Pii is a real estate insurance specialist, established in 2012 and comprises a team who are able to advise on all aspects of property risk, including property owners, terrorism, construction risks, legal indemnity policies, and warranty and indemnity insurance as well as having a key interest in environmental risk insurance.

Brett Sainty, CEO of Pii, said: “Stackhouse Poland is a respected contributor to the UK insurance market, and combining our propositions is a natural fit. The acquisition is an important part of our growth strategy, allowing us to compete at the top of the market on a greater scale.”

This included conducting a targeted and competitive process and assisting the company in developing robust earnings and balance sheet modelling, as well as providing detailed advice on a wide range of commercial and technical points in the negotiations.
