John Mina – Risk Strategies CEO said: “Companies that are part of a private equity or venture capital investment portfolio, or simply focused on growing through acquisition, face complicated and often high stakes risks.

Risk Strategies’ practice is said to have expanded significantly in 2019 following the acquisition of Krauter & Company, a private equity specialist. The company said that the acquisition of Securitas Insurance Partners will consolidate on this momentum and increase operational depth besides adding expertise in aiding non-private equity entities with their growth by covering their acquisition risk and insurance needs.
