Respecting the New Ways
The founders of Tribe have spent many years in established and highly complex environments, leading and managing insurance and risk. But whilst business and working models have evolved, the insurance on offer to serve them has changed little.
We are the antidote to legacy insurance; to the age-old policy wording and historic, embedded ways of operating. Instead we align to the new and changing risks of today. We work with innovative fast growing business models, offering bespoke, flexible group insurance.
