A broker that puts
clients first. Always.

For over 35 years, Forum Insurance has built a reputation on one thing: genuine expertise combined with genuine care. We're not a call centre. We're not a comparison site. We're a team of specialist brokers who take the time to understand your world.

Our Story

Over three decades
of looking after our clients.

Forum Insurance was founded in 1990 by Barry Mamtora — a specialist broker with a clear vision: build a brokerage where clients are advised rather than sold to, where claims are fought rather than managed, and where relationships last decades, not just to the next renewal.

In 1998 we moved into Sai Maa House on Kenton Road in Harrow — our home ever since. That stability is deliberate. Our clients know where to find us. Our team knows our clients. Long-term relationships are how we deliver the service we promise.

Today Forum Insurance is run by Amish Mamtora, Managing Director and the second generation of the family at the helm. The team has grown to 15 specialist brokers covering every sector from petrol stations and forecourts to dental practices, construction and high-net-worth private clients.

A 94% client retention rate doesn't happen by accident. It happens because we answer the phone when clients call, fight their corner when a claim arises, and treat their insurance as a genuine business issue — not a commodity.

Our History

35 years in
four milestones.

2012

Today

15 Specialists · 3,000+ Clients

A team of 15 specialist brokers protecting over 3,000 clients across 450+ industries — from sole traders to multi-site businesses and high-net-worth private clients.

What We Stand For

Three things that define
everything we do

🎯

Expert

We know our sectors deeply — petrol stations, construction, dental practices, landlords, high-net-worth individuals. That depth of knowledge gets clients better cover, better terms, and better outcomes when it matters most. We don't dabble. We specialise.

🤝

Personal

Every client has a dedicated broker — one person who knows their policy, understands their business, and picks up the phone. Not a call queue. Not a different person every time. A real relationship, built over years, that makes a material difference at claim time.

Premium

We deliver a service worth paying for. That means access to specialist insurers you can't reach on comparison sites, policy wordings that actually cover your risks, and a broker who's genuinely in your corner — not just selling you the cheapest policy that almost fits.

Our People

15 specialists.
One team.

Every broker at Forum Insurance is a specialist in their sector — not a generalist who covers everything and excels at nothing.

Client Reviews

What our clients
say about us

★★★★★
"Forum Insurance has handled our commercial portfolio for over 12 years. They know our business inside out and we've never had a claim they couldn't resolve. Wouldn't consider going anywhere else."
Property Developer · London
★★★★★
"As a petrol station operator I've tried other brokers. Nobody else comes close to Forum's knowledge of forecourt risks. They placed cover other brokers said wasn't possible, at a premium I was happy with."
Forecourt Operator · Midlands
★★★★★
"When we had a major fire at one of our rental properties, Forum were on the phone within the hour. They managed the entire claim and we received a settlement that fully covered our losses. Exceptional service."
