Islands Insurance Group (IIG), comprising Hepburns Insurance and Islands Insurance, is proud to announce that it has been awarded Chartered Insurance Broker status by the Chartered Insurance Institute (CII) – becoming the only Chartered broker operating across Jersey, Guernsey and Alderney.
This prestigious designation is recognised as the gold standard in insurance professionalism. It reflects IIG’s commitment to technical excellence, clear communication, ethical conduct, and responsible business practices. The Chartered status places IIG among a select group of brokers in the UK and confirms the Group’s focus on delivering high standards of service, integrity and trust.
Tim Brangwyn, Group Managing Director said:
“We are in the business of selling promises – and those promises are built on trust,”
“To earn that trust, we invest in technical expertise, clear client communication, and the tools that allow us to keep our promises. Chartered status is recognition of the professionalism and integrity we aim to bring to every client relationship, and I’m incredibly proud of the team that made this possible.”
The CII considers a range of factors when awarding Chartered status, including the number of professionally qualified staff, the company’s commitment to continuous learning and development, and adherence to the CII’s Code of Ethics.
Adam Harper, Executive Director, Strategy, Advocacy & Professional Standards at the CII Group said:
“Congratulations to everyone at The Islands Insurance Group Ltd on achieving Chartered Insurance Broker status. Attaining Chartered status is a recognition the team should be very proud of,”
“By holding corporate Chartered status, The Islands Insurance Group are making a public declaration to professional standards, and a commitment to the on-going development of their staff, a customer-first approach and supporting wider societal initiatives.”
This recognition follows IIG’s recent accreditations from Investors in People and Investors in Customers, rounding out a year of industry acknowledgement for the Group’s ongoing focus on culture, service and capability.
“This is not just a milestone for the business – it’s a reflection of the people behind it,” added Tim. “Every single member of the team has contributed to this achievement, and we’ll continue pushing forward to build a business we can all be proud of.”
