MGA Insurance Group (MGA), headquartered in Adelaide and one of Australia’s top insurance brokerages with offices and local portfolio managers in every mainland state and territory and Cambodia, has solidified its Sydney presence by opening a new office.

The new office is at 111 Pacific Highway, North Sydney, and brings together under one roof MGA’s Sydney, Manly, and Artarmon offices. It has 15 personnel, four portfolio managers, and nearly $58 million in premiums and writes 17% of the group’s national placements.

MGA group executive chairman John George OAM told over 80 guests during the new office’s grand opening: “Timing is everything… the grand opening night of live music, cocktail food, and refreshments was capped with fireworks as the Harbour below lit up for the annual Vivid Sydney festival of light, music, and ideas.”
