“Expanding our regional footprint across the UK has yielded significant success for us,” said Alistair Hardie, Chief Executive of Jensten. “Our recent investment in East Anglia through the acquisition of One Broker and Scrutton Bland Insurance Brokers is testament to our strategic focus on establishing regional centres of excellence. Simultaneously, we’re keen to enhance our specialist capabilities, crafting propositions tailored to specific client and industry sectors.”
