About Highland Insurance Brokers Ltd

Founded in 2014, Highland Insurance Brokers Ltd has been active for 12 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.

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

What Insurance Brokers Do

An insurance broker acts for the client rather than the insurer, comparing cover across multiple underwriters. The value in commercial broking lies in market access, wording negotiation and claims handling.

Advice is the distinction: an intermediary evaluates the risk presented rather than merely retrieving prices.

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. Ask how claims are supported: advocacy at claim stage is where broking proves its value.

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.
