Testimonials

RCA are absolutely first class – proactive, intelligent, and commercial, they “get things done”. They know the W&I market inside out, have the right relationships, and they do not simply accept what insurers offer, but push them hard to ensure our clients obtain the best possible terms. Their advice added real value and we would happily recommend them on future deals. They are real leaders in the field.

I have complete confidence recommending RCA to any of my clients. Their experience, combined with their ability to find solutions to particularly complicated situations, differentiates RCA from other brokers in the transactional risk market – they add real, quantifiable, value to a transaction.

Aaron Fairhurst Partner, CMS Cameron McKenna

It was an absolute pleasure to work with RCA on a recent transaction and we hope to do so again very soon. I was unsure about the insurance process for a complicated transaction in a new jurisdiction but the RCA team provided excellent guidance and helped us secure the coverage we needed. We have worked with RCA successfully on a number of transactions and have come to rely on their prompt, professional service and good advice.
