Howden Group has acquired Major Insurance Services, a general insurance broker based in Bunbury, Western Australia. According to the firm, this acquisition, combined with the client base of Unicorn Risk Solutions — recently rebranded as Howden — strengthens the company’s presence in regional Western Australia. Established in 2015, Major Insurance has developed a diverse portfolio, serving private SMEs and mid-corporate businesses. Howden states that Major Insurance will become a key component of its Western Australian broking operations, addressing the comprehensive needs of corporate and SME clients in the region. Matt Bacon, CEO of Howden Pacific, notes: "We are honoured that Major has chosen to partner with Howden and are very proud to be part of the next chapter in their journey. “We see a lot of future positive collaboration between Howden and Major, providing clients easy access to insurance solutions.” Jerom Major, director of Major Insurance Services, says: “Major Insurance Services will continue to operate from our local Bunbury office where service levels will remain the same, but with additional support and benefits offered by Howden.”
