US-based financial services company WSFS Financial has sold BMT Insurance Advisors (BMTIA) to Patriot Growth Insurance Services (Patriot) for an undisclosed sum.
The deal will allow BMTIA employees to continue to work in their current positions.
BMTIA is an insurance brokerage and risk management consulting company that provides custom-made insurance schemes for consumers and businesses across the US.
The divestment is not expected to materially impact WSFS’ future earnings.
WSFS Financial executive vice-president and chief financial officer Dominic C Canuso said: “We evaluated many factors when making this decision, with a priority of maintaining high-quality service and products for our Clients, and continued opportunities for our BMTIA Associates.
“Our focus is on the long-term organic growth opportunities for the Bank, the Wealth and Trust business, and our other strategic fee-based businesses.
