Should you request a material mid-term adjustment or series of adjustments to your insurance or an exceptional claim incident occurs we may seek to negotiate an additional fee with you at the time. In addition to client fees and/or brokerage payments we may receive remuneration from insurers reflecting the aggregated income and or profitability of our entire account with them. In all such circumstances, our duty to act in the best possible interests of our customers remains paramount. In addition to brokerage or an agreed fee basis of remuneration we may also receive benefit from income that is receivable from premium financing companies calculated by reference to the total volume of premiums financed. We will, if requested, disclose the amount of any commission being earned. If the exact amount cannot be confirmed, the basis for calculating such figures will be disclosed.

There will usually be a charge for paying by instalments and full details will be provided if you select this option All policy premiums are to be paid by inception or renewal date unless specifically agreed in writing by us. All premiums paid to us, together with any premiums returned to us by insurers, are held by us in a separate Non-Statutory Trust account designated as a client account in accordance with FCA rules. A copy of the Deed of Trust is available on request In most cases, our financial arrangements with insurance companies are on a ‘risk transfer’ basis, which means that we hold premiums and refunds on behalf of the insurer i.e. the risk is transferred to the insurer and the premium is deemed to be in the insurer’s possession. You will be notified in cases where ‘risk transfer’ does not apply In the case of some transactions, client money may pass through other authorised intermediaries before the insurer receives it Failure to comply with our credit terms may invalidate your insurance Your insurance is based upon the information provided to the insurance company. Under the terms of the Act, before a contract of insurance is entered into you must make to an insurer a fair presentation of the risk – a fair presentation of the risk is one in which the information must be presented in a way which would be reasonably clear and accessible to a prudent insurer. A fair presentation of the risk requires clear and accessible disclosure, without material misrepresentation, of every material circumstance which the insured knows/ought to know; Or, failing that, sufficient information to put a prudent insurer on notice that it needs to make further enquiries to reveal those material circumstances What must actively be disclosed: Knowledge of senior management; knowledge of the insurance team (including broker); information which would be revealed by a reasonable search. Insurer remedies for breach: If the breach was deliberate or reckless, the insurer can avoid the contract from inception and can keep the premium. The insurer must prove that the breach was deliberate or reckless. If the breach was not deliberate or reckless, then there are a number of options available to the insurer if they wish to impose a remedy. More than one remedy can be applied - the insurer must show that they would have acted in that way if the breach of duty had not occurred. If the insurer would not have written the risk if it had known the information which has come to light, then it can avoid the contract but it has to repay the premium. If the insurer would have charged a higher premium, then it can proportionately reduce any claims payments. If the insurer would have included new terms, or imposed different terms other than with respect to premium such as conditions / warranties, exclusions, different extensions, sub-limits etc., the contract is to be treated as if it had been entered into on those terms. Unless you are a Consumer (an individual buying insurance wholly or mainly for purposes unrelated to your trade, business or profession) you must disclose to insurers, before the setting up or renewal of your contract is concluded, any fact or circumstance which is known to you (or which after enquiry ought to be known to you) and which is material to the risk. A fact or circumstance is material if it would influence the judgement of an insurer in fixing the premium, setting the terms or determining whether they would take the risk. If you are uncertain whether a fact is material, you should disclose it. If you are a Consumer you must take reasonable care to answer all questions fully and accurately. Once cover has been arranged, you must immediately notify us of any changes to the information that has been provided to your insurers. Material Facts are matters or information which may influence your insurer as to the acceptability or otherwise of your risk and the terms your insurer may require. They must be disclosed at the earliest opportunity and certainly at each renewal and also throughout the life of a policy. If you are in any doubt as to whether any information constitutes a Material Fact, you must disclose it to us or your insurer. If any document is completed in whole or in part on your behalf, it is your responsibility to check that the answers given are true and complete. You are advised to keep copies of any correspondence or documentation sent to us for your own protection. Please do consult us if you are in doubt on any aspect. All statements and facts disclosed on proposal forms, statement of facts, claim forms and other documents must, to the best of your ability, be full, true and accurate. Where forms are completed on your behalf you must check them for accuracy and completeness before signing them. You must always read the declaration and make sure you understand it before you sign. It is important that you understand that any information, statement or answer provided by you, to us or your insurer, is your responsibility and must be correct. Your attention is particularly drawn to the importance of the declaration and signature on any insurers’ proposal form or Statement of Fact as any failure to disclose facts material to the insurance or any inaccuracies in your answer may invalidate your insurance cover in part or in its entirety. Awareness of Policy Terms When a policy is issued you should read it carefully, as it is that document including the schedule and any certificate of insurance that is the basis of the insurance contract you have purchased. You should keep all policy documents for as long as a claim is possible under the policy. If you are in doubt over any of the policy terms or conditions, please seek our advice promptly. In particular, please watch for and be totally aware of any exclusions and/or warranties which have been applied to your insurance, as failure to comply with them may invalidate your cover Renewal We will contact you well in advance of renewal to discuss your requirements. If your premium is payable by monthly Direct Debit, we may (but accept no responsibility to) renew your policy automatically for your protection. Your new monthly payment will be collected on the usual due date. However, if you do not have wish to renew, please tell us at least 7 days prior to renewal date Cancellation Your insurance contract may include a cancellation clause. A cancellation clause is mandatory for retail policies. You should make any request for the cancellation of a policy which meets in writing and any relevant Certificate of Insurance should be returned to us or to the insurer concerned if required to do so. In the event of cancellation, charges for our services will apply in accordance with the Tariff of Fees attached. The terms of your stated needs, we policy may allow insurers to retain the premium in full or to charge short period premiums in the event of cancellation. Time on Risk / Short Period Charges If you cancel your insurance in the first year with a new insurer it is very likely that they will tell charge what is known as short period rates. This will mean that the percentage of premium charged will be greater than the percentage of lapsed time. You should ensure that you which requirements understand the total charge being made before you cancel any existing insurance policy. Some classes of business require minimum & deposit premiums. This means that the amount charged is the minimum premium underwriters will accept for the risk and there will be no return premium for early cancellation. It also means that whilst these policies are not met to enable you to make an informed decision. As part of our service, we will assist you with any claim you need to make adjustable and tell you what your responsibilities are in relation to making claimsadditional premiums may be payable no return premium is allowed below the specific minimum & deposit.
