The Innovation Imperative: Why brokers matter more than ever

As global risks grow more complex, brokers are playing an increasingly vital role. However, regulatory perspectives, especially in the London Market, still tend to view broking as little more than a transactional “distribution cost,” overlooking the deep advisory, placement, and client advocacy expertise brokers deliver every day.

To challenge this perception, the London and International Insurance Brokers’ Association (LIIBA) has partnered with Gracechurch and Trimstone Partners on a dedicated research initiative. This project aims to provide a robust, data-driven picture of the broker’s true value within today’s insurance ecosystem. The findings will be unveiled in advance of the CIAB Conference in October.
