Insurance Connections, a new venture in the commercial insurance brokerage space, has announced its launch.
This new firm was established by Nathan Walton (pictured above), a seasoned professional in the insurance broking industry, with the backing of The Broker Investment Group.
Walton, known for his extensive network within the insurance sector, has put together a team of professionals specializing in commercial insurance broking. Leveraging his long-established relationships with insurers, Walton has already achieved significant client acquisitions and growth in gross written premium (GWP) since the company's inception.
Walton's career in insurance broking dates to 2003 when he founded JSW Insurance. Over a decade, he grew the business significantly before selling it to The County Group in 2013, subsequently joining their board.
During his tenure with The County Group, he played a pivotal role in expanding its GWP to £100 million. Following this, Walton shifted to consulting, working on projects for various high-profile clients.
“After some highly enjoyable insurance consultancy projects for several high-profile clients, as a relatively young man, I still had a burning desire inside to set up and run another insurance brokerage,” Walton said. “Using some highly respected industry professionals as a sounding board, Peter Cullum and Dave Clapp as two examples, I was encouraged to return to what I love doing best. The Broker Investment Group have provided financial support in the brokerage of which I am very grateful for their backing.”
