History

Pre-2025 legacy

Prior to the formation of Arrowhead Intermediaries, Brown & Brown operated several specialty insurance entities, mainly including Bridge Specialty Group, Arrowhead Programs, and One80 Intermediaries. Each division specialized in different areas of insurance distribution:Bridge Specialty Group – Focused on wholesale brokerage, providing market access and placement services for retail agents and brokers seeking coverage for complex or specialty risks. Arrowhead Programs – Operated as a program administrator through a network of managing general agents and managing general underwriters, delivering niche and specialty insurance programs across multiple industries. One80 Intermediaries – Specialized in specialty risk solutions and managing general agency services, offering binding authority and program management for property and casualty, accident and health, affinity, administrative services, and warranty markets.
In June 2025, Brown & Brown announced the acquisition of RSC Topco Inc., the parent company of Accession Risk Management Group and One80 Intermediaries, for approximately US $9.8 billion. Following the acquisition, the three subsidiaries—Bridge Specialty Group, Arrowhead Programs, and One80 Intermediaries—were consolidated to form a single integrated platform under the Arrowhead Intermediaries name. This unification brought together Brown & Brown’s wholesale, program administration, and specialty operations under a shared structure and brand.
