  • Conduct thorough research and gather necessary information to make informed underwriting decisions.
  • Collaborate with other underwriters and insurance professionals to ensure accurate and consistent underwriting practices.
  • Maintain up-to-date knowledge of industry trends, regulations, and best practices.
