Our verdict

Capita Financial Services suits households in Barbados that want auto, home, health, travel and life cover arranged through a broker on monthly payments. Its distinct trait is the Claims Centre, which takes claims by phone, email and online claim forms via Claims Centre, while the insurance itself sits with underwriters named at quote.
