Earlier in February 2025, Price Forbes announced the rebranding of Besso Sigorta, a subsidiary of Besso Insurance Group, as Price Forbes Türkiye.  

This follows the acquisition of Besso Insurance Group by BGC Partners in 2017 and the subsequent acquisition of BGC Partners’ insurance operations by the Ardonagh Group in 2021 for $500m (£402.79m).  

Ardonagh Specialty acts as the holding company for independent brokers, including Price Forbes.
