Howden

Howden’s specialist practice for financial advisers, mortgage and insurance brokers is one of the largest teams in this specialist sector.

Did you know that we act for more than 40% of the financial advisory market including one-third of the largest 100 firms? Or that we have access to exclusive insurance facilities simply not available elsewhere?

Protean, now a part of Howden, previously held a long-standing partnership with APCC. We are delighted to continue this relationship under the Howden brand. Many of our specialists have decades of experience in placing insurance programmes specifically for these professions. Our longevity within the sector means we deliver a friendly and professional service; we understand the pressures that regulated firms are under and can share our experience of guiding clients through many complete market cycles.  We have strong relationships with insurers, and if the worst happens then we help our clients navigate their way through a broad range of claims, trying to take as much stress out of the situation as possible.

Insurance coverage

Many of our clients initially come to us for advice regarding their professional indemnity (PI) insurance. However, we also offer the full spectrum of services relevant to regulated advice businesses including cyber liability, directors’ & officers’ liability (D&O) and employee benefits.

In particular, we have seen that cyber-crime is increasing, with Artificial Intelligence (AI) being used to create convincing “deep-fake” frauds.  Unfortunately, if a firm’s security is breached, there is a high risk of losing money and/or client data and the long-term reputational damage can ultimately be catastrophic.

If you would like to speak to one of our experts about any of your clients’ insurance requirements, please get in touch. You can also find out more information on our website. [link]
