Brady Insurance completes buy back

Brady Insurance Completes Buy-Back from Coverys Ireland  Holdings Ltd.  

Brady Insurance, with offices in Carrick on Shannon and Dublin, are excited to announce the buy-back of its' majority ownership from Coverys Ireland  Holdings Ltd. It marks a significant milestone for the company, wherein the original shareholders now take the company forward with a renewed commitment to further growth and strong customer-focused service.

 In August 2021, Joseph G. Brady Insurance announced that they had sold a majority share of their business to Coverys European Holdings (CEH), an agency platform who also held other European holdings. Following that consolidation the company rebranded and expanded with the acquisition of Loftus Insurance in 2022.

Brady Insurance shareholders, Jane Brady and Colm McGrath, have taken the opportunity to reclaim full ownership , a move that is audacious in the current Irish Insurance Market.  Brady Insurance will continue to work with Coverys International Insurance Company, providing insurance capacity for specialty liability products in the Irish market.

 “We are proud to go back to our roots ,”

said Jane Brady, Managing Director. 

“This buy-back signifies our strength as a privately owned Irish Broker and our commitment to serving our clients with the same dedication and ethos that have defined us since our founding in 1959. Our robust team of over 40 professionals is eager to embrace the opportunities ahead.”
