Aon ASM Relationships Gives Kroll Clients Access to Lloyd’s Kidnap & Ransom Cover

Kroll Inc. is adding kidnap & ransom (K&R) insurance brokered by Asset Security Managers (ASM), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aon Limited, based in Chicago.

Kroll’s new, non-exclusive arrangement with ASM, enables clients of Kroll’s K&R crisis management and other services to benefit from insurance solutions facilitated by ASM and supported by underwriters at Lloyd’s.

With the initiation of the ASM relationship, Kroll has shifted management of its K&R response service to its London offices, where it is headed by Donald Palmer, a recognized negotiator with more than 15 years’ experience in the field.

To further support client service, Kroll has established additional operational centers and response teams in its regional headquarters offices in Buenos Aires, Hong Kong, and New York.

Personal protection services, anti-abduction training and other travel-related risk mitigation services are offered through Kroll offices worldwide and coordinated by Kroll’s Protective Services & Training division, which is based outside Washington, D.C. and noted for its work on behalf of the United Nations and U.S. Department of State.
