Hub International Limited (TSX:HBG) has acquired the assets of Impact Insurance Services and the consolidation of those operations with Hub International Midwest’s financial institutions business.
As a direct result of this transaction, Kirby Jordan and Scott Eckerty, principals of Impact Insurance, will join Hub International Midwest (HUB Midwest) as managers of the expanded business unit.
HUB Midwest’s Financial Services Division will be a diversified practice that will incorporate new niche products and services into Hub’s former financial institution practice. The Impact acquisition provides both management expertise and expanded transaction volume to the financial institutions business.
Eckerty and Jordan formed Impact Insurance Services to provide specialty products and expertise to niche markets. Impact successfully integrates web-based technology to create operational efficiencies in markets experiencing margin compression.
Prior to forming Impact Insurance, Jordan worked in the financial institutions business of HUB Midwest, among other firms. Jordan’s previous roles included relationship management, product development, division management, consulting services, and chief executive officer.
Eckerty’s earlier positions included Vice President of Consumer Loan Services at a specialty insurance agency, with responsibility for creditor placed insurance and an assortment of elite products. In his past roles he has overseen product line profitability, business development, agent relations, underwriting, new product development and compliance.
Hub International Limited is a leading North American insurance brokerage that provides a broad array of property and casualty, life and health, employee benefits, investment and risk management products and services through offices located in the United States and Canada.
