Aviso Broking, which was formed earlier this year, has acquired Macquarie Insurance Brokers in eastern Sydney as it actively pursues expansion plans.

Macquarie Insurance Brokers is a family-run firm that has serviced the local area and beyond since 1997. Keith Robertson and his sons Martin and Benji will continue in the business, which will operate under the Aviso Broking name.

“Macquarie is a great family owned and operated business that is committed to the customer service experience,” Aviso Broking CEO Jeff Moule said today. “I have known Keith personally for over 10 years and I am looking forward to welcoming his team as we grow and strengthen our Sydney business.”

Aviso Broking, backed by Envest, is responsible for placing more than $190 million in gross written premium for over 30,000 clients.

Earlier this month it announced it had acquired AIS Insurance, a Sunshine Coast brokerage based in Tewantin as it continues its expansion.

Aviso Broking, part of Aviso Group, was formed in April through the merger of Allsafe, Aviso EIA, Aviso All Points, Wymark and Sutton Insurance Brokers.

The business includes more than 110 staff, with offices in Brisbane, Sydney, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Byron Bay, Kempsey, Port Macquarie, Hunter Valley, Inverell and Glen Innes.
