The IMC Newbury Difference 

IMC Newbury was established specifically to provide Trade Credit Insurance advice and real choice in a market dominated by large corporate brokers with inadequate resources allocated to manage this highly specialised product and by insurer-owned trade credit insurance brokers. IMC Newbury is truly independent specialist Trade Credit Insurance Broker and committed to impartial excellence. We have offices in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.
 
Our goal is to be more relevant to our clients, more responsive to their needs, more dynamic in our service delivery, more passionate about the business we do and more able to apply resources when and where needed. In everything we do, we strive to be better than the rest.
