The Horton team is very thorough in the diligence process identifying issues and potential areas for improvement. One of the benefits we have found working with Horton is that the diligence team is the same team servicing the target company after close. It’s been a seamless transition!

We Do It All

We Take Risks So You Don’t Have To

Getting the right insurance for your business can transform the way you operate from day to day. When you properly mitigate risks, you can focus on what matters most – growing your business.

Whether you seek assistance with property insurance, worker’s compensation, risk management or navigating claims, Horton has all of your business needs covered.

All Business Insurance Products

Horton helped us with diligence when we brought on a number of our portfolio companies on both Employee Benefits and Property & Casualty.

Since then, they’ve assisted with safety, wellness and also conducted a very successful P&C carrier consolidation program for all our lines of coverage, including executive risk. This resulted in over 20% savings on our annual premiums, while providing more coverage that was consistent across our entire portfolio. Horton has been a trusted advisor, and I would recommend the Horton team to anyone in Private Equity/Family Office Investing.

Navigate Compliance Challenges with Mergers and Acquisitions Insurance Experts at your side.

Horton has led our insurance and benefits due diligence on numerous acquisitions. The M&A team has done an outstanding job of summarizing coverage and identifying any potential risks or gaps.

They have also managed the insurance needs of our portfolio companies after acquisition and have done an outstanding job. We brought them in to replace an existing broker on one of our portfolio companies and were able to save 30% on our premiums while maintaining the same level of coverage. Our entire team has been very satisfied with the service we get from the Horton team.
