Queensland broker expands through acquisition

Corporate insurance broker Michael Parker has acquired Toowoomba-based Holland Insurance Brokers.

Mr Parker says the move provides “the platform to deliver a level of technical insurance and risk management advice to local companies previously only available from Brisbane or interstate”.

“Our international connections allow us to reach all global markets and we will bring a new level of service to the fastest-growing part of Queensland.”

Corporate advisory work will be delivered through a new division, Queenscorp Insurance Services.

Holland founder Bruce Holland will continue as Principal in the Toowoomba office, managing the portfolio there.

The Queensland company has no connection with Victoria-based Holland Insurance Brokers, which was acquired by Midland Insurance Brokers in 2011.
