Mike Edgeley, group CEO of Clear

Clear Group grew its Ebitda by 33.4% to £19m, with revenue jumping to £74.7m in the year ended 31 October 2023.

Revenue was up from £56.7m the year before.

It struck 10 deals in the year and has a growing MGA portfolio from acquiring three businesses: Profile Underwriting, One Commercial Specialty and a 50% shareholding in Thomond Underwriting based in Ireland.
