Frequently Asked Questions

How can an insurance broker help my business?

An insurance broker acts as your expert advisor, helping you identify risks, compare policies, and secure tailored insurance solutions that match your needs. Unlike insurers, brokers work for you—not the insurance company.

Why should I use an insurance broker instead of going direct to an insurer?

Using a broker gives you access to a broader range of insurance coverage, personalised service, and expert advice tailored to the risk profile of your business. Brokers also advocate for you at claim time challenging the insurer so you can get back to business.

Can I pay monthly? Or do I have to pay annually?

While your policy will be annual, OXINS offer premium funding options, which allow you to spread your insurance costs over manageable monthly instalments to help with cash flow management. Keep in mind, these have interest rates and application fees applicable.

Is it more expensive to use an insurance broker?

Not necessarily. OXINS has access to a multitude of Insurers that are not available directly to business owners and are often able to negotiate premiums. We also structure policies that avoid unnecessary costs. Our ability to tailor cover means you pay for what you need—not what you don’t.

How do I know if my insurance cover is right for my business?

An insurance broker can assess your operations, identify exposures, and recommend appropriate cover to ensure you’re adequately protected without being over or under insured.

Can an insurance broker help me with claims?

Absolutely. A key benefit of using a broker is claims advocacy. Your broker will help prepare, lodge, and negotiate your claim with the insurer—so you’re not going it alone. The team at OXINS prides itself on the experience in managing claims

Can brokers access more insurers than I can as an individual?

Yes. Brokers typically have access to a panel of local and international insurers, including specialist markets that aren’t available to the general public. At OXINS we have access to over 400 insurers.

How often should I review my insurance program with my broker?

It’s best to review your insurance at least annually or whenever there’s a significant change in your business. A proactive broker will usually prompt these conversations. At OXINS, we set out clear service standards for each year. If once a year you receive an invoice, then its time to speak to OXINS

Do I have to wait until my current policy expires before I change insurance providers?

While it’s technically possible to change insurance providers during your policy period, we generally don’t recommend cancelling mid-term. Insurance contracts are typically arranged on an annual basis, and early cancellation can result in retained fees or commission, which may leave you in a worse financial position.

However, you can switch insurance brokers at any time, even while your current policy is active. This allows a new broker—like OXINS—to take over the management of your insurance program, handle servicing, review your cover, make mid-term coverage changes, and prepare a better solution for your next renewal.
