Marsh McLennan Agency Expands Hawaii Footprint with Three New Brokerages

Marsh McLennan Agency (MMA) has acquired three Hawaii-based insurance brokerages—Atlas Insurance Agency, Pyramid Insurance Centre, and IC International—from Tradewind Group. This strategic acquisition strengthens MMA's presence in the Hawaiian insurance market, as the combined firms offer specialized insurance solutions across key industries such as municipal, transportation, and hospitality sectors. MMA will retain the existing teams and office locations to ensure continuity and stability for clients throughout the transition. The acquisition underscores MMA's commitment to Hawaii's diverse and resilient economy by leveraging its resources alongside the local market expertise of the acquired brokerages. MMA aims to enhance its service offerings across the islands, providing expanded insurance products and solutions to meet evolving client needs. This transaction also presents growth opportunities for employees within the merged entities. Leadership from the acquired firms emphasized the importance of maintaining their community connections while gaining access to MMA's broader network and resources. The partnership is positioned to enhance support for Hawaii's businesses and families by combining local insights with global capabilities. The continued operation of the brokerages from their current locations supports sustained client relationships and operational stability. For Tradewind Group, the divestiture allows a strategic refocus on local talent development, business ventures, and real estate projects in Hawaii. The investment group highlighted cultural fit and community commitment as critical factors in selecting MMA as the new owner. This ensures that the acquired brokerages will continue to positively impact Hawaii's insurance market while aligning with regional values and economic priorities.
