The financial advisory role for Innovisk was handled by Ardea Partners, while Insurance Advisory Partners advised Ryan Specialty.  

Legal counsel for Abry, BHMS and Innovisk was provided by Kirkland & Ellis and Hill Dickinson. 

Ryan Specialty CEO Tim Turner said: “We have tremendous respect for Innovisk. Their outstanding management team has demonstrated a differentiated value proposition to brokers, agents and carriers, and their underwriting talent is among the best in the industry.  

“At Ryan Specialty, we see new product innovation and diversification as essential components of the value that we bring to our clients and trading partners. Innovisk clearly shares this view and has made the critical investments to be able to not only launch new products but bring those products to market quickly.” 

Innovisk CEO David Thomas said: “With the shared mission to innovate where there is need and service clients and trading partners at the highest level, the addition of our team to RSUM will be smooth and empowering for our teammates.” 

This acquisition follows Ryan Specialty’s recent purchase in September this year of Ethos Specialty Insurance’s P&C managing general underwriters.
