Authorisation checks are free and immediate on the FCA register; unauthorised distribution is unlawful.

What Insurance Brokers Do

Brokers assess the risk, recommend cover levels and place the policy with a suitable underwriter. Beyond price, a broker's job covers policy wording, exclusion negotiation and support at claim time.

Unlike comparison sites, an advised placement assesses the specific risk rather than matching form answers to quotes.

How to Choose the Right Insurance Broker

Choose by risk class and ask what proportion of the firm's book sits in cover like yours. Before placing cover, understand the firm's role at claim time and its record on disputed claims.

Ask how the firm is paid on your policy; commission and fee disclosure is a regulatory requirement on request.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an insurance broker and a comparison website?

A comparison site retrieves quotes from the answers you type; a broker assesses the risk itself, advises on cover levels and exclusions, and takes responsibility for the recommendation, which matters most on non-standard or commercial risks.

Do I need to use an FCA-regulated insurance broker?

Yes, in the sense that lawful intermediaries are FCA-authorised by definition. Verify on register.fca.org.uk; authorisation also brings Ombudsman and FSCS protections that unauthorised arrangements lack.

How are insurance brokers paid?

Typically by commission from the insurer, a client fee, or both; FCA rules require remuneration to be disclosed, so ask for the breakdown on your specific policy.

What should I bring to a first meeting with an insurance broker?

Bring enough for the firm to understand the risk: existing cover documents, claims history, and for businesses a clear description of activities, premises and turnover; gaps here surface later as disputed claims.

Can an insurance broker help me if my claim is rejected?

A regulated intermediary can act for you after a decline: analysing the policy wording, pressing the insurer, and guiding a Financial Ombudsman Service complaint if needed.
