Dickson Group buys Northern Ireland broker
Dickson Group has made its first purchase of 2025 snapping up DTM Insurance Brokers based in Holywood, Northern Ireland.

It previously bought Kerr Group in 2023 and the latest acquisition takes its count to 14 since being founded in 1992.
We intend to make further acquisitions to grow our business and to widen our presence throughout the Province. We expect to announce further acquisitions later in the year.
