NFP, an Aon company, announced on April 14 2026 that it had acquired The Hamilton Group, LLC, a multi‑disciplinary insurance broker headquartered in Cedar Knolls, New Jersey. The deal expands NFP’s footprint in the New Jersey and tri‑state market and adds a well‑established regional broker with a long‑standing reputation for risk management.
Greg Frankel and David Page, former leaders at Hamilton Group, will join NFP as senior vice presidents and report to Lauren Kim, the regional managing director of property and casualty in NFP’s Northeast Region. Kate Henry, president of NFP’s Northeast Region, said the addition would strengthen NFP’s ability to deliver complex, integrated solutions while maintaining the personal level of service the Hamilton Group is known for.
The acquisition aligns with Aon plc’s broader strategy to deepen its risk‑capital and human‑capital services in key U.S. markets. By integrating Hamilton Group’s carrier relationships and client base, NFP can leverage its global platform to cross‑sell insurance and benefits products, supporting Aon’s margin‑expansion thesis and reinforcing its competitive moat in the professional services space.
Hamilton Group was founded in 1964 and has served small and mid‑size businesses for nearly six decades. The financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed, and an integration timeline has not been announced. NFP has a history of targeted acquisitions, including the purchase of Hamilton Insurance Agency in December 2025, indicating a continued focus on expanding its middle‑market capabilities.
The acquisition positions NFP to strengthen its presence in the Northeast, broaden its product offerings, and enhance its ability to serve a growing client base in the region. No market reaction data or analyst commentary was available at the time of the announcement.
