BHSI France Country Manager François-Xavier d’Huart said: “Our experienced environmental team has created a policy that provides expansive coverage in clear, simple policy language, backed by BHSI’s financial strength and excellent service.
“We are pleased to continue to round out our product offerings in France and fill an important market need.”
