Vantage Commodities Financial Services I, LLC won a multi-million dollar arbitration award against Assured Risk Transfer PCC, LLC, or ART. Now Vantage wants the money. Although the arbitration award represents the proceeds of a credit insurance policy that ART sold to Vantage, ART says it cannot pay by itself because it counted on help from reinsurance companies. And the companies that reinsured ART's liability under the insurance policy have refused to help. So Vantage has sued ART and the reinsurance companies. It has also sued Willis Limited, Willis Re Inc., and Willis Towers Watson Management (Vermont), Ltd.-related companies that Vantage says offered ART their services in captive insurance management and as reinsurance brokers and intermediaries. The reinsurance companies and the Willis companies have filed Motions to Dismiss. Because Vantage failed to establish the Court's personal jurisdiction over the reinsurance companies, their Motions to Dismiss will be granted. And because Vantage did not state a contract claim but has stated several negligence claims against the Willis Defendants, their Motion to Dismiss will be granted in part and denied in part.

I. BACKGROUND

This case began with a series of related financial transactions. First, Vantage extended $44 million in credit to an energy company. Compl. ¶ 93. Second, ART insured Vantage against the risk that the energy company would default, up to $22 million. Id. ¶ 17. Third, the Willis companies helped ART reinsure 90% of its liability by brokering reinsurance contracts with several other companies, including the seven reinsurance companies that are defendants here.1 Then the energy company defaulted and went bankrupt. Id. ¶¶ 82, 89.

Vantage submitted proof of loss to ART to collect on its insurance policy, but ART denied the claim based on Vantage's purported failure to comply with a collateralization requirement in that policy. Id. ¶¶ 19, 94. So Vantage presented its claim to an arbitration panel, which determined that Vantage had met its collateralization obligations and that ART owed Vantage $22 million in damages, plus several million in interest and costs. Id. ¶¶ 20-21, 136. The Supreme Court of New York confirmed the award in the amount of $26,288,351.80 *55plus post-judgment interest that continues to accrue. Id. ¶ 22.

Vantage has not received the funds. Id. ¶ 24. ART told Vantage that the only assets it has to pay the judgment are a $2.2 million letter of credit and its reinsurance policies. Id. ¶ 134. And the Reinsurer Defendants have refused to pay ART, claiming that ART and the Willis companies violated the terms of the reinsurance agreements by failing to provide them prompt notice of Vantage's loss. Id. ¶¶ 139-142. The Reinsurer Defendants have also rebuffed Vantage's efforts to collect, claiming that Vantage has no contractual right to demand payment directly from them. Id. ¶ 150.

Vantage has now turned to federal court, filing a Complaint that names ART, the seven Reinsurer Defendants, and the three Willis companies as defendants.2 Vantage asserts breach of contract claims against the Reinsurer Defendants and asks the Court for declaratory judgment establishing their contractual obligations. Id. ¶¶ 152-54, 162. It also asserts breach of contract and negligence claims against the Willis Defendants. Id. ¶¶ 163-187.3 The Reinsurer Defendants have filed two Motions to Dismiss, and the Willis Defendants have filed one.

II. ANALYSIS

A. The Court Cannot Exercise Personal Jurisdiction Over the Reinsurer Defendants

To hear a claim against a defendant, a court must have personal jurisdiction over that defendant. There are three requirements for a court to exercise personal jurisdiction. First, the state's long-arm statute must reach the defendant. GTE New Media Servs. Inc. v. BellSouth Corp. , 199 F.3d 1343, 1347 (D.C. Cir. 2000). Second, the exercise of jurisdiction must comport with the constitutional requirements of due process. Id. Third, service of summons must take place to assert the court's jurisdiction. Omni Capital Int'l, Ltd. v. Rudolf Wolff & Co., Ltd. , 484 U.S. 97, 104, 108 S.Ct. 404, 98 L.Ed.2d 415 (1987). The plaintiff bears the burden of establishing a basis for personal jurisdiction. Crane v. New York Zoological Soc. , 894 F.2d 454, 456 (D.C. Cir. 1990).

