NFP snaps up UK-based brokerage to expand presence

Property and casualty broker  NFP has snapped up a large Staffordshire-based provider of complex commercial and personal insurance solutions to expand in the UK.

NFP has acquired Mason James Insurance Services (doing business as Bentley Insurance Services).

The deal adds complex commercial and personal insurance expertise to NFP’s UK operations.

Mike Rostron, managing director at Bentley, will join NFP’s commercial insurance leadership team in the UK and continue to drive the company's growth.

“Bentley Insurance Services has a longstanding presence in Staffordshire, a great reputation, strong leadership and well-earned trust in the region, making them a perfect partner for NFP,” said John Paul Allcock, UK and Ireland managing director at NFP. “We are proud to welcome Bentley, a broker that embodies our ethos, to our growing global group.”

He added: “The last two years have been particularly challenging for organisations and consumers alike, and their insurance needs have evolved. This partnership allows us to offer services to businesses in the Midlands that more effectively meet the challenges our clients face today.”

Rostron commented: “This incredible opportunity allows us to offer our clients access to NFP’s broad network of integrated insurance, benefits, wealth management and retirement solutions.”
