Fortis specialises in General Insurance, particularly personal needs and small commercial packages. The company has been authorized by Financial Services Authority and is regulated by them. Fortis has built strong long-term relationships with its agents, who help them in expanding their business.


In the Personal Insurance sector, Fortis has a wide range of products to offer to its customers which suit their individual needs. House Guard Extra is a household insurance policy, which offers building insurance and content insurance. House Guard Prestige focuses on features and benefits such as Identity Theft protection and Home Assistance cover.


Fortis is the third largest Private Car Insurer in the UK. The Motor Guard Policy provides full and comprehensive third party, fire and theft cover.
