Morning all,

Please could I ask if others have a professional indemnity insurance that they are able to recommend, and could perhaps PM me with an approximate cost.

Regards
James Fairchild ACMA
 
We use Hiscox, always got a decent price from them, but cost will obviously depend on your fee income and the level of cover you are looking for.

I'd recommend Lockton (as recommended by the ACCA) no problems at all -

Lockton
North Quay, Temple Back, Bristol BS1 6FL
Tel: 0117 906 5000
fax: 0117 906 5099

Premiums vary so much depending on cover, history etc.

I used Icon Insurance for quite some time.

I have also used a local broker - pdavenport at insurance-partnership dot com - email him with your requirements and I am sure he will be competitive. Mention me in all contact with Paul.

Cheers,
Nick Robinson, Director
Yorkshire Accountancy Limited

I recently swapped insurance companies - joined FSB and the money that I saved by using their brokers has more than covered the joining fee.

It pays to have a good look around as quotes varied enormously for what appeared to be similar policies.

Hi Yorkshire James,


If you want to compare a variety of insurers, it may be worth your while visiting our website: coverzones.com. You can explore first hand a range of professional indemnity prices suited to your particular business activities.


Hope this helps,


Steve

And again for Hiscox. They seem to be the only ones that accept that non Chartered Accountants pose no more risk than members of the Institute. That said, they seem to use the same policy as for the Chartereds and you'll need to be constantly checking their paperwork. I pay £344 as a one man band using cover of 2.5 times annual fees. Doesn't cover audit or financial services business.
