We would like to clarify a story that ran in last week's Backchat entitled "Sudden departure". Perkins Slade was approached about a deal with Hill House Hammond over a year ago. Indeed, David Slade is keen to point out that instead of any trade sale, Perkins Slade is introducing equity share schemes that will mean the company retains it's independence in the majority ownership of staff and executives over the next few years.
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.
