The insurance brokerage market is maintaining its momentum and showing potential for mergers and acquisitions (M&A) despite various global economic challenges. In 2021, the market was valued at approximately $US128 billion, with projections for growth to $US278 billion by 2030. Jonny Allison, Head of European FIG at Macquarie Capital, asserts the indispensable nature of insurance, which sustains corporate operations and is one of the last expenses to be cut.

The market remains appealing for investors and trade buyers due to its fragmentation, which presents numerous consolidation opportunities. Even with a 27% decrease in broker transaction numbers in 2022, reflecting overall sectoral trends, insurance brokerage stands out for its transaction volumes within the insurance industry.

Commercial lines brokers display robust dynamics, including high client retention and recurring revenue with minimal capital expenditures. Unlike insurers, brokers do not bear balance sheet risks, enhancing their stability even during financial downturns. Moreover, there is an expectation of increased corporate client investment in insurance coverage, with Lloyd’s of London anticipating a 14.3% rise in premium growth in 2023. These strong market fundamentals attract private equity investors, trade buyers, and insurance platforms. In 2022, private equity firms dominated the M&A landscape in insurance brokerage, representing two-thirds of the transactions. The sector’s high EBITDA margins and stable cash flows offer private equity firms substantial leverage and return potential.

Significant transactions in 2022 included ECI Partners selling Clear Group to Goldman Sachs Asset Management, and Brown & Brown’s acquisition of UK-based Global Risk Partners. U.S. buyers are particularly active, leveraging the strength of the U.S. dollar to make acquisitions in the UK and Europe. Macquarie Capital emphasizes the importance of understanding the dynamics of the M&A market for insurance brokerage to identify the most viable acquirers. Collaboration among its international teams and the ability to offer debt financing are key components of Macquarie’s strategy. The recent easing of travel restrictions enhances the firm’s ability to build relationships and execute deals across borders.

Macquarie’s involvement in cross-continental deals, like AUB Group’s acquisition of Tysers, reflects the firm’s global reach and expertise. The firm foresees a continuation, if not an acceleration, of deal activity in the European market as consolidation trends from the U.S. and UK spread. Macquarie’s goal remains to provide strategic advice and, when suitable, leverage its balance sheet for optimal client outcomes.
