The Corporate team at FSP led by Corporate Partner Philip Stephenson have advised M.S. Macbeth Limited (“Macbeth”) on the acquisition of Surrey-based insurance broker, Insurance Services (Surrey) Limited (“ISS”). This is Macbeth’s third acquisition.
The acquisition further consolidates Macbeth’s status as a leading regional broker, taking the Group’s gross written premium income from £41m to £45m. This acquisition will also see Macbeth’s team grow to 73 members, including the former owners of ISS, Peter Sambrook, John Goodson and Rob Tipping and the wider ISS team.
On working with FSP, Paul Macbeth, CEO, commented:
“It was a pleasure working with the FSP team again on our third acquisition and some four years after our second. In the same way that ISS and its people are a good fit with Macbeth’s business and values, so are FSP and its people. Thank you to Philip and his team for being very supportive in their approach to the transaction and thorough, yet commercial, with their advice.”
The team at FSP was led by Philip Stephenson (Partner, Corporate) with assistance from Olivia Vines (Solicitor, Corporate), Richard Higgs (Partner, Real Estate) and Victoria Ounsworth (Solicitor, Employment).
