Source Insurance has extended its reach in the non-standard household insurance market with enhancements to its quotations engines that will allow more properties to be quoted.

Following agreements from existing underwriters, Source has been able to broaden declarations and definitions as well as improved mapping to the engines allow them to quote for more non-standard property risks.

Brian Coulton, the Source’s national sales manager, said: “We are finding that more and more people are getting caught in the non-standard definition as insurers continue to refine their rating factors, with non-standard no longer restricted to thatched roofs or exotic construction, we are simply responding to this to ensure that we can quote for as many clients as possible.”

This is the latest in a series of developments planned for this year that the Source claims should see its footprint extend further into the non-standard area which is becoming increasingly important to its brokers and their clients.
