Financial terms of both the transactions were not disclosed.

As per terms of the agreement, BIS’ team is now a part of R-T Specialty (RT Specialty), the wholesale brokerage unit of Ryan Specialty Group (RSG).

RT Specialty chairman and CEO Tim Turner said: “I have known Debbie and Peggy for many years and have great respect for them and the firm they have built.

Boston Insurance Specialists president Debbie Murphy stated: “We are excited about joining RT Specialty.
