Having served Australian clients for over twenty years, CFC's integration with Solution Underwriting will not only enhance their service offerings but also expand their reach with the establishment of five key offices employing roughly 100 personnel throughout Australia.
Louise O’Shea, CFC Group CEO, voiced her anticipation for sustained growth and investment opportunities within the thriving Australian market. She praised the team at Solution Underwriting for their entrepreneurial spirit and innovative practices which she believes align perfectly with CFC's ethos.
Solution Underwriting, which operates out of major cities including Sydney, Brisbane, and Perth besides its Melbourne headquarters, is a specialist agency dedicated to financial lines products. With over 14 years of local experience, Solution Underwriting has carved a niche in catering to the insurance needs of SMEs via an extensive broker network.
Rhys Mills, the Managing Director of Solution Underwriting, expressed confidence that the merger with CFC will offer customers a broader array of specialized insurance solutions. He highlighted CFC's global expertise and advanced technological resources as key benefits for their client base.
Since its entrance into the Australian market, CFC has demonstrated a pattern of strategic expansion. The company has global offices including a historic presence in the United States with offices in New York, San Francisco, and Austin, as well as a hub in Brussels serving European clientele. CFC notably extended its foothold in Australia by opening a Brisbane office post-acquiring Insane Technologies in the year 2021.
The undertaken agreement between CFC and Solution Underwriting is projected to reach completion by the end of the current month, suggesting an immediate impact on both companies' operations and signaling CFC's vested interest in strengthening its international presence, starting with the Australian insurance landscape.
