Why insurers choose us

  • You see the publication name before you commit — no blind retainers.
  • Placement is guaranteed, so you are not paying for an attempt.
  • Written to editorial standard by people who understand regulated products.
  • Live, permanent URLs you can use in sales, tenders and funding decks.

What does an insurance PR agency do?

An insurance PR agency earns editorial coverage for insurers, brokers, MGAs and insurtech firms in national, trade and financial media. It turns claims data, product launches, funding rounds and market commentary into stories journalists actually want to publish — building the third-party trust that regulated financial products depend on. United Press guarantees the placement rather than charging you for the attempt.

Our approach

We combine PR strategy, media relations, thought leadership and digital PR to turn complex insurance, risk and protection stories into clear narratives an audience can actually follow.

What you can expect

Relevant media coverage, stronger brand positioning, greater industry visibility, and real recognition for your people, your expertise and your business.

Why it matters

Insurance PR that delivers more than coverage

In insurance, reputation is part of the product. How your business communicates shapes trust, confidence and long-term growth long before anyone reads a policy document — and four different audiences are judging you at the same time.

Customers

Customers need clarity

Plain-English answers about cover, claims and price — ideally from a name they have already seen somewhere they trust.

Partners

Businesses need confidence

Brokers, capacity providers and commercial partners back firms whose credibility is visible, not just asserted in a pitch deck.

Capital

Investors need evidence

Independent coverage is the proof that a growth story is real. It is what gets checked before a term sheet, not after.

Media

The media needs experts

Journalists are permanently short of people who can explain what is actually happening in the market. That gap is your opening.

Insurance is complex. Your expertise should not stay hidden behind technical language — our job is to make it legible, quotable and impossible to ignore.

Challenges we solve

The seven problems insurance brands bring us

Almost every insurance business that calls us is stuck on one of these. Each one has a communications answer — it is rarely a case of needing to shout louder.

Complex stories

We turn technical products, data and specialist knowledge into stories a non-specialist reader can follow without losing the accuracy that matters to you.

Low brand visibility

We find the openings to put your business and your expertise into the industry conversations that are already happening without you.

Trust and reputation

We demonstrate credibility through evidence and expertise rather than adjectives — the only kind of proof this sector actually responds to.

Generic PR

We move past the round of repetitive company announcements to find sharper angles, real insight and the human story underneath the business one.

Executive visibility

We help senior leaders convert what they know into thought leadership and named media opportunities, instead of it staying in internal decks.

Competitive markets

We differentiate you by communicating what genuinely makes your people, expertise and proposition worth choosing over a cheaper quote.

Measuring PR impact

We report on outcomes that mean something — relevant coverage, visibility, positioning and authority — not impression counts.

The difference

Guaranteed publication — not “best efforts”

Most insurance PR is sold the same way: a six or twelve month retainer, a monthly report, and a quiet hope that a journalist bites. You carry the risk. You pay for the effort, not the outcome.

We work the other way round. We tell you which publication your story is going into, we confirm your brand is a fit for it, and only then do you commit. If we cannot place you, you are not buying an attempt.

  • The title is named and confirmed before your campaign starts.
  • Fixed scope and fixed cost — no open-ended monthly retainer.
  • Written as editorial, so it reads as journalism and not advertising.
  • A permanent, live URL you can put in front of clients and underwriters.
Trusted since 2001. Insurance is a trust business. So is ours — which is why we would rather guarantee the outcome than sell you the activity.

Who we work with

Insurance PR for every part of the market

The story that lands for a Lloyd’s syndicate is not the story that lands for a direct-to-consumer motor brand. We build the angle around where you actually sit in the market — and around the journalists who cover that corner of it.

Insurers & underwriters

Market commentary, claims insight and results coverage that positions you as a serious voice, not just another provider.

Brokers & intermediaries

Local and national visibility that wins commercial clients and referral partners. See our PR for insurance brokers service.

MGAs & Lloyd’s market

Specialist and delegated-authority stories placed where capacity providers and coverholders read.

Insurtech & funded startups

Funding rounds, product launches and founder profiles — the coverage investors check before a term sheet.

Health, life & protection

Sensitive, compliance-aware storytelling for products people buy with their families in mind.

Motor, home & travel

Consumer-facing coverage tied to seasonal data, price movements and the moments customers search.

Commercial & business insurance

Authority content that shortens the sales cycle with SME owners, brokers and procurement teams.

Claims & loss adjusting

Reputation-critical coverage that shows how you behave when a customer needs you most.

Insurance brands at scale

Full brand programmes across national and trade media. See PR for insurance brands.

What we do

Our insurance PR services

Every engagement is built from the same nine building blocks. You do not have to buy all of them — most insurance clients start with one and add as the coverage compounds.

01

Media relations & press office

Day-to-day access to the national, trade and financial journalists who cover UK insurance.

