McLarens Announces Expansion into Latin America, Creating an Exclusive Affiliation with Prevencion and Control S.A.C. (PyC) in Peru

Norcross, GA – USA (August 13, 2019) McLarens, a leading, global independent insurance services provider, today announced an exclusive affiliation with Prevencion and Control S.A.C. (PyC), a loss adjusting and insurance services firm based in Lima, Peru. This new affiliation provides McLarens with a well-respected and established partner in the northern region of South America to provide claims management services on all types of losses. Established in 2009, PyC has grown rapidly, and is now one of the largest independent adjusting firms in the country, currently working with all of the major local insurance companies and brokers, and some reinsurance companies.

The firm’s growth has been a result of its quality-driven solutions delivered through its experienced personnel, proven infrastructure, and commitment to technology. Today, PyC is one of the most technologically advanced loss adjusting firms in Peru, utilizing satellite communication with damage survey teams in remote areas and drone units/pilots that enable real-time or near real-time flow of information to clients. The PyC team is comprised of loss adjusting experts in a range of various disciplines, including energy (oil and gas), power, mining, property, casualty, construction, general liability, environmental, cargo and P&I club legal services. In addition to its extensive and bi-lingual in-house adjusting team, PyC’s staff also includes additional resources, which can be leveraged for additional expertise, such as lawyers, accountants, private investigators, qualified inspectors, geologists, surveyors, and engineers (mechanical, civil, electrical and hydraulic).

“McLarens’ growth agenda continues to gain momentum, and this new exclusive affiliation in Latin America represents another strategic step. Our partnership with PyC provides expansion into the market and will allow us to serve our growing client base with in-country experts who meet our stringent affiliate partnership criteria,” commented Gary Brown, McLarens Chief Executive Officer.

Howard Laidlaw, McLarens Regional Director – Latin America, said, “As we see the Latin American market growing and changing, our exclusive affiliation with PyC offers our team a trusted resource in serving our clients in the region.

Adding the PyC team to our international network, will allow us to deepen our presence in Latin America by offering our clients claims handling solutions, with an additional level of local expertise across a range of disciplines.”
