Griffiths & Armour and Miller join global broker network

Assurex Global has added UK brokers Griffiths & Armour and Miller Insurance Services to its international partnership ranks.

The global network of independent insurance brokers has also added Associated Insurance Consultants (AIC) of the United Arab Emirates.

The new additions replace HSBC Insurance Brokers - which was acquired by Marsh earlier this year - within the network

The three join 103 other independent brokers around the globe that have been selected by Assurex Global after an extensive due diligence process.

“Individuals seeing the Assurex Global logo can be confident that they’re working with the very best professionals in the industry,” said Assurex Global president and chief executive Jim Hackbarth.

“In our rigorous evaluation process, Miller, Griffiths & Armour and AIC clearly met our extensive list of high standards. Their impressive qualifications make them welcome additions to the Assurex Global partnership.”

Matt Donnelly, managing director of Griffiths & Armour Insurance Brokers, said, “We are delighted to have been accepted into the Assurex Global fold. Whilst for many years we have acted for clients with international reach, our partnership in the formal Assurex Global infrastructure will only help deliver further value to our mutual clients. It is good news for the practice and will inevitably support our continued expansion.”

John Eltham, head of North American Broker Business at Miller and Assurex Global representative, said: “The Assurex network is made up of first-class, like-minded independent brokers. Our partnership in Assurex Global will provide Miller retail clients with increased options in terms of how best to service their overseas operations.

"The timing of our joining is particularly good as it coincides with a major strengthening of our already significant retail capabilities. Our independence and specialist approach are key to Miller’s continuing success and existing relationships.”
