e-trading with imarket

Groupama Insurances are one of the six founder companies who worked with Polaris to launch and promote imarket - the industry electronic trading initiative that looks set to change the way we all operate in the UK's general insurance market.

Registering to use imarket provides intermediaries with secure access to the electronic trading services of several insurers using a single sign on.  Services available vary by insurer but include on-line quotations, immediate cover confirmation, policy issue, and such things as stationery requests.  Over 800 services are already available from the various insurers but on going development of the facility will mean that soon you could have access to services such as claims tracking and accounts reconciliation.

The best news of all is that it is FREE.  All brokers need is an internet capable PC and a browser to start trading.  Alternatively, all the broker software systems are beginning to integrate with imarket either from simple click throughs or more sophisticated linkages.  Your software provider will be happy to tell you more.

Registering for imarket couldn't be easier, just visit www.imarketinfo.co.uk and follow the instructions to be part of this new and completely free web based service.
