Bluefin Network adds 12 new brokers

Since January 2015, Bluefin Network, the insurance broker network, has gained 12 new members.

The network welcomed three former Willis Network members, including Towbay and Michael James Insurance & Property Services. Three more brokers joined having previously been part of Broker Network, which included Severn Bay Corporate Solutions and Pyramid. A further five brokers joined having been unattached to any other network, including Penshurst Insurance Services, Hedon Insurance Consultants and Michael Scott and Lau.

David Hopwood, managing director, Bluefin Network, said: “I am really pleased with our performance over the last year. Our twelve new members are a testament to the hard work of everyone connected with the Network and the value we bring to brokers.

“Our strategy has always been based around steady growth targeting specific brokers with whom we share the same strategy and vision. Irrespective of size or longevity in the market we want to work with ambitious commercial brokers who we can support in reaching the next level.”

Richard Cox, director, Towbay, added: “Bluefin Network has shown us that it understands the Broker proposition well. The expectation of many new avenues to help our business grow, excites us.

“The professionalism they have shown in providing enhanced policy wordings, access to markets and an array of additional services ranging from marketing, compliance to finance support, is very reassuring. We look forward to working with the Network closely in the years to come to our mutual benefit.”
