As many insurance brokerages consolidate through private equity and public company acquisitions, our independence allows Holmes Murphy to focus more directly on clients and employees. This approach creates opportunities for employee ownership while reducing pressure tied to quarterly earnings or shareholder expectations. As our own Kris Kemmis said, “What’s important to the client and important to the employee is that we can invest in the company without worrying about stock price. We focus on client experience, putting the right talent around our clients and growing the right way.” That stability is a key driver for attracting top talent.
