The Blog Spot: Breaking barriers to insurance

Laurence Eastham

As Biba focuses on improving access to insurance in its manifesto, commissioning editor Laurence Eastham considers where changes will occur in 2020.

As the title of this year’s British Insurance Brokers’ Association (Biba) manifesto, ‘access’ is set to be the buzz word of 2020.

The manifesto was launched at Parliament on Tuesday 21 January. It contains a broad set of goals for the industry and the trade body – there are 37 commitments and 29 calls for action – but the primary focus is on improving access to insurance for customers and businesses.
