Groupassur is proud to announce the acquisition of Eagle Underwriting (“Eagle”), an independent general agent specializing in “ ‘Things That Move™’™ ” insurance. Eagle offers superior products, cutting-edge underwriting expertise and first-rate claims service to brokers and their customers in Canada and the United States.
Founded in 1996, Eagle Underwriting is recognized for its expertise in the transportation sector. Through this acquisition, Groupassur will broaden its product range, enrich its offering and acquire the know-how needed to insure customers in complex sectors such as marine, cargo and, in the near future, other specialized fields.
The acquisition is effective as of October 1, 2021. Eagle Underwriting will continue to operate under its current structure and name. The acquisition will also help support Groupassur’s international growth objectives, as Eagle already underwrites cargo insurance policies in the United States.
