Unique insight into broker attitudes to eTrading

For the past 8 years, Insurance Times has been conducting the annual Etrading Survey. Each year our research team works with all insurers and software houses to create a survey that investigates key etrading areas that can help drive your business forward. In order to be part of the next stages of the report, each insurer and software house must receive 100 or more broker responses.

Each year brokers from across the nation take part to provide feedback that can help the direction of etrading, services, products and more. The insight gained from the survey results in creating the following aspects:

• The Insurance Times eTrading Five Star Ratings listings – Each insurer and software house that reaches the threshold required will be included in the online star ratings. Each insurer and software house that meets the requirements will have their own profile page which contains their star ratings, intermediated strategy, broker feedback and more, written by Insurance Times.

• NEW FOR THIS YEAR. To enable insurers to put their Etrading Five Star ratings in context we will be publishing the Etrading Five Star results early on an embargoed basis to give insurers and software houses the opportunity to explain their service approach through sponsored content. Insurers will also be able to highlight key contacts and embed direct links to their own websites. This will directly connect brokers analysing the etrading results with your key decision makers.
