Dale Underwriting Partners

Dale Underwriting Partners is an independent, owner-managed underwriting business which began trading with effect from 1st January 2014 with the formation of Lloyd's Syndicate 1729. Since then, the business has grown and in 2021 we announced a new joint venture, Dale DUAL MGU Limited and in 2022, we received regulatory approval to establish our own Lloyd's Managing Agency – Dale Managing Agency Limited. In 2023, Dale expects to write Gross Written Premium of £450m of income across its two distribution platforms: Lloyd's Syndicate 1729 with GWP of £330m; and Dale Dual MGU Limited with GWP of £120m. Led by Duncan Dale and a team of experienced underwriters with successful track records, Dale aims to provide a first-class underwriting service to brokers and clients around the world.