1. The District of Columbia's Long-Arm Statute Reaches the Reinsurers

The District of Columbia's long-arm statute authorizes courts to "exercise personal jurisdiction over a person, who acts directly or by an agent, as to a claim for relief arising from the person's ... transacting any business in the District of Columbia." D.C. Code § 13-423(a)(1). It also authorizes jurisdiction over persons defending against claims that arise from "contracting to insure or act as surety for or on any person, property, or risk, contract, obligation, or agreement located, executed, or to be performed within the District of Columbia at the time of contracting, unless the parties otherwise provide in writing." D.C. Code § 13-423(a)(6). Vantage argues that I have jurisdiction over the Reinsurer Defendants under *56both these prongs of the long-arm. Pl.'s Opp. to Reinsurer Defs.' Mots. Dismiss 12-14.

Under the insurance prong of the statute, Vantage correctly observes that the Reinsurer Defendants contracted to insure ART, a legal person located in the District of Columbia at the time of contracting. Id. at 13. The Reinsurer Defendants do not contest this. Instead, they claim they are beyond the reach of the long-arm statute because Vantage cannot assert rights under their contracts with ART and so can make no claim arising from those contracts. Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss by Caisse Centrale De Réassurance, Hannover Ruckverishcerung AG, and Partner Reinsurance Europe PLC (First Reinsurer Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss) 14; Reply ISO First Reinsurer Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 5-6.4 But this argument goes to the merits rather than to jurisdiction. And in any case, the long-arm's "arising from" requirement is satisfied "when the claim has a discernible relationship" to the District-related activity. IMark Mktg. Servs., LLC v. Geoplast S.p.A. , 753 F.Supp.2d 141, 157 (D.D.C. 2010). Here, Vantage's claim against the reinsurers has a clear relationship to the reinsurers' contracts with ART. It therefore arises from the Reinsurer Defendants' contracts to insure a person in the District and falls within the scope of the District's long-arm statute.5

Alternatively, this Court has jurisdiction under the "transacting any business" prong of the statute for the reasons explained in the due process analysis below. See Thompson Hine, LLP v. Taieb , 734 F.3d 1187, 1189 (D.C. Cir. 2013) (holding that the "transacting any business" prong "provide[s] jurisdiction to the full extent allowed by the Due Process Clause").

2. The Exercise of Jurisdiction Comports with Due Process

The Due Process Clause limits a court's jurisdiction to defendants who "have certain minimum contacts with ['the territory of the forum,' which is to say, the geographic area under the court's authority,] such that the maintenance of the suit does not offend traditional notions of fair play and substantial justice." Int'l Shoe Co. v. Washington , 326 U.S. 310, 316, 66 S.Ct. 154, 90 L.Ed. 95 (1945). Depending on the defendant's forum contacts, a court's personal jurisdiction over a defendant may be general, allowing the court to hear any claim against the defendant, or specific, allowing the court to hear claims against the defendant only if those claims arise from the defendant's forum contacts. Goodyear Dunlop Tires Operations, S.A. v. Brown , 564 U.S. 915, 919, 131 S.Ct. 2846, 180 L.Ed.2d 796 (2011).

A district court may exercise general jurisdiction over all claims against a corporate defendant if the corporation's "affiliations with the State are so continuous and systematic as to render [it] essentially at home" in the territory subject to the court's authority.

*57Daimler AG v. Bauman , 571 U.S. 117, 134 S.Ct. 746, 761, 187 L.Ed.2d 624 (2014). Although the Supreme Court has not foreclosed the possibility of an "exceptional case," courts generally consider a corporation at home only in the place of its incorporation and in its principal place of business. See id. & n.19. Vantage concedes that it does not know of any facts that would give me general jurisdiction over the Reinsurer Defendants. Pl.'s Opp. to Reinsurer Defs.' Mots. Dismiss 12 n.5. And by Vantage's own account, the Reinsurer Defendants are incorporated and have their principal places of business in Germany, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and France. Pl.'s Supp. Filing 4-7. So I do not have general personal jurisdiction over the reinsurers.6

