General insurance network Berkeley Alexander has assured IFA firms that it will continue to offer them general insurance compliance support.

General insurance network Berkeley Alexander has assured IFA firms that it will continue to offer general insurance compliance support to all firms who wish to conduct "execution only" business.

The network's reassurance comes after the Treasury's announcement that the FSA is to replace the GISC as the general insurance industry's regulator by 2004.

Berkeley Alexander general manager Geoff Hall said: "Clearly IFAs should start as they mean to go on and join the GISC or decide if they are going to be execution only introducers and talk to us about setting up seamless procedures to transact general insurance but without any regulatory responsibility.

"Furthermore, if you join GISC, you may wish to discuss how we can help with compliance, training, assessment of staff or CPD."

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
