Relationships built
on trust

Alchemy Underwriting was founded in 2023 by seasoned London Market insurance experts Andrew Wallas, Richard Housley and Rupert Cousins. Drawing on decades of underwriting experience and inspired by the transformative power of alchemy, we set out to build an insurance agency that surpasses market expectations — delivering exceptional service and products through enduring relationships built on trust.

In 2025, we expanded into the Nordic region with a specialist Scandinavian team, combining local expertise and strong market relationships to enhance our London Market capabilities.

Backed by A-rated carriers, Alchemy Underwriting is a trusted Lloyd’s Coverholder focused on rigorous risk selection, innovative underwriting, and advanced risk modelling. This enables us to deliver tailored, data-driven solutions that address your specific requirements. With our expansive industry knowledge — now strengthened by our Nordic specialists — we navigate the complex insurance landscape to secure optimal terms for today’s risks while anticipating future opportunities for enhanced protection and value.
