The Loss Management Group (LMG), which handles 30,000 jewellery claims a year on behalf of insurers, has published a guide to buying, insuring and keeping safe jewellery for consumers.

The booklet covers a wide variety of issues, including buying items overseas, protecting against burglary and what to look out for when buying gems.

It also gives advice on insuring jewellery and outlines what people should do if their valuables are lost or stolen.

Managing director Tony LeFevre said: "Policyholders are always asking us for advice on jewellery, so we thought it was time to publish our own guide. We hope it will take some of the mystery out of buying jewellery and encourage people to protect it from burglary or loss."

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.
