Global risk advisory, re/insurance broking firm Willis Group has completed the acquisition of Elite Risk Services Limited of Taiwan, allowing the firm to expand its operations in the country, market presence and large accounts offering.
Terms of the deal, which was first announced this June, have not been disclosed.
Under the deal, Elite operates under the Willis brand and its staff will join Willis Taiwan.
