“By combining Aon Affinity's extensive knowledge of insurance solutions and affinity program management capabilities with National Flood Services' industry-leading flood risk assessment technology for commercial and residential markets, Aon Affinity is expected to continue to expand its flood solutions to a larger client base within this growing sector."

Michael O'Connor, CEO of Aon Risk Solutions, the firm's global risk management business, said: "This agreement brings together two premier organisations and reinforces Aon's strong commitment to the affinity marketplace. Combining the best talent between our two firms enhances our ability to serve clients."

Keith Brown, president and CEO of National Flood Services, added: "We are proud to join Aon and Aon Affinity, which has shown a commitment to investing in market-leading companies like National Flood Services, who offer innovative solutions and exceptional technology. This is great news for our clients due to Aon's resources and industry knowledge."
