Visiting HM Treasury

An Insurtech UK delegation went to Westminster

In spring 2025 an Insurtech UK delegation of insurtech CEOs visited HM Treasury to discuss how insurtech is driving innovation and growth in financial services.

We discussed topics critical to Insurtech UK’s member firms including:

  • access to finance
  • regulation and authorisations
  • how to support insurtech firms to scale overseas

Plus more details from our Roadmap for UK Insurtech Growth setting out the key policies needed to sustain and strengthen the UK's position as a global insurtech leader.

Improving the authorisation process

Insurtech UK’s Government Affairs group welcomed representatives from the Prudential Regulatory Authority (PRA) and Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to discuss all things related to authorisations, supervision and regulation.

The regulators updated Insurtech UK members on the aims and features of the new mobilisation regime introduced at the start of 2025, with discussion of how this aims to make it easier to become authorised as a new insurance company in the UK.

We also heard about the latest developments in Solvency II/UK, including increasing the thresholds at which the regime applies in order to give smaller insurance firms more headroom to grow.
