Addept secures expanded capacity deal with Irwell Insurance

UK-based Addept Insurance Services has signed a new five-year, multi-million-pound capacity agreement with Irwell Insurance to support the continued growth of its legal expenses insurance portfolio.

The deal expands Irwell’s backing of Addept’s legal expenses insurance business, which launched in April 2025, and provides the MGA with increased capacity limits.

“Our capacity arrangements are the foundation for business growth. Therefore, we are delighted to secure this long-term deal, extending our partnership with Irwell Insurance and providing us with increased capacity limits,” said Richard Finan, managing director of Addept Insurance.

“Securing strong, quality capacity is a key strategic priority to maintain our pace of growth and we will continue to expand our capacity arrangements and partnerships to ensure we have the required resilience to sustain our ambitious business plans.”

Irwell Insurance CEO Giles Reading said the companies’ combined expertise in legal expenses insurance has created a “mutually rewarding partnership” and that Irwell is “excited to continue our support for Addept Insurance’s expanding portfolio built on innovation and delivering relevant and fair value products.”
