Kaufman established Burns & Wilcox Global Solutions in 2025 to provide a unified offering that includes Chesterfield and Lochain Patrick, along with ability to bring to the marketplace additional bespoke solutions as the company scales its growth. Lochain Patrick is focused exclusively on specialty Marine risks.
Harnessing the very best expertise within Burns & Wilcox Global Solutions enables our organization to provide expansive services across nearly every sector for clients worldwide.
We have grown and evolved over the years, but are still proud to assert that the drive, determination, team spirit and values shown in 1987 at the company’s foundation are maintained by the outstanding people we have in our company today.
We employ the very best people with the highest levels of experience and expertise across all classes of marine and energy insurance, who have first class relationships with worldwide markets, and who have a totally committed “can do” attitude to placing and servicing business, from the first introduction through to the settlement of complex claims
Our company culture and client first approach makes us different to other brokers. We offer unrivalled dedication to our clients, our independence allows us to be agile and free from the distractions of company politics, and we understand the need for specialist service. This sets us apart from the others at a time when consolidation amongst our competitors diminishes choice.
Following our acquisition by H. W. Kaufman Group in August 2014, we are well positioned to support our clients worldwide, with strong financial backing, continued operational independence and a skilled team of insurance professionals.
