BHIB Insurance Brokers has unveiled a new broking business especially designed for freelancing creative types.
The BHIB trading name “Create Insurance” came to life by bringing together former freelancers themselves, ensuring that the proposition is based on an in-house understanding of the freelance economy.
Catering to the creative industries, Create Insurance will allow policyholders to choose from a suite of appropriate levels of cover for themselves as well as their work and equipment. Its platform was put together by BHIB’s software company Brokertech.
“We’ve launched something new and exciting to help creative freelancers buy the insurance they need,” commented Ajay Mistry (pictured), partnerships director for BHIB and Create Insurance. “We’ve married BHIB’s wealth of insurance broking expertise, with a team of freelancers to build a fresh and flexible service.”
Mistry added: “Customers can buy short-term as well as annual policies and will have access to easy online claims reporting. They will also benefit from a 24/7 legal helpline; UK, EU, or worldwide cover; and free HR tools, among other benefits.
“Using our own software house, Brokertech, means we have not only designed and built exactly what we wanted, but also means we can really speedily change and evolve Create to suit the evolving needs of our customers.”
Hiscox underwrites the general insurance policies of Create Insurance, while Vitality provides the life insurance and income protection options.
