Unum says it has been able to offer cover across the entire UK following a review of terrorist risk associated with hotspots such as Canary Wharf and the City and an assessment of the actual cost of terrorist attacks such as 9/11.

Paul Davies, marketing and business development director at Unum, says: “We are committed to stimulating market growth through the development of an attractive, relevant and affordable portfolio across the entire range of risk products.”
