Specialist Risk Group has acquired the ongoing renewal rights of Morton Insurance Brokers, which focuses on the UK private hire and taxi insurance sector. It is based in London and dates back to 1987. The move will bolster SRG’s existing specialist taxi business, Cabsurance.

Lee Anderson, deputy CEO of SRG, said: “This acquisition allows us to further expand our footprint in the UK taxi sector, building on the success of our Cabsurance offering. By bringing together the expertise of Morton and Cabsurance, we can provide even more comprehensive and tailored insurance solutions to taxi operators across the country, ensuring they have the protection and support they need."

Adrian Morton, managing director of Morton Insurance Brokers, added "This marks an important step for our clients, as we look forward to working with the Cabsurance team to develop a leading taxi proposition for fleets and drivers across the UK.”
