We have a traditional approach to service, working on a long-term relationship basis with our clients, becoming their trusted insurance advisor that can be called upon whenever needed. We always put our client’s interests first, meeting their needs by providing the most suitable and comprehensive insurance solutions with a financially strong, quality panel of insurers.
Whilst truly independent, Hallsdale Commercial are part of the Ataraxia Broking network, a collection of independent insurance brokers with over £120m in Gross Written Premiums. Being part of the Ataraxia family ensures that we have access to all available markets and have the buying power of the larger broking groups, which gives us the ability to secure premiums and terms that many other brokers are not able to access.
Transfer of risk to an insurer is just part of the risk management process. Where risk transfer is the only option, we want to ensure that our clients’ premium spend is as competitive as possible. To achieve this, we will provide advice on suitable risk control methods.
When an identified risk falls outside the scope of general insurance, we will provide referrals to our professional partners. This includes HR and independent financial advisors, who offer a wide range of Life Insurance covers.
Our company ethos is to ensure that we are customer-focused and provide a professional service at all times. We’re proud to be growing organically by retaining business and gaining referrals.
