Deals: Pro Global Buys GSI Professional Services

The latest acquisition news from Pro Global;

Pro Global (“Pro”), a leading trusted advisor to the specialist insurance sector, today announces the acquisition of a specialist Australian audit and advisory practice, GSI Professional Services, further strengthening the Group’s international audit and advisory capability whilst establishing a strategic platform for broader expansion across the Asia Pacific region.

The acquisition extends Pro’s territorial coverage for Audit & Advisory Services into Australia, enhancing its ability to support clients with increasingly complex oversight, governance and operational resilience requirements across multiple jurisdictions. The move also creates new opportunities to support the continued international growth of Pro’s MGA and Insurance Services propositions in the region.

The Australian market continues to see growing demand for specialist insurance expertise, operational scalability and technology enabled delivery models as carriers, MGAs and brokers respond to evolving regulatory expectations and market complexity. Pro believes the acquisition positions the Group strongly to support clients seeking both local expertise and international capability.

David Mills, who owned and led the acquired Australian practice prior to joining Pro Global, will continue to oversee the regional business as Head of Region, Australia, supporting the expansion of Pro’s operations and client offering across the territory.

David Mills, Head of Region, Australia, said: “This is an exciting opportunity to build a meaningful long term presence for Pro in Australia and surrounding markets. The market presents strong demand for specialist expertise, particularly across audit, operational support and delegated authority oversight. By combining local knowledge with Pro’s international capabilities, we are well positioned to support clients navigating increasing complexity and change across the insurance sector.”

Pervin Sivanathan, Head of Audit & Advisory Services at Pro Global, said: “This acquisition represents an important strategic step in the continued expansion of Pro’s international Audit & Advisory capability. As insurance markets become increasingly complex and interconnected, clients are looking for trusted partners who can deliver specialist expertise with consistency across territories. Establishing a presence in Australia with reach across Asian markets, strengthens our ability to support those evolving requirements whilst also creating a strong foundation for broader collaboration across Pro’s wider service offering.”

The acquisition forms part of Pro’s broader international growth strategy, which continues to focus on expanding specialist vertical capabilities whilst building scalable regional delivery platforms aligned to client demand.

Steve Lewis, Chief Executive Officer of Pro Global, said: “Australia represents an important extension to Pro’s international coverage and this acquisition gives us both immediate capability and a strong platform for future growth. Alongside strengthening our Audit & Advisory presence, we see significant opportunity to support the evolving needs of MGAs and Insurance Services clients across the region. As specialist insurance markets continue to modernise, clients increasingly require partners who can combine deep domain expertise with scalable operational and digital capability. This investment reflects our confidence in the market and our long term commitment to supporting clients internationally.”

The business will continue operating with a focus on delivering high quality specialist audit and advisory services whilst progressively expanding Pro’s wider regional capabilities over time.

Founded in 1993, Pro Global works with insurers, reinsurers, brokers, MGAs and insurtechs to simplify and transform complex insurance operations through specialist expertise, operational delivery and digital capability.
