As part of the deal, the business will become part of SRG’s UK retail division.

‘Same values’

Lee Anderson, group deputy chief executive at SRG, said: “We are thrilled to welcome Champion Insurance Group to SRG. It was immediately clear that we share the same values and ambitions, particularly around growth, client service and building a business that is both relevant and resilient.

”Champion’s regional strength and advisory approach are a perfect complement to our UK retail platform and we look forward to what we can achieve together.”

Dan Maloney, founder and managing director at Champion Insurance Group, added: “This is a really exciting step forward for our business. From our first conversations, it was obvious that SRG understood who we are and where we’re going. We share the same belief in combining expertise, integrity and genuine care for clients.

”With SRG’s support and wider capabilities, we’re well placed to accelerate our growth and continue delivering for our clients across the north west and beyond.”
