UKGI Compliance welcomes Insurance Development & Training

UKGI Ltd is delighted to announce that it has completed on the purchase of Insurance Development & Training's (IDT) book of regional clients, effective from the 1st July 2024.

Founded in 1999 by Elaine Helm and built on long-standing relationships with a select cohort of general insurance brokers, IDT provides compliance advisory services to 13 brokers across the UK. 

Elaine has made the decision to retire from compliance advisory work after a long-standing career having built an enviable reputation for providing both a personal and expert service. IDT's client book has transitioned to UKGI Ltd, with the team now focussed on continuing Elaine's excellent service and growing each of these relationships through the provision of UKGI's wider toolkit of consultant-led services supported by its technical helpdesk and online tools.  

This is the second asset purchase within the consultancy arm of UKGI Group in a little over 18 months and supports the Group’s strategy of continuing strong, but sustainable growth built on excellent client service. 

About UKGI Ltd

UKGI Ltd is an independent privately-owned consultancy business with 20 years’ experience providing expert compliance support and advice. UKGI Ltd was established in 2004 when regulation began to be a significant focus for general insurance brokers and built its experienced team to focus on the delivery of services helping brokers trade in this highly regulated environment.

In 2020, UKGI Ltd became the founding element of UKGI Group, which has brought together leading compliance consultancy firms; ICS and RWA Business Consultancy. Following this, in 2023, UKGI Ltd merged with RWA Compliance to create one of the largest consultancies in the sector, enabling clients to get the best of both market leaders, with access to a wider choice of support, services and expertise.
