ANV Group Holdings has completed the acquisition of Car Care Plan (CCP) from AmTrust Financial Services, adding the UK's largest motor warranty managing general agent to its Credit and Protection platform.
CCP was founded in 1976 and serves more than 30 original equipment manufacturers, over 2,500 dealers and customers across approximately 100 countries, with capabilities spanning product design, underwriting, claims handling, administration and customer support.
The transaction also includes Dent Wizard Ventures, a UK provider of mobile bodywork, paint and alloy wheel refurbishment and repair, and CCP's overseas subsidiaries across the United States, Europe, Turkey and China.
Adam Karkowsky, ANV's chairman and CEO, described the deal as a significant scale addition.
"Car Care Plan is a fantastic platform and an important addition to ANV's Credit and Protection platform, bringing meaningful scale in the global vehicle warranty market. We're excited to welcome Ben and the team to ANV and look forward to supporting the business in its next phase of growth," Karkowsky said.
Ben Russell, CCP's CEO, said the transaction positions the business well for its next phase.
"Completing this transaction marks an important step forward for Car Care Plan. We look forward to building on the business we've established over nearly five decades and continuing to serve our OEMs, dealers, and customers around the world," Russell said.
CCP's core value to ANV lies in its OEM relationships and operational depth rather than simply its premium volume. Motor warranty for automotive OEMs and franchise dealer networks is a specialized line requiring product design expertise, multilingual claims handling and the ability to coordinate coverage across multiple jurisdictions for globally manufactured vehicles.
CCP's 50-year track record in that market, and its direct relationships with more than 30 OEMs, gives ANV immediate credibility and scale in a segment where those relationships take years to build independently.
The geographic scope of the deal is also notable. The inclusion of subsidiaries across the US, Europe, Turkey and China alongside the UK core business means ANV is acquiring a genuinely international operation rather than a UK MGA with some cross-border activity, consistent with ANV's own description of itself as a global insurance intermediary platform.
This acquisition continues a pattern of active dealmaking at ANV throughout 2026.
Insurance Business has previously reported on ANV's acquisition of Specialty Comp Insurance Solutions and Associated Specialty Insurance Agency to build its US workers' compensation platform, its acquisition of Iris Insurance Brokers to add UK distribution capabilities, and the rebranding of its combined workers' comp businesses as ANV Comp.
The CCP deal extends that buildout into an entirely different product line, vehicle warranty and protection products, and a significantly larger international footprint than any of the prior 2026 transactions.
For brokers and dealer network partners currently placing motor warranty business through CCP, the change in ownership from AmTrust to ANV is the primary near-term consideration.
CCP's management team, led by Russell, is staying in place, and both sides framed the transaction as a platform for continued growth rather than an operational restructuring.
Brokers with existing CCP relationships should expect continuity in underwriting and claims handling while watching for any changes in capacity or appetite as ANV integrates the business into its broader platform over the coming year.