A district court that lacks general jurisdiction may still have specific jurisdiction over claims related to acts by which a defendant "purposefully avails itself of the privilege of conducting activities within the forum State, thus invoking the benefits and protections of its laws." Hanson v. Denckla , 357 U.S. 235, 253, 78 S.Ct. 1228, 2 L.Ed.2d 1283 (1958). Purposeful availment does not require that a defendant physically enter the forum state. Burger King Corp. v. Rudzewicz , 471 U.S. 462, 476, 105 S.Ct. 2174, 85 L.Ed.2d 528 (1985).7 It simply "ensures that a defendant will not be haled into a jurisdiction solely as a result of random, fortuitous, or attenuated contacts or of the unilateral activity of another party or a third person." Id. at 475, 105 S.Ct. 2174 (internal citations omitted). For a commercial actor, it is enough that the defendant purposefully directed its efforts toward residents of the forum state or created continuing obligations to forum residents. Id. By tying jurisdiction to actions by the defendant that create a "substantial connection" with the forum state, the law ensures the foreseeability of a court's exercise of jurisdiction. Id. at 474-75, 105 S.Ct. 2174.

The Reinsurer Defendants are commercial actors who purposefully directed their activities at ART, a resident of the District of Columbia. See Compl. Ex. 4.8 They did so by entering reinsurance contracts that created continuing obligations to ART. See id. ¶ 52, 65-66. It appears that ART was domiciled in the District of Columbia when the Reinsurer Defendants contracted with it, when it paid premiums to the Reinsurer Defendants, and when it *58experienced the risk that the reinsurance plans covered. See id. Ex. 4 (establishing the District of Columbia as ART's place of domicile); see also Compl. ¶ 122 (referencing premiums paid by ART to reinsurers). This establishes a substantial connection between the Reinsurer Defendants and the District of Columbia that does not result from random or fortuitous occurrences and that makes it reasonably foreseeable that a lawsuit related to the contracts would be brought in the District. See Burger King , 471 U.S. at 474-75, 105 S.Ct. 2174 ; McGee v. Int'l Life Ins. Co. , 355 U.S. 220, 223, 78 S.Ct. 199, 2 L.Ed.2d 223 (1957).

To be sure, as the Reinsurer Defendants point out, "merely entering into a contract with an out-of-state party does not constitute the kind of purposeful availment that subjects a defendant to the laws of the other party's home state." Katopothis v. Windsor-Mount Joy Mut. Ins. Co. , 211 F.Supp.3d 1, 22 (D.D.C. 2016). But "under some circumstances the terms of a contract may well create such a substantial connection between the non-resident and the forum that the contract alone could supply the necessary minimum contacts." Thompson Hine , 734 F.3d at 1193. And a single insurance contract provides sufficient basis for personal jurisdiction when, as here, the insurance company purposefully enters a contract with, receives payments from, and insures a risk experienced by a forum resident. McGee , 355 U.S. at 223, 78 S.Ct. 199 (emphasizing the forum state's "manifest interest in providing effective means of redress for its residents when their insurers refuse to pay claims"); see also Travelers Health Assoc. v. Va. State Corp. Comm'n , 339 U.S. 643, 647, 70 S.Ct. 927, 94 L.Ed. 1154 (1950) ("[A] state has a legitimate interest in all insurance policies protecting its residents against risks, an interest which the state can protect even though the state action may have repercussions beyond state lines."); id. at 648, 70 S.Ct. 927 (noting the "great weight" accorded to a state's interest in enforcing its residents' insurance contracts). The reinsurance contracts fall under this rule because reinsurance is simply "insurance for insurance companies." See Validus Reinsurance, Ltd. v. United States , 19 F.Supp.3d 225, 227 (D.D.C. 2014). Thus, I have specific jurisdiction over Vantage's claims against the Reinsurer Defendants.

