Ohio-based Golden Eagle Insurance and Innovative Risk Solutions are merging to form a new company, Unitas Financial Services. The merger is expected to be completed by Jan. 1, 2021.
Innovative Risk Solutions is headquartered in DeBary, Florida. Both companies are focused on the specialty insurance space for financial institutions and real estate investors.
The ownership team of Golden Eagle President Bill Jones, Innovative Risk Solutions President Lisa Cooper, and Greg Shimkus, EVP of Innovative Risk Solutions have partnered on several projects the past 20 years and felt like the timing was right to take the next step and merge the two companies. Together they bring nearly 100 years of experience to the industry.
Unitas, pronounced [yoo-NI-tahs], is a Latin word that means “Oneness or Unity.” The company will be headquartered in Johnstown, Ohio, which has been the home of Golden Eagle Insurance since its inception.
The company also has offices in DeBary, Florida, (Innovative Risk Solutions headquarters); Dublin, Ohio; Ashland, Kentucky; Greensboro, North Carolina; Allen, Texas; Fort Lauderdale, Florida; and Encampment, Wyoming. A new office is opening in Denver, Colorado, this summer. Unitas has plans for more regional offices around the country in 2021 and beyond.
Golden Eagle Insurance, founded in 1995, provides loan portfolio protection and other insurance solutions to financial institutions.
Founded in 2006, Innovative Risk Solutions offers insurance products and services to both financial institutions and private real estate property portfolios.
