Capulus is a specialist motor fleet underwriter operating in the transportation arena for six years writing over £200 million in premiums. We are supported by the long-term agreement of A+ rated capacity partners, Alwyn Insurance Company Limited, part of the Arch Capital Group.

Capulus started writing business in May 2018 focusing on hauliers, couriers, and self-drive hire operators. In January 2023, following the addition to the business of a team with decades of experience underwriting passenger transport in the fleet market, Capulus began writing coach, minibus, and bus policies.

Starting with seven people, the business now employs over forty staff between its underwriting and claims offices in South Wales and Essex and underwriters will be found in London every week meeting our clients and brokers. All underwriters are senior level and empowered to make decisions as required to ensure a swift response to brokers and customers, whether that be about a quote for new business, renewal of existing, or terms for any unique opportunity to the customer which may be outside the conditions of the policy.

In the early days of Capulus, claims were outsourced to a Third-Party Administrator but were brought ‘in house’ in 2021 to our own UK based office and handlers. The move proved to be positive for both the business and our clients alike as we can exercise direct control, aggressively mitigating the cost of third-party claims spend, whilst ensuring a speedy repair process for our customers vehicles, getting them back on the road as soon as possible.

Capulus remains an independent underwriter and is not tied by ownership or any other means to an insurance broker, allowing us trade with whoever we or the customer chooses. This independence provides a strong foundation to write business at the appropriate terms and ensure a result which means we are here for many years to come and provide stability for our customers.

The operational side of Capulus has been designed to ensure processes are simple and transparent to the customer. Whether that be accepting claims notifications by an online portal, telephone call, or email, to operating a pro-rata adjustment basis to make sure you only pay for the cover you need. Adjustments are charged based on the vehicles you or your insurance broker add to the Motor Insurance Database via our own portal, and the premium charge is calculated to the second!

The business has an excellent data warehouse and an enviable management information suite. We are keen to meet with our customers and their broker, both from the underwriting and claims side of the business, giving access to our data which often provides additional insight into the risk for the customer and helps identify areas which can be improved.

Our appetite to write business is strongest where operators are 5-50 vehicles being used for contract hire, private hire, and tour work. If you fit this profile, ask your insurance broker for a Capulus quotation ahead of your next renewal and see how our proposition compares!

andy burnham tfgm £15.6 billion (1) The funding announced by Chancellor Rachel Reeves today (4 June) has been allocated to several combined mayoral authorities to use on rail, tram, road and bus infrastructure. Transport for Greater Manchester revealed today that part of the £2.5 billion it will receive will go towards making the Bee Network fully battery-electric by 2030. An as-yet undecided portion of that will support a planned investment in 1,000 new zero-emission buses over that period, the mayoral authority said. That is part of plans to build the UK's "first fully integrated, zero-emission public transport system", with trams and trains also set to benefit. Liverpool City Region's already announced BRT system is among the projects to which its £1.6 billion will be allocated. Under those plans - due for realisation by 2028 - a high-speed network will be served by articulated buses which are modelled on the 'Glider' in Belfast. It is due to link Liverpool city centre with John Lennon Airport, and Liverpool FC and Everton FC's respective stadia along three routes. Although the model of bus has not been confirmed, a Van Hool Exqui.City on loan from Belfast was last year used as a demonstrator. That 18m vehicle can accommodate around 30% more passengers than a typical bus and has three sets of double doors. The funding will also go towards buses elsewhere in the city as the region heads towards franchising services by 2027. Liverpool Mayor Steve Rotheram with a 'Glider' which was on loan from Belfast last year - an example of the sort of bus which could serve the new BRT Bus services in the East Midlands region will be boosted by the funding, thanks to the £2 billion handed to it today by the government. Some of that allocation will be used for a rapid transit network on the Trent Arc between Nottingham and Derby. Between the two cities, the Freeport, Infinity Park Investment Zone and Ratcliffe-on-Soar will also benefit from the improved bus services. South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority's newly announced commitment towards bus franchising has been boosted by £350 million in funding as part of that region's allocation. The funding for West Yorkshire will help build new bus stations in Bradford and Wakefield. Likewise, the Tees Valley Mayoral Authority will put its sum towards a new £15 million bus station in Middlesbrough. Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander says: "Today marks a watershed moment on our journey to improving transport across the North and Midlands – opening up access to jobs, growing the economy and driving up quality of life as we deliver our Plan for Change. "For too long, people in the North and Midlands have been locked out of the investment they deserve. With £15.6bn of government investment, we’re giving local leaders the means to drive cities, towns and communities forward, investing in Britain’s renewal so you and your family are better off."
