Insurance giant WTW moves into crypto asset recovery with Redefind buy
The global insurance broker acquired crypto insurance platform Redefind and launched a digital asset protection service covering asset tracing and legal recovery costs.
WTW, a global insurance broker and risk advisory company, has acquired crypto insurance platform Redefind and launched a digital asset protection service that covers expenses related to forensic investigations, asset tracing and legal recovery efforts following theft or loss.
Redefind is a crypto insurance platform that allows individuals and institutions to purchase coverage for digital assets held across different custody arrangements. The company said its system uses cryptographic proof of ownership to verify insured assets.
The service is designed as a non-custodial insurance product for digital asset owners and will initially launch in the United Kingdom, with broader market expansion planned. The coverage is focused on recovery-related costs rather than traditional custodial insurance products.
