This alliance merges EIRS’s international reinsurance strength with BrokerPlus’s deep local market expertise, enabling both firms to better serve Turkish corporates expanding across Africa and the Middle East.
Expanding the EIRS Global Network
BrokerPlus becomes the second member of the EIRS Network, following a successful partnership with Epicure Insurance Brokers in Nigeria. The EIRS Network is on track to onboard eight additional specialist insurance brokers across Southern Europe, the Middle East, and the UK by the end of 2026, creating a globally integrated platform of insurance experts.
"This partnership represents more than market entry, it's about creating synergies between our global reinsurance capabilities in London and Dubai, and BrokerPlus' client relationships and trust."
— Abhishek Jain, CEO of EIRS
"Turkish companies are increasingly active across Africa, where EIRS has established a strong presence, making this collaboration full of sense."
A Complementary Partnership
EIRS contributes:
- Expertise in Aviation, Construction, Financial Lines/Trade Credit, and Logistics
- Direct access to global reinsurance markets via London and Dubai
- Strong operational footprint across Africa to support Turkish corporate expansion
BrokerPlus brings:
- Strong growth trajectory and tailored risk transfer solutions
- Specialization in Financial risks (e.g., Trade Credit, Fidelity), general aviation and employee benefits solutions
- Deep access to Turkish corporates operating locally and internationally
Built on Leadership and Market Heritage
The partnership is anchored by proven leadership. BrokerPlus is led by Murat Altın, former Managing Director at JLT Group, alongside senior insurance executives Ms. Hülya Lafçi Güner and Ms. Simla Özdoğan, who have established a strong reputation in the Turkish insurance landscape.
Nolwenn ALLANO, Chief Commercial Officer of EIRS, adds unique insight, having successfully led the launch of Gras Savoye in Türkiye in 2001 (later acquired by Willis Towers Watson in 2016). His experience brings valuable depth to this partnership’s market approach.
Right Time, Right Opportunity
- Turkish corporates are accelerating infrastructure investments across Africa in energy, transportation, and construction
- Türkiye’s aviation sector is expanding rapidly, driving demand for sophisticated risk and insurance solutions
"We see tremendous potential in combining our local market knowledge with EIRS's global capabilities. This partnership enables us to offer our clients unprecedented access to international reinsurance markets while maintaining the personalized service they expect."
