Why use an insurance broker?
It is essential that you have the appropriate insurance coverage in your business as well as your personal life.
The right advice can avoid disastrous mistakes and having an independent expert with a wide knowledge of the insurance market can make all the difference.
They can provide objective advice on identifying risks and exposures and recommending cost effective solutions.
How are insurance brokers paid?
As the broker carries out much of the work for the insurance company including documentation the most common form of payment is a commission to the broker paid by the insurance company.
Is an insurance broker the same as an insurance agent?
There is a difference as an agent acts for the insurance company and is only able to sell their products.
The insurance broker acts on your behalf and is legally required to always act in your best interests and obtain the best protection at a competitive price and is not tied to any insurance company.
