about our company
Let us help you plan, plan, prepare and protect
Holgate Corporate Risks is a long established and respected independent wholesale broker whose ownership has been with the same family for well over 30 years. Our philosophy has always been to provide the quality insurance products and standard of service our supporting broker partners expect and deserve.
Peace of mind
As a long established broker, you know you’re in safe hands
Family run business with values
As a family business we value support, security and respect, traits that are central to our philosophy
Our close proximity to The City of London, coupled with our shareholding in a Lloyds broker, means we can react to those risks that require specialist and niche underwriting expertise.
We only trade with a finite number of brokers, thus enabling us to offer an element of exclusivity – a trait so often overlooked by our competitors – as opposed to just a broker collecting’ exercise.

Testimonials
Client’s Feedback
"First class advice and service "
Here at Yourshield we pride ourselves on fantastic customer service and being an extension to our clients businesses when it comes to Insurance placement and risk management. This would only be possible with an insurer partner like Holgate. They are always on hand to provide us with first class advice, service and a refreshing open and honest conversation about risk. I could not recommend them highly enough to other brokers for insurance placement and we look forward to many more years ahead of building on our fantastic working relationship.
"Very knowledgeable and extremely efficient"
I've been working with Holgate now for a number and years and never had a single complaint. The team are very knowledgeable and extremely efficient, from broking all the way to claims and accounts. They're not greedy either -everything they do is to help us Brokers! Will continue working with them for years to come!!"Easy to communicate with"
We find the team at Holgate really easy to communicate with - which can be hard to find these days. They are always professional and go the extra mile to help get risks placed. Great access to markets and one of our 'go-to' brokers for lots of different classes."They have benefited us over the years."
"Invicta Insurance Partners" was a new venture when Holgate were one of the first to offer us a trading facility. I have to say that their Underwriters have a positive approach and always look for ways to do business rather, than reject things out hand. Their positive approach and placement strategy has benefited us over the years. We intend to support Holgate going forward based on our relationship and their commitment to innovation.
