Insurance Business is once again scouring the country for the best brokerages. The 2017 Report showcased some impressive work by BizCover, which topped the ranking for the second year in a row, as well as longtime regulars like Apollo Risk Services and Elliott Insurance Brokers.

This year the brokerages will be facing even tougher competition with the inaugural Insurance Business Awards, held in May, uncovering a number of new contenders for the Top 10 listing. While there is some overlap, many of the finalists of the brokerage categories have not previously been featured in the reports. Past entrants are invited to submit again against this pool of fresh names for the most competitive year yet. 

As in previous years, Insurance Business will rank submissions according to a unique methodology that will take into consideration criteria such as premium income, client retention and policies written during the 2017/18 financial year. The methodology ensures that all businesses are compared on a level playing field.

Entries are open until Friday, July 27. The winners will be announced in issue 7.05 of Insurance Business, out in September.
