Specialist Risk Group buys commercial broker Hamilton Leigh
London-based insurance intermediary Specialist Risk Group (SRG) has acquired commercial and motor trade broker Hamilton Leigh as it looks to grow its specialist capabilities.
The Hamilton Leigh team will join SRG’s retail division, Specialist Risk Insurance Solutions (SRIS), under the continued leadership of managing director Lee Cohen and operations director Jill Hamilton.
In January 2022, SRG also acquired the London-based Special Risks team from Bridge Insurance.
Lee Anderson (pictured), group deputy CEO at SRG, said: “Hamilton Leigh is another fantastic addition to SRIS, providing new areas of deep specialism, supported by a team of genuine experts in the Motor Trade and Technology sectors.”
Warren Downey, group CEO at SRG, added: “We are thrilled to welcome Lee, Jill and the Hamilton Leigh team to SRG. When we created SRG, we said that we would follow specialism wherever it took us and Hamilton Leigh epitomises the type of business that will thrive within our Group. They are clearly specialists, ambitious and this will be a fantastic cultural fit for both teams.”
Cohen commented: “Despite approaches from many other potential buyers, we felt great synergy with SRG in regards to where we wanted to take the business. SRG has a clear vision for the future, which entails being the home for specialist businesses. Being part of the group allows us to offer a much broader range of services that brings tangible benefits to our clients. It was also evident that SRG offered the right cultural fit for our team by providing them with an environment where they can develop and maximise their full potential.”
