Howden has expanded its presence across Asia with the acquisition of Storfield Insurance Consultants, an insurance broker based in Hong Kong.
Founded in 1985, Storfield serves SMEs and HNW individuals, offering them comprehensive asset protection services.
The company’s expertise covers a broad spectrum of insurance areas including bloodstock, fine art, and luxury vehicle and yacht insurance, in addition to customised insurance solutions for SMEs.
Storfield founder Tony Lau said: “After almost 40 years of independent growth, Howden is the natural choice for the next chapter of Storfield’s growth.
“We are confident that the combination of our local expertise and Howden’s global capabilities will enable us to better serve our clients.”
With the integration of Storfield, Howden’s Hong Kong operation’s workforce size stands at around 200, contributing to a regional presence of 17 offices and 1,100 employees across Asia.
