Howden-backed Aston Lark, an independent insurance broker, completed the acquisition of UKGlobal, a healthcare and commercial and private insurance broking services provider. Financial terms were not disclosed. “I’ve known Nic, Matt, Phil and of course Philip Hodson for many years. They are first class insurance brokers and have a true client-first ethos. They have built an outstanding business and we now have an opportunity to partner together to more than double the business again over the coming few years. I’m delighted that they have chosen to partner with Aston Lark and I’m so excited about what we will achieve together over the coming years. Welcome aboard to the whole UKGlobal team,” Peter Blanc, Aston Lark CEO.
