Bluefin Network has signed up two new members who were previously part of rival network Westinsure.

Lancashire-based Fogarty’s Insurance and Cornwall-based Reg Hambly, both general insurance brokers, will join Bluefin Network, a division of AXA-owned broker Bluefin Insurance Group.

Fogarty’s Insurance director Phil Fogarty said: “Throughout our discussions, Bluefin displayed a real desire to work in partnership with Fogarty’s.

“The bespoke proposition with exclusive facilities and schemes set them apart from other network offerings.”

Bluefin Insurance Group chief executive Mike Bruce said: “I am very pleased to welcome Fogarty’s and Reg Hambly to Bluefin Network. We have been busy making sure our network offers industry leading services to its members and as a result, we continue to grow.”
