Shackleton insurance products: liability cover and surety bonds
- Professional liability insurance for professionals in the legal, medical, financial and technical sectors.
- Surety bonds, including curator, executor, liquidation, trustee and tutor bonds, plus Road Accident Fund (RAF) surety bonds.
The RAF surety bonds are provided by Safire Insurance Company Limited, which Shackleton Risk’s site names as the insurer. Shackleton can lodge the bond with the Master on your behalf.
Who Shackleton Risk covers and what to ask for
Shackleton Risk’s products are aimed at professionals and at people appointed to roles such as executor, curator, liquidator, trustee or tutor who need a surety bond. It does not publish its underwriting requirements on its contact page, so send your enquiry to 087 500 0550 or info@srisk.co.za and ask what documents it needs for your bond or policy.
Ownership has changed recently. The founding Shackleton Group says Shackleton Risk was sold to Safire Insurance Company in 2024, so you may see the Safire name on bond documents.
Shackleton Life is a different business
“Shackleton life insurance” is a separate business, not this company. Shackleton Life was a life and disability cover business, sold to Sanlam via Capital Legacy in 2024, and its products are not Shackleton Risk’s. Shackleton Risk handles professional liability insurance and surety bonds, and its contact routes are the head office line 087 500 0550 and info@srisk.co.za.
Complaints and escalation
Shackleton Risk does not publish a separate complaints or escalation line. Start with the office that handles your policy or bond, then write to info@srisk.co.za or call head office on 087 500 0550, and keep a record of your reference numbers.
For other insurers and brokers, browse the insurance and medical aid hub or the insurance directory S listings.
