About Brown & Brown

Founded as a family business in 1939, Brown & Brown has grown to become a global top 10 insurance broker, helping businesses and individuals navigate an increasingly complex insurance landscape. Following the acquisition of Global Risk Partners (GRP) in 2022, we are now one of the largest insurance intermediaries in the UK and Ireland, working with almost half a million personal and commercial insurance customers.

Through our network of local insurance brokers, we support individuals and businesses with personal and commercial insurance solutions, risk management services and sector-specific support. Our teams work with customers across a broad range of industries, combining local knowledge with access to a wide range of insurer partners.

With around 140 office locations across the UK, we continue to deliver the personal service and local presence customers would expect from a local insurance broker, backed by the resources and capabilities of a global organisation.

Your Questions, Answered

An insurance broker can provide access to a range of insurer partners and insurance solutions, rather than the products of a single insurer. By taking the time to understand a customer’s circumstances and insurance needs, a broker can help them explore available options and navigate an often complex insurance market. Insurance brokers can also provide ongoing support throughout the duration of the policy.

An insurance broker can help businesses assess their specific needs, operations and potential exposures. As risks evolve, they can provide ongoing support with areas such as policy placement, renewals, claims and risk management, helping businesses make informed decisions about their insurance arrangements.

Brown & Brown supports customers with a broad range of personal insurance, business insurance and risk management solutions. Through our network of specialist teams and insurance brokers, we work with customers across a wide variety of industries and sectors, helping to provide them with access to policies that reflect their individual circumstances and requirements.

An insurer is the company that provides and underwrites an insurance policy. An insurance broker acts as an intermediary between the customer and insurer, helping customers explore available insurance solutions, access insurer markets and arrange insurance cover.
