Insurance news brand sold

There has been disruption in the insurance media space this week with the sale of industry news magazine and website Insurance Post to a new owner for an undisclosed sum.

 

Along with other brands such as Risk.net, the insurance publication is part of Incisive Media’s Insight division, which has been sold to another business-to-business publisher, French company Infopro Digital.

 

The deal, which will be completed on April 13, is unlikely to affect Incisive Media’s Business division, which includes titles like Investment Week, Professional Adviser and Professional Pension.
