Insurance intermediary Specialist Risk Group (SRG), backed by investors Warburg Pincus and Temasek, has acquired R3, a specialist insurance broker.  

This deal represents the 11th acquisition for SRG in 2024 following the integration of other companies such as Stonehatch, Capulus and Anthony James Insurance Brokers. 

R3 provides insurance solutions in various sectors including UK tourism, charities and overseas aid, and UK military and police.  

It will see R3 become a part of SRG’s retail business, Specialist Risk Insurance Solutions (SRIS), thereby enhancing SRG’s offerings in complex risk areas. 

R3 has devised customised insurance solutions that address clients’ specific needs.  

SRG group deputy CEO Lee Anderson said: “R3’s unique sector experience represents the very essence of SRG’s approach to building specialisms. Their team brings a wealth of industry-specific knowledge, and we look forward to working together to expand our retail offering for UK clients. This partnership strengthens our retail capability and reinforces our commitment to providing clients with the specialist solutions they need to tackle complex and diverse risks.”
