PHOENIX and BOSTON, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CopperPoint Insurance Company ("CopperPoint") and General Indemnity Group ("GIG") today announced the successful completion of CopperPoint's acquisition of GIG from Boston Omaha Corporation (NYSE: BOC), creating an expanded specialty insurance and surety platform serving customers and distribution partners nationwide. CopperPoint is a leading Arizona-based specialty provider of workers' compensation and commercial insurance solutions. GIG's subsidiaries include United Casualty & Surety Insurance Company ("UCS"), surety placement platform BOSS Bonds and SuretyBonds.Market, a proprietary technology platform developed by GIG.
The closing follows the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions. Adding nationwide commercial and contract surety expertise strengthens CopperPoint's growing footprint and construction risk solutions, while BOSS Bonds and SuretyBonds.Market provide a seamless digital experience to access and place surety bonds of all types and sizes. Customers and distribution partners will benefit from broader product capabilities, expanded underwriting capacity, enhanced digital service options and access to additional specialty insurance solutions.
"This is an exciting milestone for both organizations and the customers and partners we serve," said Kellen Booher, President & CEO of CopperPoint and its related companies. "GIG brings experienced surety professionals, nationwide capabilities, and a best-in-class platform that makes placing bonds easier than ever. By combining those strengths with CopperPoint's Property & Casualty solutions, significant financial strength and commitment to service, we are creating new opportunities to deliver value and support the long-term success of our customers, distribution partners, employees and communities. Our commitment to that growth is demonstrated by the additional capital we are contributing to further strengthen and expand our surety offerings."
Since its founding in 2015, GIG has built a nationally recognized surety platform through its combination of underwriting expertise, surety placement capabilities, and proprietary technology to serve customers, agents, brokers, subagents, and market partners in all 50 states and Washington, D.C.
"Today marks an exciting next chapter for our teams," said Dave Herman, President of GIG.

We couldn't be more excited to be part of the CopperPoint team."
Customers and distribution partners will continue working with the teams, products, and platforms they know while benefiting from the combined organization's broader capabilities, expanded resources, and enhanced market reach.
