Acquisitions

About Towergate

Within the Insurance industry, Towergate has an unrivalled reputation for, and track record of, making successful acquisitions. Since its launch in 1997, we have completed a total of 175 acquisitions of regional commercial, retail and specialist insurance intermediaries.

Completing acquisitions can be a time consuming and expensive process, from sourcing appropriate funding, through legal and financial due diligence, right through to integrating the new business after completion. So it is important to get experienced advice, and find the right partners.

It is also about more than just the numbers – strategic fit, understanding owners’ personal plans & needs, quality of people, and chemistry are all key ingredients.

Our experience has enabled us to develop and refine a robust process for acquiring and successfully integrating businesses. We have a knowledgeable and seasoned team of acquisition specialists who you can talk with informally, backed up by significant funding.

Thinking about your future?

If you own your own broking or underwriting business (or have a major stake in one), and the nature of your personal or financial involvement in the business is something you are considering at the moment - or is something you may be considering over the next year or two - then we encourage you to get in touch with Towergate.

We recognise the individualism and inherent value of every business we invest in, and therefore our sale and purchase agreements are tailored to suit.

This could include the business remaining in situ and trading with the existing management team and staff, but could also involve:

• 100% purchase with immediate, early or medium term exit arrangements
• purchase of general insurance portfolios
• start-up funding and facilities for individuals and teams wanting to take forward business ideas
