We are delighted to announce the appointment of Hamilton Matthews as Chair of Insurance Insider.

Hamilton brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in building market intelligence and data information businesses, through both executive and non-executive roles.

He was the Chief Executive Officer of Acuris, a specialist business intelligence group known for products such as Mergermarket, Debtwire, and Inframation, which cater to the global financial and corporate sectors.

He successfully led the business from its early days under Pearson’s ownership to its meteoric organic and acquisitive growth under BC Partners, culminating in a sale to ION Group, for a 5x return for its private equity owners.

Hamilton served on the board of the Financial Times and is currently the Chair of Aosphere, a legal analysis business, and on the board of WGSN, a trend forecasting and analytics company.

It is a privilege to be working with Hamilton again, having spent many years together at Acuris. He is perfectly placed to support Insurance Insider on our exciting growth journey as we expand our products, capabilities and offering.”
