Whilst there is a general movement within many industries to cut out the middlemen on the basis that it reduces cost to the consumer and provides for a quicker and easier transaction, insurance broking is an exception to that rule. You will usually find that Insurers who compete for your business directly often provide that product to you by means of reducing or removing important aspects of the cover and/or imposing onerous conditions. Given insurance can be a mind field, often customers are none-the-wiser.
That’s not to say that buying direct will save you money. In fact it shouldn’t surprise you to know that brokers usually access better rates, and much more favorable wording than buying insurance directly.

Hi Rebecca, I'm glad that you discovered that my previous business policy setup by my old broker would not cover my business due to the nature of my business activities. You warned me upfront that you would like to ask as many questions as needed and to be upfront with you and the end result is that my eyes are open to the risks my insurer see's in my business and my duty to disclose details I would never have been asked by previous brokers. Now I warn other business owners to be selective of their broker or better still to deal with you. Thanks again and Merry Christmas!
