An
insurance manager is a professional provider of services toinsurance firms , which may include company secretarial, bookkeeping, claims processing and underwriting and, where duly licensed, insurance consulting and actuarial services. The CBB would, in principle, regard it as acceptable for theinsurance manager to provide these services to other clients, whether or not insurance clients. It would not regard it as acceptable for the firm to combine these activities with that ofinsurance broker , although it is possible for a group to include bothinsurance broker andinsurance manager activities, for instance, by aninsurance broker establishing a subsidiary to act as aninsurance manager (or vice versa).Amended: July 2007
