The joy of a beautiful home; the cosseting luxury of a premium car; the unmistakable uniqueness of a treasured piece of family jewellery… the absolute mission to get it all insured properly.

Working with a specialist broker who understands the unique risks and requirements of higher-value items can take a lot of this pain away. And who doesn’t want to leave behind the mind-numbing torpor of comparison websites?

In our new video chat, Michael Gregson, head of Blackford’s private client division, and his colleague Duncan Leask, a renowned insurance sector expert, explain why ‘standard’ insurance doesn’t work for higher-value or more complex risks; why underinsurance is the bit of insurance you should be thinking about now; and how making a claim can be a good deal easier than you might expect.

Literally decades of experience and expertise rolled up into 12 minutes. Enjoy.
