The Federal Reserve Bank of Boston has highlighted New England’s robust economic health, noting that the region’s unemployment rate dropped below 3% in October 2023, the lowest since 2000.
Acrisure said the region’s economy is dynamic in nature, influenced by various micro and macroeconomic factors.
Acrisure co-founder, chairman and CEO Greg Williams said: “We are taking the bold step of unifying the business under the Acrisure brand with the New England market being one of the final steps in our branding journey.”
Plunkett added: “With my extensive experience living and working in New England, I have a deep understanding of the unique dynamics and opportunities in the region. I am excited to get the ball rolling under the Acrisure brand to best support the broad needs of our clients.”
The announcement of the New England Region follows close on the heels of Acrisure’s launch of its South-east Region last month, which includes Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
