Brown & Brown integrates former Risk Strategies leaders

Brown & Brown said Thursday it named several former Risk Strategies leaders, including CEO John Mina, to senior positions in its retail division.

The announcement follows the completion in August of Brown & Brown’s $9.83 billion acquisition of Risk Strategies’ parent, Accession Risk Management Group.

Mr. Mina, now senior vice president of Brown & Brown’s retail sector, John Greenbaum, national practice leader for employee benefits at Risk Strategies, John Scroope, national director of retail operations, and John Vaglica, chief mergers and acquisitions officer, were named retail senior leaders.

In addition, Ed Flanagan, Steve Giannone, Neil Krauter Sr., Robert Rosenzweig and Patrick Roth were named retail vice presidents.

“Each of these individuals will continue to lead their current businesses while taking on expanded responsibilities that will help drive strategic initiatives across the segment,” Brown & Brown said in a statement.

In addition, Mark Manzi was named North American retail brokerage leader. He held a similar title at Risk Strategies.

Last month Brown & Brown announced its integration plans for Accession’s wholesale unit, One80.
