Oaktree Insurance Solutions has devised a scheme – Multi-Let – to include all types of property used to house asylum seekers.

Faced with the pressure of ever-increasing numbers of asylum seekers in the UK –currently rising at a rate of 6,000 a month – the Government and local councils have been forced to turn to private landlords and hoteliers in an attempt to provide housing until their cases are heard.

Mark Vaughan, the commercial insurance executive, said: “Many of the major insurers, worried by a variety of factors, are either refusing to quote or increasing their premiums substantially. It has left landlords in a limbo, with few places to go.”

He added: “We feel we can offer landlords and hoteliers the widest possible property insurance at extremely competitive prices.”


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.
