". In 2003, EMB won the Queen's Award for Innovation, one of the most prestigious commendations open to any business in the UK. The citations highlighted EMB's "development and continuous improvement of software".
In just over ten years EMB has become the dominant actuarial consultancy in personal lines, especially in the motor market. In the international market, it has achieved a significant presence at Lloyd's of London and a growing client base among commercial insurers and reinsurers, many of them based overseas. It is also a leader in the large and growing run-off business.
We have built a strong brand from a zero start based on one to one client care from partners and consultants. We are proud of our highly innovative and effective approach to servicing clients.
We understand what clients want from a consultant
- The highest technical standards
- Independence and integrity
- An understanding of your business sector
- A mindset that treats each client as an individual
- An ability to think creatively
Knowledge transfer is at the core of our philosophy. Instead of trying to protect our expertise, we actively help clients to acquire their own actuarial and business skills, believing this to be in the interests of productive long term working relationships.
Our range of software is unrivalled, making it feasible to perform tasks that would otherwise be impossible, impractical or hugely time-consuming.
Most importantly, we do not just deliver numbers, we create understanding. Clients require more than just data; they want to know how it can be applied realistically to their businesses to make them more competitive, more secure and more capital efficient.
In the past decade whole new areas of previously unheard of actuarial techniques have become centre stage, driven partly by new regulatory requirements. EMB has sought to help clients benefit from these new opportunities.
We are the leading provider of financial modelling to the world's insurers and reinsurers. We see it as a way to understand the dynamics of a business so that our clients can then make better informed decisions that ultimately maximise the efficient use of capital.
We appreciate that actuaries are just part of a much bigger jigsaw. We offer management consultancy for clients who seek advice on how to apply our core actuarial skills to their wider business needs.
Most insurers want to develop the skills of their staff. We offer training courses on how to use our software fluently, through to a wide range of actuarial and business issues.
We encourage diversity. We work closely with our overseas offices, who bring new ideas and perspectives to what we do in the UK, enriching our skills and providing valuable local knowledge for our clients.
