Anexo Group plc
('Anexo' or the 'Group')
Major Claims Contract with MCE Insurance
Appointment of Director
Anexo Group plc (AIM: ANX), the specialist integrated credit
hire and legal services provider, is delighted to announce that it
has signed a major agreement with UK-based broker MCE Insurance
('MCE') to offer post-accident claims services to all MCE's
non-fault insurance customers. This follows motor insurer Sabre
Insurance Group plc signing an agreement with MCE which will see it
become the exclusive underwriter of MCE's motorcycle policies.
UK-based MCE is independently owned and since its foundation in
1975 has grown to become one of the UK's largest providers of
motorcycle insurance. Under the terms of the agreement, Anexo will
assume responsibility for dealing with claims from customers of MCE
who are victims of non-fault accidents. Replacement motorcycles
will be provided through Anexo's credit hire division, DAMS, and
customers will be supported in their legal claims against the
at-fault insurer by its legal services division, Bond Turner. Where
appropriate, claims will include personal injury and damage to
possessions and equipment as well as vehicle repair or replacement.
Statistics show that motorcyclists are particularly vulnerable to
personal injury as a result of non-fault accidents.
Anexo expects the agreement to lead to a significant increase in
both the number of vehicles on the road and the number of cases
being handled by Bond Turner. The agreement, which is for an
initial three-year period, is expected to have a materially
positive impact on revenues and to enhance earnings from FY
2022.
Alan Sellers, Executive Chairman of Anexo, said:
"We are delighted to sign this significant agreement with MCE
Insurance. We have a long track record of providing replacement
vehicles and claims support to the motorcycle community and our
motorcycle numbers have been growing, particularly due to the
increasing volume of couriers on the road during the COVID
pandemic. The agreement provides a substantial source of new
business in addition to the introductions we currently receive from
our network of over 1100 introducer garages. It represents a major
contribution to our growth strategy as we work to expand our
business and create value for all our shareholders."
Julian Edwards, Chief Executive Officer of MCE, said:
"Our customer service is our biggest priority at MCE. Partnering
with Anexo gives us access to seamless claims management,
replacement vehicles and legal services for our customers. This
deal means we can focus our efforts on growing the broker business,
knowing we have scalable, first class claims handling service from
a group of leading companies."
