The Financial Services Register confirms whether a firm can lawfully carry on insurance distribution.

What Insurance Brokers Do

A broker's role is to represent the policyholder's interests, from market comparison through to claims advocacy. The value in commercial broking lies in market access, wording negotiation and claims handling.

The service is advisory, which brings suitability duties a price-comparison journey does not carry.

How to Choose the Right Insurance Broker

Match the firm to the risk: personal lines, SME packages and specialist commercial risks are distinct disciplines. 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?
The distinction is advice: comparison sites present prices, while a regulated broker evaluates your circumstances, recommends suitable cover and stands behind that recommendation under FCA suitability rules.
Do I need to use an FCA-regulated insurance broker?
Insurance distribution is a regulated activity: authorisation is not optional for the firm. Your check is simple, the FCA register confirms status, permissions and trading names in minutes.
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?
For personal cover: current policy documents, five years of claims history, and details of what you are insuring. For commercial: company details, turnover, existing schedules and claims experience, plus anything unusual about the risk.
Can an insurance broker help me if my claim is rejected?
Supporting contested claims is where broking proves its worth: reviewing the decline, negotiating with the insurer, and advising on Ombudsman referral if the answer stands.