3. Vantage Has Not Asserted the Court's Jurisdiction Through Proper Service

"Before a federal court may exercise personal jurisdiction over a defendant, the procedural requirement of service of summons must be satisfied." Omni Capital Int'l, Ltd. v. Rudolf Wolff & Co., Ltd. , 484 U.S. 97, 104, 108 S.Ct. 404, 98 L.Ed.2d 415 (1987). Vantage tried to serve the Reinsurer Defendants through their law firm, Mendes & Mount, which it argues was their authorized agent for service of process under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 4(h)(1)(B). Pl.'s Opp. to Reinsurer Defs.' Mots. Dismiss 21-22.9 This view finds some support in the reinsurance contracts, which authorize service on Mendes & Mount. Compl. Ex. 7 Art. XXVI; id. Ex. 8 Art. XXVI.10

*59But the Reinsurer Defendants deny that Mendes & Mount is their authorized agent for service of process. First Reinsurer Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 15-17; Second Reinsurer Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 12-13. They claim that the service provision in the reinsurance contracts authorizes service only if ART sues the reinsurers to compel arbitration or to enforce an arbitral award. First Reinsurer Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 17; Second Reinsurer Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 13. And they are right that the contracts' service provision is not a general authorization of Mendes & Mount to receive service of process in all cases.11 The clearest limitation on the service of suit provision is that it "shall not be read to conflict with or override the obligations of the parties to arbitrate their disputes" under the contracts' arbitration clause. Compl. Ex. 7 Art. XXVI; id. Ex. 8 Art. XXVI.

Thus, Vantage can only serve the Reinsurer Defendants through Mendes & Mount if it is entitled to rely on the service clause and can maintain its lawsuit without violating the arbitration clause of the reinsurance contracts.12 The Reinsurer Defendants argue that any legal theory allowing Vantage to invoke the benefits of the reinsurance contracts would also require it to submit its claims to arbitration. First Reinsurer Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 21-24; Second Reinsurer Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 17-18. Vantage responds that it is not seeking the benefit of the reinsurance contracts but is instead seeking to enforce "a direct contractual relationship with the Reinsurers that is separate and apart from the Reinsurance Agreements." Pl.'s Opp. to Reinsurer Defs.' Mots. Dismiss 28.

But Vantage cannot show that it has a direct contractual relationship with the Reinsurer Defendants. Vantage's argument depends almost completely on a single, unreported, out-of-circuit district court opinion that is distinguishable. Pl.'s Opp. to Reinsurer Defs.' Mots. Dismiss 23-27.13 In it, the Southern District of New York used a two-part test to determine that a reinsurer was directly liable to an insured. See *60World Omni Fin. Corp. v. Ace Capital Re, Inc. , 2002 WL 31016669 at *2 (S.D.N.Y. Sept. 10, 2002). First, it asked "whether the reinsurance agent was the ultimate, consistent reimburser of losses of the insured." Id. Second, it asked "whether this status was conveyed to the insured." Id.

While this test may seem favorable to Vantage, the insured in World Omni had a clear understanding that the direct insurance company "was not intended to retain any risk" and that the reinsurance company was the only reimburser of losses. Id. at *1-2. The reinsurer actually negotiated the basic terms of the insurance contract with the insured before the direct insurance company was even created. Id. at *1. Then it had the insured's parent company create the direct insurance company, which "[was] minimally capitalized, [had] never been an independent operating insurance company, and [had] never had the ability to engage in independent underwriting or claims-handling activities." Id. The reinsurance company assumed 100% of the insurer's liability and consistently dealt with the insured directly as if it were a direct insurer. Id.

Vantage has not alleged facts showing that this is a similar case. It points to allegations in the Complaint that ART was created to access the reinsurance market, that ART retained 10% of the risk it insured for Vantage, that ART had to identify its reinsurers to get Vantage to buy the insurance policy, that ART made it possible for the reinsurers to make money off the direct insurance policy that ART sold Vantage, and that the reinsurers relied on information about Vantage that they received from the Willis Defendants. Pl.'s Opp. to Reinsurer Defs.' Mots. Dismiss 24, 26. It also notes its allegation that, during arbitration, a witness testified that payment of any arbitration award would be between the reinsurers and Vantage. Id. at 25. And it makes a few new claims that are not supported by citations to the Complaint or to record evidence. Id. at 25-26. But the allegations in the Complaint do not overcome the general rule that a reinsurer does not have a direct contractual relationship with the original insured unless the terms of the reinsurance agreement create such a relationship. See Bruckner-Mitchell v. Sun Indem. Co. of New York , 82 F.2d 434, 444 (D.C. Cir. 1936). In fact, some allegations simply describe how reinsurance works. Unlike in World Omni , there are no allegations that show the Reinsurer Defendants were the true parties dealing with Vantage and that the direct insurer was simply created as a straw at their behest.

