What trmg | the risk management group does

TRMG (The Risk Management Group, Inc.) is a privately held, Florida-based insurance brokerage and advisory firm founded in 2012 by Frank Acosta in Miami. The company operates a full-service, multi-line insurance and workforce solutions platform spanning four core product pillars: Personal Insurance (homeowners, auto, umbrella, flood, yacht, and personal aircraft), Commercial Insurance (property, casualty, workers' compensation, professional liability, D&O, cyber, surety, and specialty construction/real estate/hospitality lines), Employee Benefits (group health, dental, vision, disability, life, and 401K), and PEO/Human Capital Management services delivered through the TRMG Workforce Solutions division (payroll, HR administration, recruiting, training, risk management, and benefits management). The firm also operates a specialty Aviation & Aerospace Insurance line covering hull, liability, drone operators, airport general liability, and airshow coverage. Ancillary community-facing programs include the Concierge referral network, Rewards referral incentives tied to charitable donations, and a Community Cause initiative.

The business operates on a commission-based brokerage model, earning revenue from insurance carriers for policy placement across P&C and benefits lines, supplemented by professional-services fees from its PEO/HCM division. Distribution is hybrid: licensed agents and account executives drive direct consultative sales through phone, online quote forms, and in-person consultations at five Florida offices, while community-led channels (Concierge Program, Rewards Program, Community Magazine, and social media) generate lower-cost leads and brand awareness. No proprietary platform, SDK, API, or app is referenced, indicating reliance on standard industry tooling. The firm holds CCPA certification for privacy compliance.

TRMG serves commercial businesses of all sizes, individual and family clients, aviation industry participants (operators, airports, maintenance facilities, drone companies), and businesses seeking outsourced HR/payroll services. The geographic footprint is concentrated entirely within Florida, with offices in Miami (headquarters and secondary office), Deerfield Beach, Davie, and St. Petersburg. Leadership is founder-led under Frank Acosta (President & CEO), with Genir Ruiz leading Workforce Solutions, Juan Carlos Bellon leading Employee Benefits, and Melissa Acosta as Vice President. The company has scaled to over $100 million in managed annual premium and has expanded its service portfolio through strategic acquisitions into Employee Benefits and HCM, positioning itself as a one-agency solution for insurance and workforce needs across South Florida.

Broad incumbents

• Brown & Brown, Inc. Large publicly traded insurance brokerage headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida, with deep P&C, employee benefits, and specialty practices across the U.S. Highly comparable as a Florida-rooted brokerage competing for the same regional commercial and personal accounts as TRMG, but operating at far greater scale.
• Hub International: PE-backed insurance brokerage and advisory platform with strong P&C, employee benefits, and specialty practices across North America. Comparable as a multi-line brokerage competitor pursuing M&A to expand regional density in markets like Florida.
• Acrisure: PE-backed, tech-enabled insurance brokerage that has rapidly consolidated regional agencies. Comparable as a direct competitor in M&A-driven brokerage roll-up, especially for Florida-based tuck-in targets adjacent to TRMG.
• Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. Global insurance brokerage and risk management firm with significant U.S. middle-market and specialty practices. Highly comparable in product breadth (P&C, benefits, risk advisory, aviation/specialty), though operating at substantially larger scale than TRMG.
• Marsh McLennan: Global insurance brokerage and risk advisory firm. Comparable as a full-service risk management, insurance placement, and benefits competitor to TRMG, particularly relevant for complex commercial accounts and aviation/specialty risks.
• Lockton Companies: Largest privately held insurance brokerage in the U.S., with strong specialty and benefits practices including aviation. Comparable as a private, full-service brokerage competitor with overlapping specialty (aviation) and benefits capabilities.

• Insperity: Publicly traded PEO and HCM provider offering payroll, benefits, HR, and risk management to SMBs. Directly comparable to TRMG Workforce Solutions division in service mix and target SMB client, though at significantly larger national scale.
