Fleet Insurance
Our fleet policy is very similar to those of the composite markets. Importantly, we are not stuck in our ways and are happy to accommodate brokers’ requests to consider different aspects of cover. However, there are certain areas where we have clear views:
Drivers - we pay particular attention to drivers’ age and experience and set our terms accordingly.
Vehicles - we prefer the vehicles to be registered in the name of the company and primarily used on company business. We will cover vehicles not registered to the company, as long as we have the details and understand why you require the fleet policy to cover these vehicles.
Vehicle types - we will cover most, other than Buses, Coaches and minibuses (unless the latter are part of a larger fleet).
What we like to cover
- Non-Standard small and large fleets - those where you are having problems placing because of claims, occupations, postcodes, etc.
- Haulage and Couriers - we like them to have three years’ claims experience and are willing to look at risk management, telemetry and cameras (but these are not compulsory).
- Standard fleets - we will look at these, of course, but our preference is for the more difficult to place risks.
What we are not willing to cover
- Bus & Coach and Taxi fleets
- Motor Trade
- Self-Drive Hire
