Forget Sunday roasts and primetime television: a disturbing number of people are spending their precious downtime scouring the internet – for insurance.

Data from One Business Insurance found that online inquiries for small businesses peaked between 9pm and 2am on weekdays and 5pm and 7pm on a Sunday.

In fact, 62% of business insurance inquiries took place outside normal working hours.

That doesn’t leave a great deal of time for anything else…

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