Capsicum Delegated Authority (“Capsicum DA”), the specialist binding authority broker, has today announced the appointment of industry stalwart David Doe to establish a new professional liability specialism.
David is joined by Sue Korth and Jonathan Doel having previously worked together at Lloyd’s broker Tysers.

Together they will offer a full underwriting service, able to bind and manage professional liability underwriting contracts on behalf of Lloyd’s underwriters, as well as provide a full broking service for binding authority placements.
As head of the unit, David brings nearly 40 years of specialist industry experience, having started out in professional liability insurance at the age of 17, with Lloyd’s broker J. H. Minet. Most recently he was a Director at Tysers, responsible for its Special Lines business, which offered a mix of US and International professional liability, Lloyd’s binding authority contracts and open market business. A qualified Chartered Director and fellow of the Institute of Directors, David’s career has also encompassed leadership roles at Bell, Clements & Doe Ltd; and AHJ Special Lines.
