Independent Garage Association launches RMI Insurance Services
IGA 28/08/2025
The Independent Garage Association (IGA) is delighted to announce the launch of RMI Insurance Services, a new independent insurance broker owned by the Retail Motor Industry Federation (RMI).
Created exclusively for the automotive sector, RMI Insurance Services gives businesses direct access to insurance designed around their needs, removing the reliance on third-party brokers whose priorities and expertise may not always align with those of the motor trade.
By developing this service in-house, RMI Insurance Services ensures that every policy is placed with the best interests of the automotive sector at its core. Built on years of experience in supporting businesses across the automotive industry, the service provides tailored insurance solutions designed specifically for the motor trade. Fully FCA approved and regulated, it offers businesses the assurance that their cover is backed by trusted expertise and a long-standing understanding of their needs.
Stuart James, CEO of the IGA, said, “RMI Insurance Services represents a major step forward in the support we provide to our members and the wider industry. By bringing this vital service under our umbrella, we have created a broker shaped by decades of automotive experience that’s built with the sole purpose of protecting our sector. We have secured a range of enhanced covers to be included as standard, together with rates significantly lower than insurers standard open market rates, ensuring members receive outstanding value alongside expert, independent advice.”
RMI Insurance Services is trading from the 15 September, with quotations offered for businesses across the automotive sector and exclusive terms for members.
