THG Scoops Employee Benefits Firm

The Hilb Group (THG) has announced the acquisition of North Carolina-based Employee Benefit Advisors of the Carolinas (EBA).

EBA, based in Charlotte, NC, is a full-service employee benefits agency for small to mid-market businesses in the Southeast. The company has expertise in group health and dental, life and disability, and other employer-sponsored benefits. EBA will join THG’s Southeast operations. Suzy Johnson, EBA principal, will work with THG’s team to grow the region’s benefits division.

“EBA takes pride in the mission and culture that we have established as a woman-owned agency,” Johnson said. “In choosing a partner, THG stood out in their commitment to support our growth and the alignment with our values, particularly ‘do the right thing.’ The additional resources and solutions that THG has to offer will also greatly benefit our team members and clients as we move to the next chapter in EBA’s history.”

“EBA’s experience and market relationships will continue to fuel the growth of our existing benefits division in the Southeast region,” said THG CEO Ricky Spiro. “We look forward to their added expertise and welcome EBA’s associates to our team.”
