Brit has completed the acquisition of Creechurch's property portfolio.
A team of eight underwriters, led by UK commercial property
underwriter Jon Bartlett, have joined Brit and are expected
to generate £20m of gross premium income in 2004.
Brit chief executive Dane Douetil said: "This acquisition is an important step in our strategy, particularly for the UK Commercial market, and we are pleased to be able to provide continuity of coverage with the benefit of
Brit's strong security."
