Paul Huntley

Spear’s Review

Paul Huntley is a managing director at PIB Insurance Brokers and heads up the private client division.

Huntley, who joined the firm in 2021, has vast experience in providing tailored insurance solutions for HNWs. He is known for offering a highly personal service, because, as he tells Spear’s, ‘people want to deal with people’. With some client relationships spanning over 25 years, his approach is rooted in trust, continuity and ‘building a rapport’ with a client to ensure each policy remains relevant over time.

Rather than simply advising on insurance products, Huntley provides ongoing, day-to-day support and risk mitigation advice. That might mean helping a client navigate security arrangements when bringing a valuable watch to a London event, or offering broader guidance around asset protection. 

Adviser Profile

Paul Huntley is Managing Director of PIB Private Clients, part of PIB Insurance Brokers and one of the UK's leading independent insurance brokers for high-net-worth individuals and business owners. The business has built its reputation on exceptional service, in-depth market access, and longstanding relationships with specialist underwriters.

When it comes to protecting the assets and lifestyles of the ultra-wealthy, Paul has established a reputation for discretion, precision, and deep sectoral knowledge. With over 25 years of experience working with ultra-high and high-net-worth individuals and families, he has become the go-to adviser for tailored insurance strategies that extend far beyond conventional coverage.

Working with a diverse client base, ranging from family offices to celebrities to art collectors and large estates, Paul specialises in creating bespoke risk management portfolios. These typically include high-value property, luxury collections such as fine art, jewellery, classic cars and wine, international travel, marine and aviation insurance, as well as liability cover suited to the modern ultra-affluent lifestyle.

What sets Paul apart is his hands-on, concierge-style approach. He comments: "It's about discretion, confidentiality and being proactive. Clients want solutions before they know they have a problem." This ethos translates into regular risk reviews, seamless claim support, and longstanding relationships with global underwriters.

In the ever changing landscape it is very important to support clients in the risk management of their portfolio to mitigate any potential future loss this is a key part of the service offering Paul will give.
