Amwins, a global distributor of specialty insurance products and services, today announced the acquisition of National Truck Underwriting Managers, Inc. (“NTUM”), a truck insurance wholesaler offering access to primary liability, physical damage and motor truck cargo package policies.

“This partnership provides us with the opportunity to enhance and diversify our delegated underwriting capabilities and transportation offerings,” said Scott M. Purviance, CEO of Amwins. “NTUM is the gold standard in service and expertise and we are proud to welcome Jim Jr., Justin, Jim III and the rest of their team to the firm.”

NTUM will join Amwins’ Underwriting Division, complementing the services of Amwins Transportation Underwriters and working in conjunction with trucking industry specialists within the firm’s Brokerage division.
