Darwin Professional Underwriters, Inc. (Farmington, Conn.), a specialty insurance group, has significantly upgraded its Internet-based platform, (i-bind). The system upgrade enables approved producers to quote, bind and issue competitive miscellaneous professional liability coverage from any computer, 24/7, for more than 200 distinct professions.

Launched in 2005, the first (i-bind) product was management liability (directors and officers, employment practices and fiduciary) coverage for private companies and not-for-profit organizations. Darwin plans to introduce additional products on the (i-bind) platform in the near future and remains committed to partnering with a selective number of agents and brokers.
