ANV to acquire Car Care Plan

Insurance intermediary platform ANV Group Holdings has agreed to acquire UK-based vehicle warranty MGA Car Care Plan from AmTrust Financial Services.

Founded in 1976, Car Care Plan provides vehicle warranties, asset protection products and after-sales administration to more than 30 automakers and over 2,500 dealers. It serves customers across approximately 100 countries.

The transaction also includes Car Care Plan’s overseas subsidiaries in the US, Europe, Turkey and China, as well as Dent Wizard Ventures, a UK provider of mobile bodywork, paint and alloy-wheel repair services.

Car Care Plan CEO Ben Russell and the existing leadership team will remain in place, and the business will continue operating under its current brand. AmTrust will also remain its long-term underwriting partner.

ANV emerged from the 2025 spinout of several AmTrust MGA and fee businesses in partnership with Blackstone Credit & Insurance. AmTrust retained a significant equity interest in the resulting company, while former AmTrust president Adam Karkowsky became ANV’s chairman and CEO.

The acquisition is expected to close around the end of September 2026. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Bottom Line: It’s all in the family—AmTrust is selling Car Care Plan to a company in which it retains a significant stake, then staying on as the MGA’s underwriting partner.
