Biba appoints Home & Legacy as high-net worth provider

Home & Legacy has been appointed by the British Insurance Brokers’ Association (Biba) as its provider of high-net worth (HNW) insurance.

It will see the broker provide HNW insurance to Biba’s membership of under 2,000 regulated firms.

And it follows Home & Legacy being ranked high by brokers for its claims service and e-trading facilities.

The broker announced earlier this month that it will add all products to its e-trading platform by the end of the year.

Biba made a commitment in its 2019 Manifesto to help UK brokers navigate the landscape post-Brexit and continue serving EU clients.

Scheme

The scheme will see Biba members use the broker’s household cover, flexible underwriting, in-house claims handling and high-net worth e-trading through Home & Legacy Online.

Barry O’Neill, managing director at Home & Legacy, welcomed the news.

He said: “This new partnership illustrates how Biba is endorsing an established name in high net worth insurance that brokers trust and rely on.

“Home & Legacy is extremely proud to be that name and we’re thrilled to be offering our products and services to Biba members.”

Mike Hallam, head of technical services at Biba, said: “Biba is delighted to collaborate with Home & Legacy to fulfil one of our most popular schemes.

“Home & Legacy has a solid track record of supporting brokers and this new arrangement extends this offering. In a marketplace which has contracted in 2018 we see the scheme bringing much-needed access and flexibility to all our members.”

Home & Legacy is wholly-owned by Allianz.
