Arnold Fisher Insurance Services Ltd

Arnold Fisher Insurance Services Limited was established in 1971 and following
its acquisition in 2004 it became part of the Group that includes James Hallam
Limited (Est 1982, a Top 50 Independent UK Broker) and Touchstone Underwriting. 

A working knowledge of the travel industry was developed in the late 1980`s when
Arnold Fisher acquired the general insurances of Club 18-30 which was followed
by other high profile tour operators including Unijet, Cresta International
Leisure Group and Hayes and Jarvis. 

In 1993 they negotiated full underwriting authority on behalf of insurers to
provide Tour Operators Liability Insurance (in response to the Package Travel
and Package Holiday Regulations 1992) from which the Travel Agents office
Combined Policy was developed to include such covers as specific extensions for
Directors and Officers Insurance, Crisis Management and PR Insurance. The Office
policy was also recently enhanced to allow up to 25% of turnover to be derived
from operating activities. 

As well as working closely with ABTA, we also have close links with all the main
travel industry associations. 

We are now responsible for providing insurance to over 3000 UK travel companies.
