WF Risk Group, based in Belfast and the parent company of Willis Insurance & Risk Management, has announced the appointment of two directors for Kennett Insurance Brokers Ireland DAC, located at the notable address of Merrion Square South in Dublin.
As part of the development, the firm has strategically positioned Bruce Low (pictured above, left) as managing director and Wayne Kwan as sales director for its operations in Ireland.
With a history of conducting business in Ireland spanning over four and a half decades, WF Risk Group has responded to the post-Brexit landscape by establishing a regulated entity in Dublin. This move, the company explained, ensures it can continue its services seamlessly across both Northern and Southern Ireland.
Richard Willis, managing director of WF Risk Group, expressed enthusiasm about the company’s growth within the country.
“The group has worked for decades in the UK and Ireland markets, and we are delighted to be expanding our presence within the island of Ireland,” Willis said. “These recent appointments at Kennett Ireland give us an expanded and unique platform to trade with firms cross-border and the wider European markets.”
WF Risk Group employs over 140 staff across multiple locations in the UK and Ireland, including Belfast, London, Hull, Leeds, and Dublin.
