Hub International, a global insurance broker, has acquired the assets of Insurance Management Associates (IMA).

The companies did not reveal the terms of the transaction.

IMA is a full-service commercial and personal insurance agency headquartered in Annapolis, Maryland.

Under the terms of the agreement, IMA president Randall Bieber will join Hub Mid-Atlantic and report to Norman Breitenbach, president of Hub Mid-Atlantic.

This acquisition is part of Hub International’s strategy to grow organically and “through acquisitions” to expand its geographic footprint and “strengthen industry and product expertise”.

The acquisition of IMA is Hub’s second acquisition in the US. It acquired California-based Liberty New Gate Insurance Services last month.