Because Vantage cannot show a direct contractual relationship with the Reinsurer Defendants, its effort to evade the reinsurance contracts' arbitration clause fails. Because it cannot evade the arbitration clause, which limits the contracts' service of process clause, it cannot serve the Reinsurer Defendants through Mendes & Mount. And because it cannot serve the Reinsurer Defendants through Mendes & Mount, it has not validly asserted the Court's personal jurisdiction over them. See Omni Capital , 484 U.S. at 104, 108 S.Ct. 404.

Vantage has asked that, if I determine that service on Mendes & Mount was ineffective, I exercise my discretion to grant it an extension of time to accomplish service in the interest of justice. Pl.'s Opp. to Reinsurer Defs.' Mots. Dismiss 22-23. But Vantage itself has recognized that "[t]he question of service is inextricably intertwined with the merits." Id. at 22. Service on Mendes & Mount was ineffective because Vantage seeks to assert rights under a direct contract with the reinsurers that does not exist. This determination goes both to jurisdiction and to the merits, *61making an extension of time to accomplish service futile. Because Vantage has failed to carry its burden of establishing personal jurisdiction, I will immediately grant the Reinsurer Defendants' Motions to Dismiss. See Crane , 894 F.2d at 456.

B. Vantage Has Only Stated Negligence Claims Against the Willis Defendants

To survive a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim under Rule 12(b)(6), a complaint must contain sufficient factual allegations that, if true, "state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face." Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly , 550 U.S. 544, 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007). Plausibility requires that a complaint raise "more than a sheer possibility that a defendant has acted unlawfully." Ashcroft v. Iqbal , 556 U.S. 662, 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009). Pleading facts that are "merely consistent with" a defendant's liability "stops short of the line between possibility and plausibility." Twombly , 550 U.S. at 545-46, 127 S.Ct. 1955.

Thus, a court evaluating a motion to dismiss for failure to state a claim does not accept the truth of legal conclusions or "[t]hreadbare recitals of the elements of a cause of action, supported by mere conclusory statements." Iqbal , 556 U.S. at 678, 129 S.Ct. 1937. That said, it construes the complaint in the light most favorable to the plaintiff and accepts as true all reasonable inferences drawn from well-pled factual allegations. See In re United Mine Workers of Am. Emp. Benefit Plans Litig. , 854 F.Supp. 914, 915 (D.D.C. 1994). Consideration is limited to "the facts alleged in the complaint, any documents either attached to or incorporated in the complaint and matters of which [the court] may take judicial notice." Hurd v. D.C. Gov't , 864 F.3d 671, 678 (D.C. Cir. 2017). The moving party bears the burden of showing the complaint's insufficiency. Cohen v. Bd. of Trs. of the Dist. of Columbia , 819 F.3d 476, 481 (D.C. Cir. 2016).

Before evaluating the parties' claim-specific disputes, I note two preliminary matters. First, the parties dispute whether the law of the District of Columbia or the law of the United Kingdom applies to Willis Limited. Willis Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 8 n.3, 10 n.4; Pl.'s Opp. to Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 12 n.7, 16 n.9. As they identify no material difference and focus mainly on the District of Columbia's law, I apply that law.

Second, the Willis Defendants argue that Vantage's Complaint is defective because it asserts its claims against the Willis Defendants collectively without distinguishing among them. Willis Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 17. But the cases on which the Willis Defendants rely to show that collective pleading is inadequate dealt with collective allegations against unrelated defendants. See Toumazou v. Turkish Republic of N. Cyprus , 71 F.Supp.3d 7, 21 (D.D.C. 2014) ; Bender v. N. Am. Telecomm., Inc. , 750 F.Supp.2d 1, 6-7 (D.D.C. 2010). The reason courts dismiss claims in situations like this is that "a plaintiff must provide each defendant with fair notice of each claim and its basis." Toumazou , 71 F.Supp.3d at 21. And the Willis Defendants have cited no authority showing that this concern applies when the defendants are part of a single enterprise that happens to be organized into distinct but related corporations as appears to be the case here. Because the Willis Defendants have not shown that the Complaint gives them inadequate notice of Vantage's claims against them, I now consider each claim in turn.

