AUB Targets Expansion with New Agency and Growth in UK

AUB Group is set to expand its Australian agencies and UK retail broking businesses following a significant rise in earnings for the 2023-24 fiscal year. The company recently launched Rubix Underwriting, its third commercial strata agency, after securing a binder agreement with Lloyd’s. CEO and MD Michael Emmett highlighted plans for further growth in the UK, building on the successful performance of its Tysers business.

AUB Group reported a 32.5% increase in underlying net profit after tax, reaching $171 million, and a 19.8% rise in revenue to $1.33 billion. For the current financial year, the company targets an underlying net profit after tax of $190-$200 million. The Australian agencies division achieved over $1 billion in premiums, with a 57.9% increase in underlying profit before tax to $55.4 million.

In the UK, AUB's Tysers division saw a 14.1% rise in normalized earnings before interest and taxes to $99.4 million. AUB has enhanced its UK retail strategy by acquiring a 40% stake in Momentum Broker Solutions and an 80% stake in Movo Group. These moves, combined with Tysers' operations, provide AUB with a substantial presence in the UK retail market, positioning the company for significant growth opportunities.