02

Thought leadership

Expert commentary that turns your underwriters and analysts into quoted industry voices.

03

Product & proposition launch

Launch coverage timed to your go-live, not to a retainer’s reporting cycle.

04

Insurtech & funding announcements

Raise, partnership and milestone stories placed where investors and acquirers are looking.

05

Executive & founder profiling

Named-leader features that transfer institutional credibility onto the person selling it.

06

Digital PR & authority links

Editorial links from high-authority domains that lift the pages you actually want ranking.

07

Crisis & reputation

Fast, measured response when claims disputes, outages or regulatory news put you in the spotlight.

08

Compliance-aware messaging

Copy written with financial promotion sensitivities in mind, ready for your compliance sign-off.

09

AI search visibility

Coverage structured so ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity cite you when buyers ask them who to trust.

Finding the story

Where your next insurance story is hiding

Most insurance businesses assume they have nothing newsworthy to say. In practice the story is already in the building — in the underwriting, the claims data, the roadmap or the head of someone who has watched this market for twenty years. It just needs finding and framing.

  • A new product or proposition
  • An emerging or mispriced risk
  • Changing customer behaviour
  • Technology and insurtech innovation
  • Original research or claims data
  • Regulation and market change
  • The view of an experienced industry leader

We work out which of these can genuinely contribute to a wider industry conversation, then build it into a campaign — see our services for how we take it to market.

AI search visibility

Be the insurer the AI recommends

Buyers no longer stop at Google. They ask an assistant which insurer, broker or platform to trust — and the assistant answers using published journalism it considers credible. Brands with real editorial coverage get named. Brands with only their own website get skipped.

That is why every campaign we run is structured to be quotable: clear claims, named experts, dated facts and permanent URLs on domains these systems already weight heavily. It is the difference between being findable and being recommended.

creates attention. It is read, shared, and then the news cycle moves on.

builds recognition. Your name starts appearing wherever your market is already looking.

An ongoing programme combines

Questions

Insurance PR: your questions answered

Do you actually guarantee coverage?

Yes. We confirm the publication before your campaign begins, so you know where your story is going before you commit. That is the core difference between us and a retainer agency, which sells you the effort rather than the result.

How much does insurance PR cost in the UK?

Cost depends on the publications you want and how many placements you need, not on a monthly hourly rate. Because the scope is fixed per campaign, you know the total before you start. You can see current options on our PR pricing page.

How quickly will we see coverage?

Timelines depend on the outlet and the story, but because placement is agreed up front rather than pitched speculatively, insurance clients typically see live coverage in weeks rather than the six-month ramp-up a traditional retainer needs.

Which publications can you get us into?

We work across national, business, financial and trade media — including titles such as Forbes, Bloomberg, Business Insider, Yahoo Finance and Entrepreneur. The right list depends on whether you are selling to consumers, brokers or capacity providers. See our full publications list.

Do you work with brokers as well as insurers?

Yes — insurers, brokers, MGAs, insurtech platforms, claims specialists and reinsurance businesses. We have dedicated services for insurance brokers and insurance brands.

Can you write about regulated products without creating compliance problems?

We write with financial promotion sensitivities in mind and send everything for your compliance sign-off before it goes anywhere. We will not make a product claim on your behalf that your own team has not approved.

How is insurance PR different from insurance marketing?

Marketing is what you say about yourself. PR is what an independent publication says about you. In a trust-driven category like insurance, the second one carries the weight — with customers, with partners and increasingly with AI assistants that cite journalism rather than advertising.

Do you work with insurtech startups?

Yes. Funding rounds, launches, partnerships and founder profiles are some of the most placeable stories in the sector, and they are the coverage investors look for when they research you.

Will this help us show up in AI search?

It is designed to. Assistants such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Perplexity answer using published journalism they consider credible, so genuine editorial coverage on authoritative domains is the most direct route to being named in those answers.

Do you only work with London insurance firms?

No. We are a UK-wide insurance PR agency and work with firms across the country, as well as international insurers targeting the UK market. Being in the Lloyd’s postcode is not a requirement for national coverage.

How do you measure PR success?

We assess campaigns on coverage quality and relevance, brand visibility, share of voice, audience reach, online mentions and progress against your wider business objectives — not on impression counts that no one can act on.

Do you understand complex insurance topics?

Yes. We work with your team to understand the specialist knowledge behind the story, then translate it into clear, engaging communications without losing the substance that makes it credible to the industry.

What do you need from us?

Your expertise, your priorities, any data you are willing to share, and access to the right spokespeople. We handle strategy, messaging, content development and campaign delivery from there.

Can you help build the profile of our senior leaders?

Yes. We develop thought leadership and media opportunities around genuine expertise, helping CEOs, founders and senior specialists become recognised voices in their part of the market.
