BORLAND INSURANCE
Borland Insurance Joining AssuredPartners UK&I
Hear from John Silcock – Chief Executive, on the alignment of Borland Insurance joining AssuredPartners
“There was a considerable amount of interest from the market in acquiring our business, however, it quickly became clear that the AssuredPartners proposition offered something completely different.
The cultural synergies between ourselves and AssuredPartners were obvious from the outset of our conversations. This gave me the comfort that post-acquisition our clients would remain paramount to our service offering, whilst at the same time allowing the Borland team to be an integral part of the exciting project of growing the AssuredPartners’ operation across the UK retail space.”
John Silcock CEO, Borland Insurance
AssuredPartners is one of the fastest-growing, independent insurance agencies in the United States. Founded in 2011, AssuredPartners has acquired in excess of 325 agencies, with offices in 34 states and circa 7,000 employees. It is now the 11th largest broker in the United States and this latest acquisition adds to its expanding footprint in the UK retail brokerage space following acquisitions in Birmingham and Chester. AssuredPartners also recently announced the opening of an office in Belgium.
David Heathfield, CEO of AssuredPartners in the UK, said: “We look forward to working with John and his team and feel confident that the values upon which Borland has been built will prove to be a great fit with how we operate here at AssuredPartners. We are very excited about establishing a presence in Scotland and look forward to using the market knowledge that John has gained over the years as a platform from which to identify further acquisition opportunities across the UK in the near future.”
