Jonathan Travers

As account director at Stanhope Cooper, insurance broker for HNWs based in Petersfield, Hampshire, most of Jonathan Travers’ clients are London-based, with property around the UK and overseas.

‘There are a lot of oil and gas commodities brokers,' he says. 'We've been very fortunate to be supported by some very senior commodity brokers, then hedge fund and private equity people, law firm partners, family offices and entrepreneurs.

‘We insure art collections, jewellery, musical instruments, classic cars and supercars. The big growth recently has been in renovation insurance, I’d say almost 50 per cent of our business now comes in that form, with the amount of work that’s going on.’
