United Kingdom Insurance Intermediaries

Insurance intermediaries play a vital role as intermediaries between insurance companies seeking to provide insurance policies and consumers seeking insurance coverage. They are traditionally known as brokers, agents, or producers, and they provide advice, information, and services related to the negotiation, placement, and administration of insurance contracts.

Insurance and reinsurance intermediaries must obtain authorization from the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). They must apply to the FCA for permission to engage in activities such as arranging deals in insurance contracts, acting as agents in insurance contracts, and assisting in the administration and performance of insurance contracts.

The application process for insurance intermediaries mirrors that for insurance companies, with relevant application forms available on the FCA website. The application fee varies based on complexity:

Authorized insurance intermediaries are also required to pay an annual fee to the FCA.
