More than 800 UKGI brokers have been rating commercial and personal lines insurers for the report
Insurance Times can reveal the headline results of its combined Five Star Rating Report: Commercial and Personal Lines 2024.
While the full report and findings will be published in March this year, Insurance Times is today (7 February 2024) revealing the overall star ratings for both commercial and personal line insurers, as rated by UKGI brokers.
Brokers rated insurers through the Broker Service Survey, which has run for the past 18 years.
The most recent survey, conducted between October and December 2023, saw more than 800 brokers identify and rate the insurers with which they have regularly placed business during the past 12 months.
It asked brokers for their opinions, attitudes and satisfaction with the service they receive from insurance partners.
Results
In 2024’s report, Markel and Arch Insurance ranked the highest when it came to commercial lines service for brokers.
These two insurers were awarded the maximum five stars for overall service across all five of the areas investigated by the Broker Service Survey.
Meanwhile, seven insurers achieved an overall four star rating for their commercial lines service, three insurers achieved a three star rating and one insurer achieved a two star rating.
