Pro Global has acquired Australian audit and advisory firm GSI Professional Services as the specialist insurance services group looks to expand its presence across the Asia Pacific market.
The deal strengthens Pro Global’s international audit and advisory operations while creating a regional platform to support broader expansion across Australia and neighbouring Asian insurance markets.
GSI Professional Services provides specialist audit and advisory services to the insurance sector, with expertise spanning operational oversight, delegated authority and governance support.
Pro Global said the acquisition expands its territorial coverage for audit and advisory services into Australia at a time when insurers, MGAs and brokers are facing growing operational complexity and tighter regulatory expectations.
The company believes demand for specialist insurance expertise, scalable operational support and technology-enabled delivery models is increasing across the region as insurance businesses modernise systems and strengthen governance frameworks.
The acquisition also supports Pro Global’s ambitions to grow its MGA and insurance services operations internationally.
David Mills, who previously owned and led GSI Professional Services, will remain with the business as head of region for Australia, overseeing the expansion of Pro Global’s regional operations and client offering.
Pro said the Australian business will continue focusing on specialist audit and advisory services while gradually broadening the company’s wider regional capabilities over time.
Head of region for Australia David Mills said, “This is an exciting opportunity to build a meaningful long term presence for Pro in Australia and surrounding markets.
“The market presents strong demand for specialist expertise, particularly across audit, operational support and delegated authority oversight. By combining local knowledge with Pro’s international capabilities, we are well positioned to support clients navigating increasing complexity and change across the insurance sector.”
Pro Global head of audit and advisory services Pervin Sivanathan said, “This acquisition represents an important strategic step in the continued expansion of Pro’s international Audit & Advisory capability.
“As insurance markets become increasingly complex and interconnected, clients are looking for trusted partners who can deliver specialist expertise with consistency across territories. Establishing a presence in Australia with reach across Asian markets, strengthens our ability to support those evolving requirements whilst also creating a strong foundation for broader collaboration across Pro’s wider service offering.”
Pro Global CEO Steve Lewis said, “Australia represents an important extension to Pro’s international coverage and this acquisition gives us both immediate capability and a strong platform for future growth.
“Alongside strengthening our Audit & Advisory presence, we see significant opportunity to support the evolving needs of MGAs and Insurance Services clients across the region. As specialist insurance markets continue to modernise, clients increasingly require partners who can combine deep domain expertise with scalable operational and digital capability. This investment reflects our confidence in the market and our long term commitment to supporting clients internationally.”
