Alliant Insurance Services has announced the formation of a new brokerage
service vertical, Alliant Mergers & Acquisitions. Falling under the Alliant
Specialty retail umbrella, Alliant Mergers & Acquisitions will provide
expertise to private equity firms and alternative asset investors to ensure
transactions are executed properly and with the right risk management
techniques.

“In the last decade, there has been considerable investment by private equity
firms in specialty industries, especially within aviation, energy, healthcare,
and life sciences,” said Peter Arkley, President, Alliant Specialty. “By
combining our talented M&A team with our presence as the largest specialty
broker, Alliant truly sets the bar at a level higher than our competition can
jump.”

initiatives.

“I am excited to be leading the charge for Alliant,” said Jonathan Gilbert,
Senior Vice President. “Our team understands and is committed to the M&A
community, and Alliant provides an excellent place for us to continue to
thrive under this formalized department and provide exceptional service to our
clients.”
