LONDON, UK – 21 February 2021 – Davies, the leading specialist professional services and technology business, serving the insurance and wider highly regulated markets, today announces that it has ranked 28^th in Sunday Times HSBC International Track 200. Despite the challenges of a global pandemic, Davies has delivered accelerated international growth, launched new claims and insurance operations in North America, and delivered significant new business wins in the past 12 months.

Since March 2020, Davies has invested in new ways of working for its people and delivered new technologies to market, supporting its 800+ insurance and highly regulated clients across the globe.

The firm’s automation division worked with a local authority in the UK to launch an intelligent automation solution that instantly processes free school meal applications during the school closures, helping vulnerable children and families access their weekly food bundle quicker.

Globally Davies has more than 4,000 colleagues, with operating centres across the UK, Ireland, Bermuda, the US and Canada. The business delivers professional services and technology solutions across the risk and insurance value chain, including excellence in claims, underwriting, distribution, regulation, customer experience, human capital, digital transformation & change management.

In recent years Davies has increased its annual investment in innovation and digital transformation more than four-fold, including in its CQ claims processing platform, legal AI and automation, its video and drone claims handling solutions, as well as investing in intelligent automation, speech analytics and virtual reality training solutions.

Dan Saulter, Group CEO commented: “I’m delighted that our growing business has ranked in The Sunday Times HSBC International Track 200 for the second consecutive year.
