FORT WORTH, Texas, Oct. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- MGM Benefits Group (MGM), an employee benefits firm in Richardson, Texas, serving as an agency for employers and as a managing general agency for brokers, has joined Higginbotham, one of the largest independent insurance, financial and HR services firms in the U.S. The deal gives MGM the ability to offer additional coverage lines and account services to its customers, primarily schools and universities, including commercial property and liability insurance and risk management support.

We're honored to have MGM join our pursuit in serving those institutions that serve our community."

MGM President Glenn Turchi added, "We continually look for ways to enhance the lives of our broker partners, group customers and their employees. With Higginbotham, we found a long-term strategic partner with the same passion and focus on providing top notch employee benefit products and delivering value with the additional coverages and services we now have access to."