1. Vantage Has Failed to State a Claim for Breach of Contract

To state a claim for breach of contract, a plaintiff must allege facts showing *62that a contract between the parties exists. Francis v. Rehman , 110 A.3d 615, 620 (D.C. 2015).14 According to Vantage, "[t]he Complaint alleges that an agency agreement was formed when Willis collectively undertook to serve as the captive manager for ART PCC, and as the reinsurance intermediary, and particularly when it agreed to convey information at Vantage's request to the Reinsurer Defendants." Pl.'s Opp. to Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 13. But none of the paragraphs in the Complaint that Vantage cites show that the Willis Defendants undertook a contractual obligation to Vantage that they would transmit information to the reinsurers at Vantage's request. See Compl. ¶¶ 73-80, 174. And any agency agreement that the Willis Defendants entered when they undertook to act as ART's captive manager and to act as an intermediary between ART and its reinsurers was an agreement between the Willis Defendants and ART-not an agreement between the Willis Defendants and Vantage.

But Vantage argues that the District of Columbia's contract law allows a plaintiff to "bring an action against an insurance company's agent or intermediary for failure to obtain requested insurance." Pl.'s Opp. to Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 12-13. This argument fails for two reasons. First, Vantage has not sought to bring an action against the Willis Defendants for failure to obtain requested insurance. The only breach of contract that Vantage alleges against the Willis Defendants is failure "to provide timely and sufficient information regarding Vantage's loss" to the reinsurers. Compl. ¶ 174.

Second, Vantage has not shown that its relationship with the Willis Defendants is analogous to the relationship between the plaintiff and the insurance broker in the cases on which it relies. In Zitelman and Adkins , the plaintiffs formed contract relationships with their insurance brokers by calling the brokers directly and obtaining assurances from the brokers that they would arrange for them to be insured. Zitelman v. Metro. Ins. Agency , 482 A.2d 426, 427 (D.C. 1984) ; Adkins & Ainley, Inc. v. Busada , 270 A.2d 135, 136-37 (D.C. 1970).15 These cases establish that a plaintiff may sue an insurance broker who has directly contracted with the plaintiff to act as the plaintiff's agent.16 They do not establish *63that a plaintiff may sue an insurance broker who has contracted with the plaintiff's insurer to act as the insurer's agent. For both these reasons, Vantage has failed to state a contract claim.

2. The Willis Defendants Have Not Adequately Challenged Vantage's Negligence, Professional Negligence, and Negligent Undertaking Claims

The Willis Defendants construe Vantage's negligence, professional negligence, and negligent undertaking claims as "virtually identical." Willis Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 10; see also id. at 11 (citing the elements of negligence to prove the elements of negligent undertaking).17 The only element of these claims that the Willis Defendants challenge in their Motion to Dismiss is the existence of a duty that they owed to Vantage. See Willis Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 10-15.18 But they do not offer any clear standard for determining when a duty exists or satisfy their burden of showing the Complaint's inadequacy.

The Willis Defendants raise separate arguments to show that none of the three Willis entities owed a duty. First , the Willis Defendants argue that Willis Captive Management's role in managing administrative tasks for ART did not create any duties toward Vantage. Id. at 11-12.19 In support of this argument, they claim that Vantage's Complaint does not allege that Willis Captive Management had any contact with Vantage or undertook to provide any services to Vantage. Id. 11.20 But the Complaint alleges that Aiden Kelly, a Willis Captive Management employee, signed credit insurance binders provided to Vantage to confirm that ART's insurance policy was backed by reinsurance ceded on the same terms as the original insurance policy. Compl. ¶¶ 43-45, 47-48, 51; see also Reply ISO Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 8.

