WHO WE ARE
About Binocle
Independent forensic accountants helping the insurance industry manage complex claims worldwide.
OUR STORY
Built on Independence
Binocle was founded in 2003 with a simple but powerful purpose: provide Insurers and Reinsurers dealing with complex claims technically excellent and truly independent forensic accounting advice, delivered by people who understood their business.
From a small team in London, we have grown into an international practice with offices and correspondents across six continents. Throughout this growth, we have maintained our founding principles — working exclusively for Insurers and Reinsurers, investing in specialist expertise and never allowing commercial pressures to compromise the quality or objectivity of our work.
Today, we are recognised as one of the leading forensic accounting firms serving the insurance market.
OUR STORY
What Drives Us
We believe that when a major insured event occurs, the claims process should produce a fair settlement. Our mission is to bring financial clarity to complex losses, enabling Insurers to fulfil their contractual obligations fairly while protecting their policyholders’ interests and their own financial position.
We work only for Insurers and Reinsurers — never for policyholders or brokers.
We maintain complete independence from all other parties in the claims process.
We invest in specialist expertise rather than chasing every type of work.
OUR VALUES
The Principles That Guide Us
Independence
We maintain no affiliations with brokers, insureds, or law firms. Our only obligation is to the facts.

We tell it as we see it. Our findings are objective, transparent and defensible under scrutiny.
