Simply Business partners with Allianz to expand small business insurance offering

Simply Business has secured Allianz UK as the latest addition to the digital broker’s panel of insurers.

The new partnership aims to expand Simply Business’s insurance offering for its small and micro business customers. 

The insurer will offer a number of products via Simply Business’ platform, including product liability, employers’ liability and tools cover. 

Eibhlin Swan, director of digital trading at Allianz UK, said: “Small businesses need insurance that’s easy to buy, flexible and built around the realities of running a business.

”Partnering with Simply Business allows us to bring Allianz’s expertise and breadth of cover to a digital platform that is already doing a great job of putting customers first. Together, we’re making it simpler for SMEs to access protection that meets their needs as they grow and evolve.”

Allianz UK aims to expand the partnership later this year with more products.

Julie Fisher, UK chief executive at Simply Business, said: “We’re delighted to announce our partnership with Allianz – this partnership continues our commitment to delivering simplicity, choice and value to small business owners when researching and buying insurance. 

“We know that running a small business takes an equal dose of pioneering spirit and hard work – and for over 20 years we’ve been on a mission to make the insurance experience as simple and fair as possible for this community by harnessing the power of data and technology. 

“Partnering with a leading insurer like Allianz – who share our passion for the audience and bring a wealth of experience offering products that meet their needs - only strengthens our offering. We’re pleased that our SME customers can now access their products via our panel of up to 22 insurance brands.”
