RSA aligns with business travel specialists

Insurer forms strategic alliance with FirstAssist and Drum Cussac

RSA has formed an alliance with medical and security assistance specialists First Assist and Drum Cussac.

The arrangement, which will enhance RSA's group personal accident and business travel insurance, will provide customers with information and support before travelling to minimise exposure to medical and security risks.

Commenting on the alliance, Toni LePine, personal accident manager for RSA, said: "In the current climate of heightened security risks and dangers there is a greater need for support for the business traveller.

"Employers also have a greater duty of care to protect their employees when they travel on business, especially to areas of known risk.

"If the unthinkable happens, our new partnership with FirstAssist and Drum Cussac will mean we are there every step of the way navigating our customers through the uncertainty."
