But the brokerage did not always go under the name Paisley Partners. Its name is the result of the integration of the brokerages’ Partners Indemnity Insurance Brokers and Paisley Manor Insurance Brokers in November 2021. The two brokerages have collaborated over the years as fellow broker partners with Navacord, so the integration felt like the next logical step for both.

“We have always approached our business with a client-first approach; growing and adapting to meet the emerging needs of the communities we serve,” said former Paisley Manor Insurance president and current chairman at Paisley Partners Michael Paisley in a previous statement. “By coming together with Partners Indemnity, we are able to build upon this strong foundation to create a new legacy together.”

“This move solidifies a strong future for our combined team and for our clients,” added former Partners Indemnity president and CEO and now current Paisley Partners principal broker Barry Downs. “Paisley Partners provides a total package of trusted advice, exceptional professional service, and the expertise to design comprehensive solutions for the complex issues facing our clients today, tomorrow, always.”

While the brokerage came together just late last year, Paisley Partners did not waste time in setting its sights on higher goals – being named a top brokerage by IBC this year. In January – just two months after the brand consolidation – Paisley Partners acquired the Toronto-based broker Wiseblott Insurance.
