Last month, World Insurance Associates acquired Two Rivers Insurance Company (TRIC) and True & Associates, in two separate deals.

Based in New Jersey, True & Associates offers commercial and personal lines products. It specialises in catering to the construction industry with ‘cost-effective’ risk management solutions for minimising the exposure of its clients.