*64The Willis Defendants argue that they had no legal connection to Mr. Kelly's action because he signed the binders as ART's authorized representative. Id. at 6, 8. But Mr. Kelly appears to have been acting as ART's representative because he was an employee of ART's captive manager, Willis Captive Management. The Willis Defendants cite no facts or legal authority to show that Mr. Kelly's role as ART's representative and his role as a Willis Captive Management employee are mutually exclusive, so that his acts on ART's behalf cannot also be attributed to Willis Captive Management.21 Contrary to the Willis Defendants' argument, Vantage has alleged facts that at least support a reasonable inference of contact with Willis Captive Management.

Second , the Willis Defendants argue that Willis Limited's role as ART's reinsurance intermediary did not establish any duties toward Vantage. Willis Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 12-15. As with Willis Captive Management, they claim that Vantage's Complaint does not allege that Willis Limited had any contact with Vantage or undertook to provide any services to Vantage.22 But the Complaint alleges that Willis Limited undertook to transmit "all communications and payments" related to the reinsurance contracts, knowing that the reinsurance was intended to provide for Vantage's compensation in the event of a covered loss, knowing that Vantage considered the reinsurance essential, and intending for Vantage to rely on the representations in the credit insurance binders. Compl. ¶¶ 43, 53-54, 73-75, 78-80. The Complaint also supports the inference that ART had an obligation to Vantage to find reinsurance and that Willis Limited undertook to help ART discharge this obligation. See id. ¶¶ 39, 42-43. The Willis Defendants note that these undertakings were contractual obligations to ART but do not explain why they cannot also be tort obligations to Vantage. Willis Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 12-15.

Vantage has made at least a preliminary showing that Willis Limited's contractual undertakings created tort duties owed to Vantage. Pl.'s Opp. to Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 16-18. Under District law, a person who undertakes to render services to one party "which he should recognize as necessary for the protection of a third person or his things" has a duty of reasonable care to the third party. See, e.g., Presley v. Commercial Moving & Rigging, Inc. , 25 A.3d 873, 889 (D.C. 2011) (quoting Restatement (Second) of Torts § 324A ). Such a person can be liable to a third party if his failure to exercise reasonable *65care increases the risk of harm or if he has undertaken to perform a duty that the person he is serving owed to the third party. Id.23 The cases that the Willis Defendants cite to the contrary are inapposite. See Cambridge Holdings Grp., Inc. v. Fed. Ins. Co. , 489 F.3d 1356, 1358-59 (D.C. Cir. 2007) (addressing contract claims rather than tort claims); Car Sense, Inc. v. Am. Special Risk, LLC , 56 F.Supp.3d 686 (E.D. Pa. 2014) (recognizing that a reinsurance intermediary can owe tort duties to third parties but denying negligent misrepresentation claim by a plaintiff who was not a party to the insurance or reinsurance contracts and who did not rely on the intermediary's representations).

Third , the Willis Defendants assert that the Complaint contains no allegations against Willis Re Inc. But the Complaint makes the same allegations about Willis Re Inc.'s role as a reinsurance intermediary that it makes about Willis Limited. Compl. ¶¶ 39, 42-43, 53-54, 73-75, 78-80.24 So this challenge to the adequacy of the Complaint also fails. Mindful that all reasonable inferences must be drawn in favor of the Plaintiff at this stage, In re United Mine Workers , 854 F.Supp. at 915, I find that none of the Willis Defendants' arguments show that Vantage has not alleged facts establishing that they owed it a duty that is actionable in negligence, professional negligence, or negligent undertaking.

3. The Willis Defendants Have Not Adequately Challenged Vantage's Negligent Misrepresentation Claim

The Willis Defendants challenge Vantage's negligent misrepresentation claim on two grounds. First, they argue that the Complaint does not satisfy the heightened pleading requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 9(b), which requires a statement of the "time, place and content of the false misrepresentations, the fact misrepresented and what was retained or given up as a consequence of the fraud, as well as the individuals involved." Willis Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss at 16; see also Lemon v. Kramer , 270 F.Supp.3d 125, 144 (D.D.C. 2017). Second, they argue that the Complaint does not allege facts showing that Vantage reasonably relied on any misrepresentations that they made. Willis Defs.' Memo. ISO Mot. Dismiss 15-16; see also In re United States Office Prods. Co. Secs. Litig. , 251 F.Supp.2d 58, 74 (D.D.C. 2003).

