ANV Group has acquired Associated Specialty Insurance Agency (ASIA), a US-based wholesale broker specialising in workers’ compensation, as it continues to build out its presence in the segment.
The deal follows ANV’s recent acquisition of Specialty Comp Insurance Solutions and builds a broader platform alongside its existing Risico business, combining wholesale distribution, program underwriting and risk management across high-hazard industries.
“ASIA’s 30-year track record in workers’ compensation, deep broker relationships, and expertise in artisan contractor risks make it an ideal addition to our growing platform,” said ANV CEO Adam Karkowsky.

ANV Group has agreed to acquire US-based Open Lending in a $372 million all-cash transaction, as it continues to expand its Specialty underwriting platform.
The deal will see ANV add Open Lending’s insurance-backed credit and risk analytics capabilities, strengthening its US footprint and supporting growth in lending solutions for near-prime borrowers.

In Captive International, Xceedance’s Darren King highlights how captive owners must rethink risk management, shifting beyond insurance purchasing to focus on protecting assets, resilience and long‑term business value.
He explains that fragmented data, reliance on spreadsheets and limited fit‑for‑purpose systems are constraining decision‑making, while better integration of exposure, claims and operational data could unlock clearer insight and stronger risk outcomes.
“Captive owners must balance protection, cost, operational realities and long‑term business objectives,” King said, noting that success ultimately depends on turning data into actionable insight.
