Chase Templeton seals biggest ever acquisition

Private medical insurance specialist Chase Templeton has sealed its biggest deal under its ongoing buy and build strategy with the acquisition of Rochdale-based Atlas Consulting Group.

The purchase brings in £13.8m annual premium income, driven mainly by larger SME and corporate clients. In addition, whilst co- founders and directors Jon Tuer and Liz Magnall are leaving to focus on their other business interests outside of insurance, all the remaining Atlas staff have joined Chase Templeton.

“We were also greatly reassured by Chase Templeton’s proven track record in successfully integrating acquired businesses.”

Warren Dickson, chief executive officer, said: “Not only is this the biggest deal we have concluded, strategically it is one of the most important.

“Another key benefit is that thanks to the exceptional calibre of the Atlas staff who are now joining us, we are gaining further depth and breadth of expertise.”