But the Complaint satisfies these requirements for several alleged misrepresentations. Most important, the Complaint alleges that Willis Captive Management employee Aiden Kelly signed credit insurance binders on December 28, 2012 and August 19, 2013, representing to Vantage that the reinsurance policies ceded ART's liability "on the same terms, conditions, and settlements as the original *66policy." Compl. ¶¶ 47, 51, 183. It also alleges that this representation is false because the reinsurance policies limited the reinsurers' obligations to ART and required arbitration. Id. ¶¶ 69-70. Relatedly, the Complaint alleges that the Willis Defendants failed to disclose to Vantage that the reinsurance agreements contained terms that conflicted with the representations in the credit insurance binders, so that a loss covered under the insurance policy might not be recoverable by Vantage from the reinsurers. Id. ¶¶ 69, 165, 170, 179, 183.25 The Complaint alleges that Vantage would have tried to insure its risk in other ways except that it reasonably relied on these affirmative misrepresentations and misrepresentations by omission, as the Willis Defendants intended it to do. Id. ¶¶ 54, 186.

These allegations are inadequate in three ways, according to the Willis Defendants. First , they claim that the statements in the credit insurance binders are not attributable to Willis Captive Management because Mr. Kelly signed them as ART's representative and that the statements have even less connection to the other Willis Defendants. Reply ISO Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 15-16. But I have already rejected the argument that Willis Captive Management bears no responsibility for the insurance binders, and the Complaint alleges that all the Willis Defendants misled Vantage by intentionally allowing it to rely on the binders and failing to provide Vantage material information. Compl. ¶¶ 54, 69, 165, 170, 179, 183.

Second , the Willis Defendants claim that the Complaint fails to specify who at Vantage received, reviewed, and relied on the binders. Reply ISO Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 16-17. But the precedent on which they rely does not contain such a requirement. See In re Office Prods. , 251 F.Supp.2d at 74 (requiring that a complaint allege facts showing that "the plaintiffs reasonably and to their detriment relied on the false information"). The Complaint adequately alleges that the Plaintiff, a legal person, relied on the binders. Compl. ¶ 55.

Third , the Willis Defendants claim that the Complaint fails to allege facts showing that the representations in the credit insurance binders were false. Reply ISO Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 17. But as I have already observed, the Complaint alleges that the binders falsely claimed that the reinsurance policies ceded ART's liability on the same terms as the original policy when in fact the reinsurance policies limited the reinsurers' obligations to ART and required arbitration. Compl. ¶¶ 47, 51, 69-70, 183. So I must reject this challenge to the adequacy of Vantage's allegations about the insurance binders and about the Willis Defendants' misrepresentations, as I have rejected the others.

The Willis Defendants unpersuasively challenge the adequacy of Vantage's allegation that they negligently failed to disclose that they would not convey information about Vantage's loss to the reinsurers. The Willis Defendants argue that Vantage failed to identify who made the misrepresentation to whom and at what time. Reply ISO Willis Defs.' Mot. Dismiss 17 n.4. But the Complaint alleges that when the reinsurance contracts promised that the Willis Defendants would convey "all communications and payments" related to the contracts. Compl. ¶¶ 74. And the Complaint alleges facts supporting an inference that this statement was false at least by the time that Vantage experienced the insured *67loss. Id. ¶¶ 139, 146 (noting that the reinsurers denied coverage because Willis failed to provide information them information about Vantage's loss and that the Reinsurer Defendants said Willis had not been able to confirm that it provided any communications). From that time forward, the Willis Defendants' failure to correct the statement arguably constituted an ongoing misrepresentation to Vantage.26

III. CONCLUSION

For the reasons stated above, the Reinsurer Defendants' Motions to Dismiss will be granted and the Willis Defendants' Motion to Dismiss will be granted as to Vantage's contract claims but denied as to Vantage's negligence claims. A separate order will issue.
