A broker group has expanded with the launch of a risk management business.

East Anglia-based Alan Boswell Group has brought in three new faces and will offer a range of services to help clients comply with the law and avoid disruption to their business.

Two engineering surveyors, Gary Murphy and Terry Hammond, and a risk management administrator, Shannon Waters, join risk management advisers John Neil and Gavin Dearsley in the new branch.

Mr Neil said: 'Routine engineering inspections are vital to minimising the risks our clients may face.

'While these are a legal requirement, they also keep the working environment safe and reduce the chances of disruption, thereby reducing their chances of an insurance claim.

'Our services are already proving popular and we are currently in the process of recruiting a third risk management adviser to meet with demand.'
