A good example of our expertise in assisting clients with the development and implementation of an M & A strategy has been our project for Jardine Lloyd Thomson (JLT), one of the largest international groups of risk specialists, insurance brokers and employee benefit consultants in the world, in relation to the development of its MGA/MGU insurance distribution platform, Thistle Underwriters.

In that role, we were instrumental in assisting with a disciplined examination of the available potential pool of strategic targets and with the proactive development of specific opportunities which led to the first major acquisition of Ingham Underwriting completed by JLT/Thistle.

This acquisition has been a key part of the core platform on which Thistle has built its presence in the MGA/MGU arena in the UK.

Our deep knowledge of the market and our ability to establish a fit with, and cultivate, potential candidates provided an opportunity to the client to consider a number of potential transactions leading to the delivery of an acquisition having strategic significance for JLT.
