Have we met before?

Bluefin, Clark Thomson, Jelf - our history as a local UK insurance broker goes back a long way.

In 2015 Jelf became part of Marsh, joining the Marsh McLennan (MMC) family of businesses. MMC are the world's leading professional services firm in risk, strategy and people, helping clients survive and grow in changing times for over 150 years.

A year later (2016), Bluefin merged with Jelf. 2018 saw Clark Thomson welcomed to the family with open arms. And in 2020 these brands evolved to become Marsh Commercial.

Today, our business is structured to deliver the power of Marsh right on your doorstep. While part of a world-leading insurance group, we’re proud to be a UK community broker specialising in servicing SME businesses, across a local branch network the length of the country. That makes us big enough to keep you safe, but small enough to care.

What business insurance do I legally require?

The insurance you legally require may depend on a variety of factors such as the nature of your business, the number of employees you have, and the type of work you do. Some of the most common types of insurance that SMEs in the UK typically need include:

  1. Employers liability insurance: This is a legal requirement for businesses with one or more employees. It covers the cost of compensation claims made by employees who are injured or become ill as a result of their work.
  2. Public liability insurance: This is not a legal requirement, but it is recommended for businesses that interact with members of the public. It covers the cost of compensation claims made by members of the public who are injured or have their property damaged as a result of your business activities. It may be a contractual requirement depending on the industry you work in.
  3. Professional indemnity insurance: This is recommended for businesses that provide professional services, such as accountants, architects, or solicitors. It covers the cost of compensation claims made by clients who suffer financial loss as a result of your professional advice or services. It may be a contractual requirement depending on the industry you work in.
  4. Business property insurance: This covers damage to your business premises, equipment, and stock caused by events such as fire, theft, or flooding.
