RogersGray provides risk solutions to commercial clients across a broad range of industries, with particular strengths in Real Estate and Construction & Utilities, and brings to BRP Group an attractive coastal personal lines footprint.
“RogersGray is one of the top independent firms in the Northeast, featuring a history of growth and an exceptional group of talent led by an accomplished management team buying into BRP Group’s long-term vision. RogersGray will significantly bolster our geographic footprint and product offerings in New England and the broader Northeast region, and we are particularly excited about adding Monomoy to our MGA of the Future platform,” said Trevor Baldwin, Chief Executive Officer of BRP Group. “David, Michael and their incredibly talented team have prioritized client service above all else, while also fostering a dynamic colleague-centric culture that is clearly aligned with what we are building at BRP Group, and we are thrilled to welcome the RogersGray team to the BRP family.”
