Specialty Program Group Consolidates Leading Wholesale Brands Under SPG Banner

Five leading brands. One powerful division.

CHICAGO, Sept. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Specialty Program Group LLC (SPG), a leading operator of specialty insurance distribution, underwriting, and consulting businesses, is consolidating its wholesale businesses under a single division: SPG Wholesale. This strategic brand consolidation reflects SPG's continued evolution as a national specialty platform – one that is focused on clarity, scale, and long-term growth for its brokers, carriers, and clients.

Monarch E&S, Beacon Hill Associates, Specialty Wholesale Insurance Solutions (SWIS), Capitol Special Risk and JDM & Associates, will now operate under the unified division – SPG Wholesale. SPG Wholesale combines trusted expertise, strong carrier partnerships, and specialty market access, now amplified by scale, shared knowledge, and seamless support.

"This move isn't about letting go of what made these companies special – it's about taking the collective expertise and relationships and putting them to work in a more unified, accessible, and collaborative way," said Chris Treanor, CEO and President of SPG.

This consolidation reflects SPG's ongoing evolution from a network of specialty brands to a fully integrated platform, simplifying how the organization shows up in the market, expands access to niche solutions, and brings brokers closer to the collective expertise of SPG.

While legacy brand names will no longer be used independently, their contributions remain a foundational part of SPG Wholesale.

"Stronger Together is who we are – that's foundational," Treanor added. "Aligned for the Future is how we move forward. We're unifying not just names, but the value, expertise, and relationships that fuel long-term success for our partners."
