Our Journey
Be part of our journey
Our Journey Started in 2007
Questor Insurance was conceived by founder Andrew Lawrence after he had left a previous insurance business specialising in Travel Insurance. "As a founder and shareholder I had developed a strong desire to create and run a business where technology and customer service would be at the core and with the very highest standards of ethics and integrity."
Andrew started Questor Insurance in April 2007, obtained regulatory permissions, built the first application and agreed insurance facilities with White Horse Insurance DAC in four months. Questor sold its first policy on the 4th August 2007 and has sold at least one policy every day since then even during the COVID crisis of 2020/2021 that is 6,476 days of continuous trading.
"Along the way I have met some fabulous customers and we continue to grow our policy count in partnership with our sister company Riverside Malta."
