Brokers: Respond now for exclusive free access to high value insight into eTrading

The Insurance Times Five Star eTrading survey is the most comprehensive independent annual survey of its kind and aims to investigate a broker's experience of eTrading with their chosen extranet platforms or software houses' system.

The key question is: are eTrading platforms or software houses tailored towards your brokerage needs? The Star rating and feedback you provide is directly used each year by insurers and software houses to improve the services and products they provide to brokers. It also gives brokers the opportunity to have exclusive free access to an executive summary of the insight that is otherwise only available to subscribers paying more than £600 a year.
