Based on our pricing dataset, Prime Meridian has the highest mean effective rate of any insurer we have tracked — approximately 0.64% of vehicle trade value per month for the profiles sampled. This is nearly double the rate of the most competitive options in our data.
High rates in niche insurers typically reflect either a higher-risk client base (drivers declined by mainstream insurers) or a more specialised cover product. If you have been quoted by Prime Meridian through a broker, comparing that quote against our panel is strongly recommended before committing.
