Readhunt, an independent insurance broker providing UK businesses with sector-specific expertise and tailored cover, has received Lloyd’s of London Broker registration.

The accreditation broadens the firm’s ability to offer customised insurance solutions across multiple sectors, marking an important point in its strategic development.

The registration allows Readhunt to access Lloyd’s syndicates directly, enabling collaboration with specialist underwriters and the creation of bespoke insurance programmes for technically complex or non-standard risks.

The development reinforces Readhunt’s position in the commercial insurance sector, with particular relevance to construction, manufacturing, professional services, and intricate property portfolios.

The company has emphasised that its client-focused, relationship-driven approach will continue unchanged. The Lloyd’s registration broadens its access to insurers and market options, enhancing rather than altering its current service offering.

Tony Saunders, Managing Director, Readhunt, commented: “Achieving Lloyd’s broking registration is an important development for our business and, more importantly, for our clients. Direct access to the Lloyd’s market enhances our ability to negotiate and structure solutions for complex risks while maintaining the independent, relationship-driven approach that defines Readhunt.”

Tom Shipston, Chief Executive Officer, SRT & Partners, added: “This milestone reflects our continued investment in expertise, governance and market relationships. Lloyd’s Broker registration strengthens Readhunt’s London Market presence and supports the wider group’s long-term growth ambitions while preserving our independent advisory ethos.”
