The Basingstoke branch of Equity Insurance Group will be handling a larger portfolio of customers after the company completed two further book acquisitions, transferring both personal lines and commercial accounts into its growing branch network.

Business previously handled by Hampshire broker, Direct Insurance Services, will transfer to Equity’s Basingstoke branch in Potters Walk.

Mike Hutton, Equity’s acquisitions director said:

“We see real benefit from infilling business acquired from brokers close to our branch locations and are actively seeking similar opportunities throughout our regional footprint.”
