What is an Insurance Broker & How Can We Help You?
When you’re looking for insurance, there is a range of different types of insurance available and many different places that offer insurance. You can receive a policy direct from a large national insurance provider, or you can find cover at smaller insurance providers, which can be companies or individual people. They’re known as insurance brokers.
An insurance broker is a person or company who advises on, sells and negotiates insurance on behalf of a client. They can work with a client to tailor insurance policies to their specific needs, ensuring they’ll receive the most suitable cover for their business or personal life.
What Are The Benefits of an Insurance Broker?
There are many reasons why you might want to go to an insurance broker rather than buying a policy from a larger insurance provider. The first is the personal touch. An insurance broker can work with you to create an insurance policy that is tailored to your exact business or personal requirements in a level of detail that an ‘off the peg’ insurance policy wouldn’t be able to do.
Using an insurance broker for your insurance policy is similar to using a tailor for a new suit. You can always buy one that is ready made and roughly fits, but only by having that personalised element by adjusting where necessary and trimming anything isn’t required can you have something that fits perfectly.
Specialist Brokers are Available
There is a range of insurance brokers that are specialists in their field, having years of experience working with insurance in that specific sector. It means the broker can really understand the nuances of the field, what your business/personal cover requires and how much cover you’ll need. These can include areas such as sports insurance, high-value home insurance, modified cars insurance and commercial combined insurance.
Insurance brokers are also able to offer advice and expertise when it comes to things like existing insurance policies and risk management strategies. Brokers can assess your current insurance to work out if it’s right for you and that it gives you the best possible protection in the areas you need it, whilst also ensuring nothing’s included that you don’t require.
And when it comes to risk management, brokers are also able to assess risks to businesses and can work with you to put risk reduction strategies in place that can be covered by your insurance policy.
Insurance brokers offer the personal touch, as they’re your contact when you need to make a claim or sort out issues with your policy. So even if it’s currently a hard market when it comes to insurance, which generally means less competition when it comes to premiums, using an insurance broker can make the whole insurance process a lot more manageable and a lot less stressful.

Which Insurance Broker Should I Choose?
When it comes to finding the right cover for you, you’ll probably find it at the most suitable insurance broker for your needs. By choosing an insurance broker for your insurance policy rather than using a price comparison site to find a multinational provider, you will have a tailored insurance policy that works effectively for your business or personal circumstances. And by using the personal touch combined with expertise in specific insurance areas, you can be more sure that you’ll find an insurance policy that works better for you.
To choose the right insurance broker for your needs, you should be looking into whether they can find you the appropriate cover, whether they have a track record in delivering similar policies and whether they can provide support when making a claim.
