Frequently asked questions

A certificate of currency is proof that you hold a current insurance policy.   

Please contact us once you have accepted your policy and we will arrange for a certificate of currency to be sent to you from your insurer. 

Even if you work from home, the risks are just as prevalent as if you worked from an office. 

Your clients can still hold you liable for improper advice, negligence or other breaches. 

As a mortgage broker, you should consider whether professional indemnity insurance and public liability insurance can help protect your business.

The risk exposures of each business can differ based on a variety of factors. Some known and emerging exposures you may face include: 

  • Negligence or breach of duty allegations from disgruntled customers 

  • Injury or property damage claims from a third party 

  • Property damage due to natural disaster 

  • Cyber-attacks if your customer or business data is stored by a third party, including accounting software and tools. 

It’s not uncommon for mortgage brokers to provide other services, including financial advice and/or accountancy services.

If you add another service to your business, you do need to let us know, and we can advise if your current coverage is sufficient, or if amendments will need to be made and additional costs apply.
