About City Business Brokers Limited

Founded in 2005, City Business Brokers Limited has been active for 21 years — a period that spans significant change in the UK financial services landscape, including post-financial crisis regulatory reform, digital transformation and the economic disruption of recent years. The firm's continued active status through this period reflects operational stability.

It is one of 77 energy brokers listed in Derby on this index of 4544 UK firms in the category.

Check whether the broker belongs to a qualifying dispute resolution scheme, a condition of supplier cooperation for microbusiness work.

What Energy Brokers Do

An energy broker obtains quotes from suppliers on a business's behalf, typically under a letter of authority. The regulatory framework is indirect: Ofgem regulates suppliers, and supplier licence conditions now reach the brokers they work with.

The practical value is in the renewal calendar: knowing the notice period and acting inside the window.

How to Choose the Right Energy Broker

The two documents to insist on: written commission disclosure and the terms of the letter of authority. Panel breadth shapes the outcome: ask which suppliers will quote and which will not, and why.

Commission is conventionally uplift-based, which is why written disclosure before signing matters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are energy brokers regulated in the UK?

Energy broking is not FCA-regulated. Oversight comes from Ofgem's rules on suppliers and the dispute-scheme membership those rules require of the brokers suppliers deal with.

How are energy brokers paid?

Usually by supplier commission built into your unit rate, so the cost is inside the price per kWh rather than an invoice. Disclosure rules for microbusiness contracts mean you can and should get the amount in writing.

Can an energy broker save my business money?

In most cases, through a mix of supplier access and renewal-window discipline; missing a notice deadline costs more than most rate differences, and preventing that is much of the service.

What should I have ready when approaching an energy broker?

Bills with meter point numbers, your contract end date, current pricing and usage estimates are the working set; the notice period on your current contract is the critical date.

What is automatic rollover and how do I avoid it?

Rollover happens when a contract end passes without notice served, renewing the supply, often at materially higher rates. Avoid it by diarising the notice window and serving notice in writing inside it.
