Advantages for KMRD Clients
Our WBN affiliation extends our capabilities, allowing us to expand support into key local markets and provides KMRD clients a number of advantages:
High-quality service even beyond boundaries. Day or night, our relationships with network partners help us get things done…fast. We are passionate about the needs of our clients as well as long term personal relationships. WBN members meet multiple times each year to build strong relationships and exchange information. This gives KMRD many opportunities to collaborate with other member partners, provide opportunities to connect our partners with our clients in person and to extend our collective capabilities in a rapidly changing global environment. Additionally, the WBN Service Code of Conduct keeps members accountable for providing clients with consistent, high quality service with a sense of urgency.
Global support issues get local support. Our partners are our “boots on the ground” and provide valuable local feedback about regulatory issues, underwriting clarifications or claims and risk control assistance. Resources abound. Challenges like accessing key information in local markets, communicating over multiple time zones and languages, supporting interactions at the local level and ensuring international programs are implemented quickly become easy to solve when the right international collaborators are part of the team.
Remain connected to anywhere around the globe. WBNet provides clients with access to a secure global database where client-specific information can be stored and accessed, as required – at no cost to our clients. WBNet can be a key organizational risk management tool, providing headquarters access to crucial insurance documents, financial summaries and the ability to track local national programs globally.
