Our permitted business is recommending general insurance policies; arranging general insurance cover; dealing as an agent and assisting with the administration and performance of policies.

We only offer cover for Deposit Protection Insurance and Insurance Backed Guarantee’s from a single insurer, Safe World Insurance Group (UK) Ltd and can only provide advice regarding their products and not based on a fair and personal analysis of the market.

We will provide information about the policies main characteristics including significant benefits, its significant exclusions and limitations and its duration. Full details of the policy terms and conditions are available to you before you agree to purchase any policy. You are responsible for deciding whether this policy meets your demands and needs.

Our majority shareholder is also a majority shareholder in Safe World Insurance Group (UK) Limited.

We have not used any other intermediary to place this business.

We act as your agent when sourcing and placing the policy from and with the insurer. In the event of a claim, we will act for your customer in dealing with the insurer if required to do so.

We derive our income from commissions paid to us in respect of the insurance placed on behalf of customers. In addition, we charge a £1.75 + VAT Registration Fee for any registration made.

You are entitled, at any time, to request information regarding any commission, which we may have received as a result of placing your insurance business.

You have a duty to provide complete and accurate information and disclose to us any material facts, which may affect the rates or terms an insurer will offer. This applies when you apply to us for access to purchasing Deposit Protection Insurance, purchasing any Insurance Backed Guarantee and for each policy you acquire for your end customer. This applies throughout the term of our agreement and the duration of any policy. If you fail to disclose any material information or change of circumstances to us or the insurers, this could invalidate your access to purchase polices via us or the insurance cover and potentially result in part or all of a claim being rejected. We strongly recommend all information provided is checked thoroughly prior to submission. If you are in any doubt as to whether a fact is material, we recommend that it be disclosed.

We shall be entitled (but not obliged) without notice to you to set off any amounts due to us from you against any amounts which we may receive on your behalf (such as claims monies, refunded premiums and other sums).

If a policy is cancelled within the first 14 days you will receive a refund of the premium paid, providing a claimable event has not occurred. The policy can be cancelled at any time after 14 days by the policyholder, but no premium refund will be applicable.

Whilst we will endeavour to place business with insurers who demonstrate an adequate level of financial solvency, and although their regulator requires them to maintain a minimum level of capital, we cannot guarantee the solvency of any insurer.

The policies you are purchasing are for a third-party consumer. Only the consumer can make a claim against the insurance policy. Full details of how they can make a claim including the insurers contact details are detailed in the policy documentation.

We hold your monies as the agent of the insurer. This means that monies received by us, are deemed to have been received by the insurer. This includes premium(s), refunds and claims monies. Between receiving any money from you and us passing it on to insurers (and vice versa), we may earn a small amount of interest on these monies, which we will retain.

By accepting these terms, you consent to the way we will hold your premium (and/or other insurance related money) in accordance with this paragraph.

We are covered by the FSCS. Policyholders may be entitled to compensation from the scheme if we cannot meet our obligations. This depends on the type of business and the circumstances of a claim against us. Insurance advising and arranging is covered for 90% of the claim, with no upper limit. For compulsory classes of insurance, insurance advising and arranging is covered for 100% of any claim, without upper limit.

Further information about compensation scheme arrangements is available from the FSCS, by visiting www.fscs.org.uk
