Affinity business is now estimated to account for over 25% of the main personal lines insurance market in the UK and Junction is the fastest growing provider in the sector.

Phil Zeidler, Managing Director, Junction said: "We are expecting to double our policies under management by the end of Summer 2008 and attendance at key events like the BIBA conference plays a vital role in reinforcing our market position and growth ambitions."

"Our Direct Writer with Choice model enables our partners to leverage our in-house bespoke systems and supporting infrastructure, with the added advantage of being able to access a wide range of top UK insurers to deliver exceptional quote coverage and competitiveness. We are confident that the strength of this proposition will help us build on the success of our business to date."
