The firm’s chief executive says the deal will help its broker expand into international markets 

Insurtech Stubben Edge has today (19 October 2022) teamed up with London market focused international specialist consultancy Helodrium to enhance its offering to brokers. 

The deal will see Helodrium provide regulatory and compliance expertise as well as its international outlook and specialism in governance to Stubben Edge.

Chris Kenning, Stubben Edge Group chief executive, added: “We are so pleased to have Helodrium join Stubben Edge Group.

“Their unmatched knowledge and expertise of setting up Lloyd’s brokers backed by their strong London market heritage will enable us to help our brokers expand into Lloyd’s as well as into international markets, supported by our offices in South Africa, India and Guernsey and to continue to provide our brokers and Appointed Representative network with the highest quality services and support in starting, running and growing their businesses.”

Growth

Helodrium offers bespoke services including business plans, finances and relationships to assist those setting up a new business to trade in the London market and international insurance market.

Establishing a subsidiary in London can be particularly challenging when handled from outside the UK.

Neville Hunt, Helodrium’s chief executive, said: “I am delighted that Helodrium will be joining forces with Stubben Edge. Two innovative, client-focused firms combining to provide ideas and solutions to the financial services world.

“Together we will grow beyond the current range of territories in which we have clients as the combined resources and experience of the firms will naturally also extend our reach.

“We believe that client experience will be enhanced with the greater range of capabilities and solutions that we can jointly bring to the table.”
