About Graham Linney Graham has over 20 years’ experience in the specialist travel insurance industry. Having joined Ancile in 2010, when it was formally OUL, he has been responsible for dramatically growing the business year on year. Graham has specific expertise in strategy and development and his previous roles include Columbus Insurance Group, Astrenska and Collinson Group. A number of these new positions work remotely, rather than in the company’s Essex headquarters. “The pandemic taught us how to act quickly and that we don’t need to be restricted by the location of our office when recruiting talented people” says Graham Linney. “As a result of the investment in our team and in marketing, sales have grown strongly over the last 12 months and have exceeded 2019 levels by a considerable amount”. Ancile’s flagship brand is Goodtogoinsurance.com, launched in 2010, it provides insurance for travellers who may have difficulty finding cover elsewhere, either due to their age or medical history. Policies can cover all types of medical conditions up to a very high level of severity and have no upper age limit. Goodtogoinsurance.com is a market leader in the impaired travel insurance sector, with an established presence in search, social media, national press, and magazines. In 2022, to further cement its position as the ‘go to’ provider for impaired health cover, Ancile have launched a new brand, Total Travel Protection. Total Travel Protection uses a different medical screening technology to the majority of providers in the market. This enables Ancile to provide more choice and a broader range of products to a potentially vulnerable group of travellers - people who may either risk travelling uninsured or not be able to travel at all. Total Travel Protection is the first retail product in the impaired health travel insurance market to use this screening technology, where it has the potential to provide better outcomes for some customers. In addition to selling its products direct to the public, Ancile also operates an affiliate program and is always keen to talk to all potential new partners. The wide acceptance criteria on their products means they can offer risk free sign posting solutions to other insurance providers, helping them to meet their obligations under the Equality Act 2010 as well as the FCA regulations for travellers with existing medical conditions. This enables their partners to earn a competitive commission from customers they might otherwise turn away. Established affiliate programmes, from simple tracking links, to fully branded white labels or xml integrations, are available for new partners to join or they can offer bespoke solutions to suit different business requirements. 55 www.finance-monthly.com Finance Monthly Insurance Awards 2022 United Kingdom Tel: 0330 024 9671 Email: info@ancileinsurance.com www.ancileinsurance.com
