Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Mergers And Acquisitions.

LONDON, June 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WTW (NASDAQ:WTW), a leading global advisory, broking and solutions company has today announced its acquisition of Redefind, an end-to-end web-based platform, designed to facilitate access to insurance products for crypto and digital assets.

This investment reflects WTW’s long-term strategy to expand into next-generation protection solutions for clients exposed to digital finance, crypto ecosystems and tokenised asset environments.

The proposition launches as a non-custodial, cost-of-recovery insurance solution, intended to support digital asset owners in the event of theft or loss. Coverage is designed to support expenses associated with forensic investigation, asset tracing, and legal recovery of stolen digital assets.

As part of the acquisition, Redefind’s founders, Richard Daws and Connor Edward joined Willis upon completion of the transaction.

The service will initially launch in the UK, with broader market and product expansion planned as capabilities continue to evolve.

Alastair Swift, head of global specialities at Willis said: “As digital assets continue to move further into the mainstream, demand for credible regulated protection solutions is increasing. Through this investment, WTW is taking a leading position to shape the future of risk transfer and protection in the digital economy.

“We are committed to supporting clients in navigating emerging financial and technology risks and to delivering trusted, regulated solutions backed by our global insurance expertise.”

Anthony Borgman, head of GB Affinity at Willis said: “We are delighted to have acquired Redefind and welcome its founders to WTW. Under Richard’s stewardship the business will continue to evolve with support from WTW’s Affinity practice and for wider distribution.

“This marks an important milestone in WTW’s broader digital strategy, providing a foundation to expand our capabilities in digital asset protection and crypto insurance.”
