Specialist motor insurer and underwriting agency Tradex is launching a series of products in a bid to increase the size of its motor business from £65m to £100m.

Acquisitions in the south of England have not been ruled out.

The company has recently unveiled its Home Fleet product, aimed at individuals and families who own a range of vehicles. The product is expected to bring around £10m gross written premiums (GWP) in the first year.

Roy Clegg, founder and chief executive of Tradex, said: "£10m is a modest amount but it will enable us to understand the risk. We have launched the product to the public but are aiming for a big push in the spring. [Our] growth plans, to reach £100m in motor in the next couple of years, is a sensible figure for a company like ours."

He said Tradex had written a couple of million pounds worth of policies for Home Fleet to date.

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.
