Thomas Carroll Group has formed a partnership with Monmouthshire Building Society to offer a local and independent personal insurance broking service to all members.

With nearly 50 years’ experience placing personal and business insurances, Thomas Carroll Group is one of the UK’s leading independent providers of insurance broking, wealth management and health & safety consultancy and was recently named UK Broker of the Year at the British Insurance Awards.

This partnership followed a strategic review of operations by the Newport-based building society. A decision was made to build on the society’s strong track record and focus on growing its core business, while still being able to offer services such as home insurance that add value for its members.

Leading the team at Thomas Carroll Private Clients, which provides a full spectrum of personal insurance services including home, motor and travel, is managing director Alison Davies.

Alison said: “For many years we have enjoyed a close working relationship with Monmouthshire Building Society and are privileged to be acting for their members.

"From Thomas Carroll’s Newport office in Clytha Park, our local and dedicated team of chartered insurance brokers are committed to working with the building society and our proximity enables us to work side by side with all branches.

"We look forward to assisting with service development plans and providing additional value for new and existing customers. Our partnership will ensure the same high levels of ongoing support and expert advice that the client base have come to expect.”

Will Carroll, chief executive officer at Monmouthshire Building Society, said: “Thomas Carroll’s reputation is well known to us, we recognise and trust their status as a leading Welsh broker. I am confident that this relationship will benefit our members, by providing independent advice and competitive home protection cover.”

John Moore, chairman of Thomas Carroll Group, said: “We service a loyal and growing client base across Newport and the surrounding areas and are delighted to work in partnership with such a well-respected organisation.”
