About Us
Financial and Credit Insurance Services (FinCred IS) is one of the UK’s leading independent specialist trade credit insurance brokers. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to provide bespoke insurance solutions, operating as an extension of your business, providing the partnership you need to grow.
We don’t simply take on new clients, we build new lasting relationships.
FinCred IS is recognised by UK insurers as a specialist broker in trade credit risks. As an insurance intermediary we uphold our duty of care, skill and diligence when acting for our clients. FinCred IS is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
Founded in 1993 by Mark and Ruth Letheren, Financial and Credit Insurance Services established itself as a market leader thanks to Mark’s 16 years experience at Clarkson Group, Gibbs Hartley Cooper (now Marsh) and LPH Group.
Since the business’ inception in Mark’s living room, FinCred IS now works with companies in over 13 countries worldwide. From home, to global. As a measure of our dedication to strong, enduring partnerships, FinCred IS’ first two clients still work with us today.
In 2016, Hannah Lyon-Wall joined the business, heading up the credit insurance team. Hannah, a Chartered Insurer with over a decade of experience in the industry, has since been nominated for Insurance Woman of the Year at the 2020 Women in Insurance Awards for her work as Director at FinCred IS.
In 2020, we are launching FinCred Commercial Finance Limited, specialising in brokering funding arrangements for businesses.
