Fazan & Co — illustrated wordmark with creative industry characters

Insuring the sustainability of creative industries

Risk advisory, insurance introductions, and claims advocacy for the people behind live events, public art, immersive theatre, and everything in between.

30 minutes. No forms. No pitch.

Who We Work With

Four worlds. Total focus.

We work exclusively with creative organisations. That focus shapes everything — how we listen, what we look for, and what we recommend.

Liminal

Immersive & Experiential

Work that invents its own category — and needs insurance that can keep up.

Live

Theatre, Music & Events

If there’s an audience in the room, the stakes are different.

Fine

Art, Collections & Heritage

Irreplaceable things in vulnerable places. The insurance has to hold.

Fringe

Festivals & Emerging Work

Big ambitions, tight margins, and risk so familiar it becomes invisible.

We also work with producers, promoters, venues, and suppliers across all four sectors. Don’t see your world here? Let’s talk →

Risk isn’t a problem to solve. It is the engine of creativity. Our task is not avoidance, but shaping risk so you can create with confidence.

Every ambitious project carries risk. Our job is to help you take those risks with clarity, structure, and the right support behind you. That’s what alignment and service looks like — building something that genuinely serves this industry and its values.

How We Work

Three starting points. Straight terms.

On every engagement, we work for you — not for the insurer, not for the broker. We don’t earn bonuses from underwriters for placing business with them, and we have no divided loyalties. No incentive to push you toward cover you don’t need. Think of us as your in-house risk team: we learn your work, shape your thinking, then help you navigate the market from your side of the table.

Risk Advisory

We learn your work before we talk about cover. What you’re building, where the pressure sits, what would actually hurt if something went wrong. The goal is clarity — so when you talk to a broker, you know what questions to ask and why.

Insurance Introductions

We know the specialist brokers in this market — who they are, what they’re good at, and which ones are worth your time. We introduce you to the right one for your situation, and we’re here if you need us during the process.

Claims Advocacy

How a loss is presented shapes how it’s settled. We’ve managed hundreds of complex claims across six continents. When something goes wrong, you want someone who’s seen it before and won’t panic.

“It’s by far the best process for insurance that I’ve gone through. I feel like we really know what we have, why and how it all works.”

About

Two forms of experience.
A single point of view.

I never really left the arts. I stepped sideways, learned another language, and came back.

I started in sculpture, then spent years doing the other work that makes creative projects happen: installations for Artangel, building management at Siobhan Davies Dance, technical production in immersive theatre at the Old Vic Tunnels. Running cables. Managing builds. Solving problems in spaces that were never designed for any of it.

Then there was a small fire in a venue. Not a disaster — but a sliding doors moment. Enough to reveal how thin the line was between atmosphere and liability. Between magic and exposure. That led me into insurance — and eventually back to the arts, as a translator between two industries that don’t speak each other’s language.

One conversation. That’s where it starts.

No pitch. No pressure. Most people call before they know exactly what they need — that’s how the best conversations start.
