Further 20 expected by the end of June

Broker Network today announced that 23 independent brokers will be joining Broker Network as Associate Members with effect from 01 June 2008.

While a further 20 applications are expected within the next six weeks, bringing the total number of Associate Members to more than 40 by end of next month.

The network is giving back 1% of annual gross written premiums, up to a maximum of £10,000, to the first 50 brokers that sign up to the proposition.

Mark Wood, managing director of Broker Network, said: “The speedy uptake of our new Associate proposition supports our belief that independent insurance brokers are looking for greater choice and greater flexibility when considering the network route.

"Broker Network Associate has quickly become a fantastic method by which brokers can enjoy a taste of network life and all the benefits it can bring.”

Jo Thoy, sales director at Broker Network, added: “I would like to personally welcome our 23 new Associate Members and I very much look forward to introducing them to the many enhancements and facilities which will ultimately improve their client retention, new business potential and profitability.”
