Intact Insurance UK

What Intact Insurance UK does

Intact Insurance UK Limited is the UK and International specialty/commercial insurance arm of Intact Financial Corporation, the largest general insurer in Canada. The company distributes commercial and specialty insurance exclusively through registered insurance brokers, covering property, motor, construction and engineering, marine, liability, professional and financial, cyber, agricultural, and specialty lines (rail, super yacht, wholesale international property, Scottish bonds, surety). Customers range from small UK SMEs to large multinational corporates, with claims handled by specialist teams across nine product lines.

The firm's technology layer centres on the eTrade broker portal — a digital trading platform launched with 15 products, offering eligibility tools, redesign search and Experian-powered client search — alongside Risk Assist, an online risk-management toolset for customers and brokers. Distribution is structured around a hybrid channel: dedicated regional broker support teams in the UK plus a Global Network of 130 partners across 150+ territories, supported by 8 Intact offices (London headquarters, Liverpool, Dubai, Gurugram, Isle of Man, and Channel Islands) and 3,500 risk experts worldwide.

Revenue is generated through subscription/recurring commercial insurance premiums on annual renewal cycles, with pricing determined per-risk and quoted exclusively through brokers. On 1 April 2026, the company completed a court-approved Part VII transfer absorbing Direct Line Insurance Group's brokered commercial lines business (including NIG and FarmWeb branded policies), substantially expanding the UK book. Recent recognition includes being voted the number-one insurer for Commercial Claims service by brokers in the Broker Voice 2025 Survey and Defaqto 5-Star ratings on six eTrade products.
