Commercial broker deal adds more than £5m GWP
Broker Network-owned Finch has bought Southampton-based commercial broker Taylor Beaumont for an undisclosed sum.
The transaction is Finch’s third acquisition since Broker Network bought the company last October.
Finch is a Broker Network partner, which means it is used as an acquisition vehicle for smaller brokers in its region. Broker Network bought its second partner – Paisley-based Boyd Insurance – earlier this week.
New acquisition Taylor Beaumont, established in 1989, specialises in construction and general commercial business. It places more than £5m gross written premium (GWP) annually. It is run by managing director Denis Taylor.
Finch now manages more than £27m GWP, of which 85% is commercial.
Finch managing director Vincent Gardener said: “I have always admired Denis’s strong client relationship ethos which has been at the heart of this business from day one.
“I’m looking forward to working with Denis and the Taylor Beaumont team to ensure we continue to provide their customers with the personal service they have come to expect.”
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
