Within six months of launch, Addept Insurance Services is covering almost 69,000 Police Federation members with its officers’ legal protection policy. This means it has exceeded a 50% penetration rate of the police officers in England and Wales who subscribe to Police Federation Group Insurance schemes.

The policy provides legal expenses insurance relating to off-duty and non-duty matters for servicing officers and their families and is offered as an add-on in the benefits available to federation members.

Richard Finan, managing director of Addept Insurance, said: "This is not just an important business milestone for us to achieve in just six months, it also demonstrates that our dedicated solution is providing Federation members with clear and valuable benefits and establishes our product as a benchmark solution for this market."

Irwell Insurance Company, which has a rating of B++ (Good) from AM Best, provides the capacity for the product.
