Insurance Brokers

Until recently the insurance industry in general has remained largely insular and could be accused quite legitimately of being reactive to client needs rather than leading the way.

A response is recognised as by Commercial Insurance Broker Bradshaw Bennett.who offer alternative approaches to risk management and insurance broking. Whist they are specialist insurance broker to the food industry and affinity groups, they also undertake work for many other industry sectors.

Their aim is as a matter of routine to:

  • Systematically analyse client needs, including a review of risk management systems
  • Determine a clients ability to retain risk
  • Tailor insurance programmes to organisational needs
  • Negotiate on policy wording and terms
  • Offer additional capabilities and services such as fire risk assessments and business continuity planning
  • Justify clearly to clients the value added by their appointment
