Welcome to Baronsmead

Baronsmead is a leading independent specialist risk consultant and broker providing financial risk insurance, guidance and advice to the investment management industry with its specialism being the alternatives sector.

Fund managers operate in an increasingly litigious world and there is a growing threat of exposure to corporate and personal claims. Baronsmead provides specialist protection from the legal, regulatory, operational and employment risks for investment managers and the funds they manage.

Our strategy is to develop a risk mapping profile that faithfully represents the client’s exposures and risk position. This approach generates a positive insurance submission, ensuring the broadest cover from top-end insurers at competitive pricing. Insurance is a long term business and we aim to attract clients with whom insurers can build an enduring partnership.

The team currently provides advice, insurance products and services to over 70 investment management groups and hundreds of their funds. Our clients range from start-up hedge funds with USD 5m assets under management all the way through to USD 25 bn multi-strategy hedge funds with a total combined AUM in excess of USD 170 bn.

Our excellent levels of client service, product innovation and claims handling has been independently recognised in the highly regarded 2011 HFM Awards, by winning Best Insurance Firm.
