BMS Group Limited (“BMS”), the independent specialist insurance and reinsurance broker, today announces that its Australian wholesale broking operation has rebranded to Lions Gate Placement Services (“Lions Gate”), to mirror BMS Group’s wholesale underwriting agency Lions Gate Underwriting.
Lions Gate is led by Brett Field and will maintain its distinct character as a wholesale broking operation, operationally and structurally separate from the niche specialist broker BMS Australia, led by Andrew Godden. Lions Gate’s core business will continue to be Lloyd’s-supported liability and property placements, particularly in the construction, sport and hospitality areas as well as hard to place business.
Brett Field, managing director, Lions Gate, said:
“We are very pleased to announce the rebrand to Lions Gate, which will retain focus on our independent retail broking and underwriting agency partners. Our wholesale operation in Australia has earned a terrific reputation, combining local service, product innovation and expertise with direct access to Lloyd’s and the London market. We have ambitious growth plans in the sector and look forward to growing our partnerships in the region.”
