What is premium finance?

Premium finance can help spread the cost of your insurance cover through regular instalments.

Premium finance isn't insurance, but a solution for paying your insurance premiums. It means that you can pay for multiple insurance policies under one premium finance agreement, putting them all in one place so you only one payment to deal with.

The benefits of premium finance

There are many advantages for any business:

  • Improved cash flow – Paying your insurance policy through regular, monthly payments, rather than the whole premium as a large upfront payment, can free up more cash to invest in your business.
  • Corporation tax relief – Premium finance is tax deductible, so you can claim tax back and improve your tax bill.
  • A healthier balance sheet – For some businesses, premium finance monthly instalments can be classed as off-balance-sheet financing (OBS). This increases the health of your balance sheet, freeing up money to spend on your business and growth opportunities.
  • Multiple policies, less hassle – Multiple policies can be financed on a single credit agreement and one monthly payment, so all of your business insurance needs can be paid for in one place.
